The last gasp of excitement in Clemson’s basketball season evaporated when the Tigers blew a huge lead in the ACC tournament and lost to NC State, effectively ending any potential of making the NCAA tournament and sending them to NIT. After an uncomfortably close win against Wright State in the opening round, Clemson’s season came to a premature close when they lost to Wichita State in Littlejohn Coliseum in the second round of the NIT.
Whenever a season far exceeds or falls fall short of our expectations, there’s a little more to dissect. This year certainly falls into the latter category so Calvin Craft and I will break it down and understand where it went wrong and where it is headed.
