Clemson is a football school. I thank the big man above for that. Waking up on a home football Saturday knowing that Death Valley will be packed full of passionate fans cheering on the Tigers warms my heart. I certainly wouldn’t want to be like Duke, where they ask visiting fans how to find the football stadium (this is a true story). With that being said, we’ve got ourselves a emerging basketball program coming off its first Sweet 16 appearance since the 1997 NCAA tournament. Not only that, they’re an especially likable bunch. They deserve our passion and love too.
