The 2015-’16 basketball season at Clemson came to a close like a snap of the fingers on Sunday night. The finality of it was that fast and that sudden.
Though many of you felt like the basketball season was over minutes after the Tigers’ overtime loss to Georgia Tech, in the second round of last Wednesday’s ACC Tournament. Clemson itself felt as if an NIT bid was very much a possibility.
Despite four losses in its final five games, Clemson did finish in a tie for sixth-place with Virginia Tech in the ACC standings. It had 17 regular season wins, plus it was 10-8 in conference play.
