Brownell started at Clemson in 2010. He’s made the tournament 4 times. This year will be 5. During those same 15 years, Cronin has made the tournament 12 times. This year will be 13. He would’ve made it the Covid season, so 14 times in 15 years. If you don’t want to include the Covid year, he’s at 13 times in 14 years. 

I don’t understand the Cronin discourse. Sure I’d love to love the new coach’s personality after four years of Woodson, but making the tournament every year would get me over it. 

Compare them to Crean who was fired and it looks even worse.  Cronin would not last.  He's Tom Crean but much shorter.

Bet Texas would have loved to have seen that notebook since they hired him without reservation.

Turned out well, didn’t it?

I’m hoping this is sarcasm on your part…

If I had a band, I would name it “Too Many Johnsons”.  Only I would sometimes bill us as “Two Mini Johnsons”.

Wait. What? :)

IU took one look at that title game appearance and said absolutely not.

I’m kicking around the idea of an annual BTB free-for-all day. Think of it as our very own purge. Lock down the site so no new accounts can join and one special thread is open to just get absolutely buck wild. Conspiracies, crazy insider stories, the whole nine yards. If you have a problem with someone? Hash it out. 24 hours of unmoderated madness and then the thread is deleted forever. I think it would be good for us. 

(This is the first the other mods have heard of this. I’m off a strong cup of coffee and riffing this morning)

Compare who to Crean? Cronin? Cronin’s resume since 2010 blows Crean’s IU tenure out of the water.

“Goobmanhoofs”

And the name is Jeff Goobman too

I would genuinely love a JFK assassination conspiracy theory thread here lol.

Joking, obviously. But it would be a treasure trove of internet weirdness. 

Man, BTB is the gift that keeps on giving... never a dull moment, for sure!

Not the point, how could IU have found such damaging material on him and Texas just came up empty?

Maybe they didnt come up empty and they were willing to overlook it and take a chance

Why cause he had one lucky run like Crean did? At least Crean won a few B1G championships.
