Brownell says Tigers have to recruit better, thankful fans are sticking with program

Clemson head coach Brad Brownell understands the optics of a season full of struggles, and he’s asking for the fans see the fight his team while continuing to stick with the program.

The Tigers have lost four consecutive games since a win over Florida State to start the month of February, and three of those losses came at home during a five-day stretch last week. The Tigers lost a heartbreaker to North Carolina in the final seconds, then lost in blowout fashion to Duke and Notre Dame to end the week.

The Tigers are dealing with the loss of starter Hunter Tyson (broken clavicle) and were without the services of senior starter David Collins against Notre Dame, after he was suspended by the ACC for one game following a hard foul against Duke’s Wendell Moore, Jr.
