Clemson basketball has hit a rough patch over the last 10 days.

For the third straight game, Clemson basketball got absolutely embarrassed on the court – there is no other way to say it, they stunk.

That said, I don’t know what is more embarrassing the program’s effort after a 10-day layoff from covid or the reaction from local media and fans as they continue to make excuses for a team that has the talent and experience to win.
