Kevin White new AD at Charlotte

Just another interesting point, not related to our new AD, Clemson has been a really good football program!

Became great when they landed two suburban Atlanta QB’s! Being able to go into Atlanta and landing those guys was key.

Their soccer program knocked ours out of the NCAA tournament a couple of times during his tenure.

I’m still a little bit butthurt about it. Love beating them when we get a chance, though it’s difficult.

Clemson softball was a startup wasn’t? I know women’s lax was and it has gone up the polls much like Clemson softball.

Clemson hired softball coach John Rittman in 2017 and began play in 2020.

Can we assume that he will be introduced at Wednesday night’s Men’s BB pregame hospitality?

I try not to judge until I see the product. Not sure I’ve ever been excited about a football recruit and not sure I’ve been excited about a hoops recruit in about 20 years….

I guess it really doesn’t matter but if you announce a new AD shouldn’t the press conference be within 48 hours? Shouldn’t the new AD already be doing the media rounds by now?

Kinda wonder if it was planned for Thursday and leaks forced the need for an official announcement earlier than wanted.

That was my assumption as well Mac.

Things are probably going exactly as planned.

Biancardi said that we had been moving up conferences… first the colonial then the A10 and now the American.

I stopped listening after that.
