Brad Brownell enters his 10th season in charge of the Clemson men’s basketball program in 2019-20. The Evansville, Ind., native was named the 22nd men’s basketball coach at Clemson University on April 13, 2010.
In nine seasons at Clemson, he has compiled a 169-127 record, taken the Tigers to the 2018 Sweet 16, 2011 NCAA Tournament and three NIT appearances. He is No. 1 in Clemson coaching history in terms of winning percentage against ACC competition and his 80 wins over ACC teams are the most-ever in program history.
