Legendary basketball announcer Dick Vitale showed some love to Clemson men’s basketball head coach Brad Brownell this week.
On Monday, Vitale released his list of weekly accolades via social media — Dickie V’s Stars of the Week — and Brownell was named Vitale’s coach of the week.
This past week, Brownell led the Tigers to a pair of wins over previously undefeated teams, with Clemson beating South Carolina, 72-67, on Wednesday in Littlejohn Coliseum before defeating TCU, 74-66, on Saturday in the Hall of Fame Series Toronto.
Brownell has guided the Tigers (9-0, 1-0 ACC) to their best start since the 2008-09 season.
Saturday’s win over TCU marked the 250th victory at Clemson for Brownell, the program’s all-time winningest coach who’s currently in his 14th campaign in charge of the Tigers.
