Notes:

Garrett Boulware was drafted in the 42nd Round by San Deigo.  Boulware was ranked as the 5th best prospect in the state of South Carolina by John Manual of Baseball America.  Boulware is consider more of a polished defensive prospect at this time, but still has the making of a catcher who can also contribute with the bat.

Daniel Gossett was drafted in the 16th Round by the Boston Red Sox.  Gossett was ranked as the 2nd best prospect in state of South Carolina by John Manual of Baseball American.  Gossett was dominate for much of the season going 9-0 with a .44 ERA with Byrnes until getting roughed up in the 4A State Championship Game. 

Trevor Kieboom is the younger brother of current Tiger, Spencer Kieboom.  Trevor is already enrolled and on campus.  Kieboom can play infield as well as pitch, but right now the plan is to have Trevor work from the mound.

Daniel Norris was drafted in 2nd Round by the Toronto Blue Jays.  Norris was projected as a Top 20-25 pick in the draft, but slid into the second rounds due to concerns on his signability and bonus demands.  Norris was reported asking for close to $4 Million, so their is a decent chance that Norris could end up at Clemson come Fall. 

Jackson Whitley was drafted in the 13th Round by the Los Angeles Angels.  Whitley was considered a Top 10 prospect in the state of South Carolina by Baseball America.  UPDATE: Whitley signed with the Angles on June 13th, 2011.

Clemson Swimming Update - Donation To Save Program Rebuffed

Here is an update to a story (below) that was written on October 21st about the Clemson Swimming program and its battle to remain as a varsity sport at Clemson. 

A large donor offered a large sum of money in the form of an endowment to the university in order to fund the construction of a Olympic size swimming pool at Clemson.  The donation was large enough to both complete the construction of the pool and fund the program for years, but after considering the generous offer President Barker decided that they couldn't reverse their decision to terminate the program. 

Meanwhile the pool in Fike has been closed since 2010 with cracks and leaks in the structure.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On April 30th 2010, the Clemson Athletic Director, Terry Don Phillips, announced via a press release that the Clemson’s Men’s and Women’s Swimming teams were being phased out after the 2011-2012 academic year. According to Phillips, the reason for eliminating the program was that “Having an Olympic size pool has become most important in swimming. We have made a decision not to build a 50-meter pool, and thus feel our program is in a state where it will be very difficult to compete at the highest level in the ACC and nationally.”

Men’s and Women’s Swimming has a long history at Clemson. The program was established in 1918 and reached its pinnacle in the 1980s. During this era, the program captured 4 ACC Championships while boosting multiple individual ACC Champions and 2 Olympians. The program hasn’t been as successful in recent years, failing to capture an ACC Championship since 1997; however, the Tigers have been showing improvement under Head Coach Chris Ip, and have always been outstanding representatives for Clemson and the surrounding community. Clemson Swimmers have dominated the ACC Academic Honor Roll and lead all Clemson sports with 56.5% of the team making the list. Honorees from the swimming program include twelve 4.0 scholar athletes and five Academic All ACC students. In addition to excellence in the classroom, the swimming program leads all Clemson sports in community service.

Even if you don’t have strong feelings about the decision to eliminate the swimming program, the process by which the decision was researched and handled by Clemson’s Athletic Department should be infuriating and is just another symptom of the poor leadership from the top of the university down. I recently had an opportunity to exchange emails with swimming supporters behind the website Save Clemson Swimming (Save Clemson Swimming). Through these conversations, I was able to gather more information on how the decision was reached and was shocked by the lack of time and research that was put into a decision of such magnitude.

Phillips was asked to do an economic feasibility study on all Clemson sports programs by taking into account coaching, recruiting, and facilities. Phillips alludes to this in the press release announcing the decision. It was determined from that initial study that swimming and diving presented the biggest long-term financial challenge to make the team more competitive, due to a lack of a 50-meter swimming pool. The Athletic Department then briefly researched the cost to build the 50-meter swimming pool by looking into the costs to build similar pools at Florida State and UCLA. The costs on the surface were deemed too high, so the study was stopped without digging deeper into the numbers, and the decision to eliminate the program was made by the AD. No other facilities were bench marked. No consultants, pool contractors, or builders were asked to give their opinion on the cost to build a pool in South Carolina as opposed to Florida or California. No other options, such as building the facility piecemeal, were considered by the AD even though the majority of Clemson’s athletic facilities were built in this fashion.

The decision was made hastily without the necessary research and then announced with almost no warning catching the program off-guard. In fact, on April 23 2010, a mere 7 days prior to the announcement, North Augusta High School swimmer Hannah Collins signed a partial scholarship to swim at Clemson (Clemson Signs Collins). The coaches were literally out recruiting and signing athletes to swim at Clemson for the next 4 or 5 years while the AD was knee deep in plans to eliminate the program. The AD didn't even have the decency to tell the entire team in private prior to making the official announcement to the media. This lack of communication between the Athletic Department and Coach Ip and those involved with the swimming program is a sad turn of events that should never happen at a major university.

After the announcement was made on April 30th, the program and its supporters were told that money was not the motivating factor in eliminating the program. It was repeated by the AD that the primary reason for eliminating the program was its inability to be competitive in the long-term without a 50-meter pool. This reasoning seems odd considering that Clemson was coming off back-to-back Top 25 recruiting classes. It also begs the question that if the program isn’t a burden financially, then why does it need to be eliminated in the first place? Why can’t the program at least continue to operate under the status-quo into the immediate future while other options are explored? If all financial avenues were researched thoroughly, then perhaps in 5 or 10 years Clemson might be in a position to build an aquatic facility.

The lack of proper research and the subsequent handling of the decision to eliminate the Men’s and Women’s Swimming program is just another example of the void of competence in the Clemson Athletic Department. Taking into account the egregious lack of leadership and communication skills demonstrated by this administration throughout the process, it should not be shocking to anyone that Clemson has won a grand total of 9 ACC Championships under the Terry Don Phillips regime.

2011 MLB Draft - State Breakdown

California lead all states with 110 out of the first 500 players taken in the 2011 MLB Draft hailing from the Golden State.  Texas and Florida were tied for second with 52 players each followed by Georgia with 24 and North Carolina with 22.

Oklahoma had the highest number of players taken per capita with 3.20 players for every million in population.  Oklahoma had 12 players selected in the Top 500 and a population of 3.75 Million. This is for where the player is originally from not for where the prospect went to college.  California was second with 2.95 players taken for every one million in population followed by Rhode Island with 2.86. It is important to note that state with small populations like Rhode Island are likely to fluctuate tremendously from year to year.

Interesting for the South Carolina people that read the blog.  South Carolina only had two players selected in the first 10 rounds this year in Taylor Guerrieri and Michael Roth, but had 7 players selected late in the Top 500 to bolster their total to seven out of the Top 500.

Clemson Tigers Drafted In The 2011 MLB Draft

Brad Miller was among six Tigers selected in yesterday's portion of the MLB Draft.  Miller who was ACC Player of the Year and 1st Team All-American was selected with the second pick (#62) overall by the Seattle Mariners.  Will Lamb was selected shortly after Miller by the Texas Rangers with the #83 pick overall.  Lamb was drafted as a high-upside LHP after spending the majority of his career hitting for the Tigers.  John Hinson was selected in the 13th Round by the Houston Astros as a second baseman.  Three time 1st or 2nd Team All-ACC performer, Jeff Schaus  was selected in the 16th Round by the Los Angeles Dodgers.  The Cleveland Indians took a flyer on the often injuried, Kevin Brady, in the 17th Round.

The draft concludes today starting at 12 PM EST.

Pick	Name	Position	Team
#62	Brad Miller	SS	Seattle Mariners
#83	Will Lamb	LHP	Texas Rangers
#400	John Hinson	2B	Houston Astros
#494	Jeff Schaus	LF	LA Dodgers
#518	Kevin Brady	RHP	Cleveland Indians
#786	Joseph Moorefield	LHP	Kansas City Royals

Daniel Norris was among three Clemson recruits that were drafted yesterday as well.  Norris who was ranked as one of the top prep-pitchers in the draft was selected in the 2nd Round by the Toronto Blue Jays.  Norris slipped in the draft amid concerns of his signability as it is widely believed that Norris is looking for close to $4 Million in order to forgo his college eligibility.  Jackson Whitley a 1B out of North Augusta High (SC) was selected in the 13th Round by the Los Angeles Angels.  Daniel Gossett a LHP out Byrnes High (SC) of  was selected in the 16th Round by the Boston Red Soxs to round out the Tiger's recruits who were selected yesterday.  Joseph Moorefield was selected in the 26th Round by the Kansas City Royals.

Pick	Name	Position	Team
#74	Daniel Norris	LHP	Toronto Blue Jays
#405	Jackson Whitley	1B	LA Angels
#502	Daniel Gossett	LHP	Boston Red Soxs

Will Lamb selected #83 overall by the Texas Rangers.

Clemson Tiger LHP/OF was taken with the 83rd overall pick by the Texas Rangers.  Lamb primarily played OF for the Tigers, but was selected as a LHP by the Rangers.  Most scouts think Lamb has a bigger upside on the hill as opposed to at the plate although Lamb seems to prefer hitting to pitching.

5 Former Clemson Tigers Qualify For The US Open at Congressional

Former Clemson golfers, Elliot Gealy, David May and Sam Saunders qualified for the US Open on Monday.  The US Open will be contested from June 16th-19th at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland. 

Elliot Gealy and David May qualified out of the Rockville, Maryland sectional.  Gealy fired rounds of 70-65 to finish in 3rd place and May shot 68-68 to qualify on the number.  Also competing in that region, but failing to qualify were former Tigers, Ben Martin and Phillip Mollica. 

Sam Saunders qualified with rounds of 69-70 and then survived a playoff to be one of three golfers to qualify out of the Vero Beach sectional.

In the Columbus, OH sectional, former Tigers, Kyle Stanley and DJ Trahan failed to qualify.  Stanley narrowly missed qualify after being eliminated first in a 6 man playoff for the final three spots.

Gealy, May and Saunders will be joined at Congressional by Johnathan Byrd and Lucas Glover who both qualifed automatically for the event giving Clemson a total of 5 former Tigers in the tournament.  This will be the most former Tigers to play in a single US Open. The previous high was four in the 2009 US Open.
