Clemson coach Brad Brownell is seeking to replace the Tigers top scorers — again.

It seems like a treadmill the third-year coach can’t escape. When he took over the team after the 2010 season, star Trevor Booker (Union County) was off to the NBA and seniors Jerai Grant and Demontez Stitt took on the scoring load. After Grant and Stitt left, Clemson’s senior backcourt of Andre Young and Tanner Smith took over.

Now, Brownell will look to his only two seniors this winter in forwards Devin Booker (Union County) and Milton Jennings to carry the scoring load, something they haven’t always done in the past.

“It’s not something you wish, you always want to have a couple of scorers back, Brownell said Wednesday. Certainly, it’s been kind of case in my tenure here that we’re always starting over a little bit with our scoring. It’s not going to be any different this year.”
