TOMMY BOWDEN IS CHECKING YOU OUT
Tommy Bowden wants you to read this quote and then look at the picture below it.
On freshman Kyle Parker, a footballer who’s playing on the baseball team:
“I’ve watched him practice and I’ve watched him play (baseball). He’s really good looking. If I was a girl, I’d be very interested in him. He wears those tight pants. When you wear loose stuff, you can’t tell the definition of a guy’s body. In baseball, everything’s tight and you can tell he’s very well put together.”

My god, just look at him out there.
All of those years of living on the edge at Clemson are clearly beginning to erode his ability to censor his inner monologue. We’re actually hoping Clemson struggles a bit this year just to get more quotes just like this from Bowden, who seems very comfortable with his own sexuality in calling another man “very well put together.”
(HT: Dr. Strangecock, of course.)

I agree with Tommy Bowden.Kyle does look mighty fine in his baseball attire.But I am his girl friend for the past 4 years.

I get the feeling that Charlestowne Cock is very FGF-tastic after his theory about how the media is out to get USC athletics.
He could not respond to me because, well, logic and his brain don’t mix.

Sounds like a May-December “Bro”mance is brewing in Clemson!

I’m sooooo glad our coach didn’t say that.

Charlestowne, I’m not sure where the 187 came from, but thanks. While I am a diehard fan and have been all my life (also a 4th generation grad), I try to at least be realistic about our various sports programs. I stay away from Tigernet at all costs, but I do enjoy visiting FGF for the humor aspect.

Good to see a rational Clemson fan on here for once. Welcome.

Has anyone ever seen Tommy and Anderson Cooper together in the same room?

Contrafactual –> subjunctive: If I were a girl …

Okay, I graduated from Bartram Trail (Kyle’s old high school) last year, and this is probably the funniest thing I have ever read! Kyle’s nickname on the football team was “pretty boy” and I guess some coaches have decided to keep the name even though he has moved on to Clemson… nice.

Why is he in love with the white man? IF I was a brotha and not getting any man crushes from my coach, I’d feel racially slighted…matter of fact, I am calling Jesse Jackson on this glorious MLK day and letting him know “whats really going on in Clempson”

They warned him once about his drinking and subsequent gay nuances. In fact, that could possibly be labeled as verbal child abuse. Oh, wait, no nope…it’s South Carolina, that’s right. I believe the legal age in South Carolina, and correct me if I’m wrong, is 16….months.

Not Coop, but I’m pretty sure we brought Leggett in from ECU after Wilhelm retired. I could be wrong though. As for Corbin, he coaches at Vandy, and they have been pretty good for the past few years. I still think we could make a run at him though.

Subst Vandy for Uk in my above discussion.

Coop - Was Jack Leg one of Wilhelm’s coaches? Clemson has always had decent coaching.
I’d say 3 years ago, you could have made a play for Corbin to see if he would come back for a head coaching spot. If UK keeps up the progress they’re building, I don’t see him leaving for Clemson. Clemson would be a step up for him right now, but I bet he’s thinking not for long. Who was your former asst coach turned HC at ECU that pulled a gun (or whatever) in the parking lot and was fired by ECU? Was that Massey (sp)?

OOC, his bat has surprised all season. As for Bowden, I swear the guy tries to make it easy for people to make fun of him. Nobody can be that dumb in interviews right?…..right?…..sonofa…
Slacker, we actually had one of the top third-basemen in the country signed to come to Clemson, but he went pro instead. Apparently they offered more than our AD did.
