BOWDEN, R.I.P. AT CLEMSON
Tommy Bowden, out at Clemson: film at eleven, etc, but TigerIllustrated is reporting it like it’s done, meaning they must have resolved the issue of his $4 million dollar buyout. Dabo Swinney would be the interim coach in the meantime, and with a name like that, you are always the interim coach, and never the coach.
The fail is up to here, which means I’m fired.
Update: This is, according to Joe Schad, the text Cullen Harper sent him:
I just found out. It’s what he deserves. Dabo Swinney is good man who will do a good job.”
Knives out, Cullen. Knives out! The Tommy Bowden Death Index has been appropriately updated, but damn, damn, damn: this doesn’t seem to be difficult for anyone at Clemson, does it? Also, if you want a particular blogspot address it should be available shortly.

Coach Tommy, sitting quietly in his office contemplating being fired, thinks that he nearly made it ten full seasons, has a $4M buyout…
“Ooh, baby, you are so talented! And they are so DUMB! “

Isn’t it customary to wait till after a coach loses to Georgia Tech to fire them?

I suppose there was no reason to continue the farce any longer.
Now one must query respecting the similarity between Dabo Sweeney (?!?!?!? WTF?!) and Bill Stewart. One assumes a temprary boost, but…

Sure hope he doesn’t skitter off to some NFL team as a coordinator like Dirk Koetter. I want the Bitch Mentality to have and keep its place in college football.

Tommy Bowden could have taken the 2001 Miami Hurricanes to a 4-7 record, and thats being generous..
Nick Saban says he cant take credit for that one, but he will take credit for the next two: Tubbs and Fulmer….We like to call these firings the “Saban Effect”, when one coach gets hired, others get fired….especially across state……but I am still laughing at that fake Nickelback video of “Photograph”…the lyrics are improved and so is the vocal rendition….

It’s about time.
He cared more about getting them to church on Sunday than in the end zone on Saturday.
Not that the two have to be mutually exclusive….
