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.

Muschamp makes tons of sense.
Just out of curiousity, anyone else think maybe Lane Kiffin will sniff around this job? I mean, Clemson’s got the Defense, so why not get a new guy on Offense?
I’m just tossing this out for conversation, mostly.

He has owned Carolina during his tenure (7-2) but that’s about it. No reason for a lack of ACC trophies except his own inability to coach. If we are lucky maybe Brad Scott will step up…

On the bright side, the camera crews won’t have to continually pan to Mrs. (Bobby) Bowden during the upcoming FSU/Clemson game. I guess the Bowden legacy is now officially dead?

No clue what that means for the game this weekend, but maybe Clemson will show signs of life - since it sounds like the players couldn’t stand Tommy anymore.
Either way, it means the ACC gets another coaching upgrade this offseason. This league desperately needed new blood at the HC positions, and has been packing them in. Butch Davis, Paul Johnson and David Cutcliffe were all huge upgrades, and with Tommy Bowden gone we really only have to drop Al Groh to make the house cleaning complete.

ESPN is reporting that Cullen Harper’s reaction is: “It’s what he deserves.”
Ouch.

Hey Orson, I’ve been watching that Ted Nugent video you posted last wednesday for about 12 hours strait while studying for exams. Is this a bad thing?
