Never got the CBB/Tommy Bowden comparisons


Mar 25, 2017, 9:15 AM

Brownell is much more like Tommy West to me. Likeable guy who really couldn't recruit and always had us around .500.
Tommy Bowden's era is more comparable to OP's era to me.

Tommy Bowden was a much better recruiter than Brownell. I agree with you.

I think that was Dabo working magic as WR coach for Bowden.

West signed some great players who never got to campus

Seemed like we were always getting excited about some recruit who couldn't get into school in those days.

Moreover, our expectations were lower as far as recruiting..


Mar 25, 2017, 9:40 AM

We would get excited about recruits that weren't even truly that big time, but we would build them up as fans. Idiris Price etc

Very true. Tommy had us ranked too. Last game we played as a ranked team was the Gameday game against Duke

Because there is none. He is more Tommy West for sure.*****

T. West comparison is dead on ...


Mar 25, 2017, 9:52 AM

Very likable and overmatched. Bowden had X's and O's coaching skills but lacked extrovert leadership personality and high likability ...

And they both got contact extensions towards the end of their tenure that will cost us millions in the end.
