TB admittedly did not have the ambition to coach a long time

He did, when he took the job, he thought he'd be at CU...

10 years or so.
It had plenty to do with what he witnessed at WVU, when they were mercilessly attacking his father.

He always said he had interests he wanted to pursue outside of coaching. It's just tough to say due to recruiting and such. But he publicly stated he that didn't want to coach past 60.
He could've gotten plenty of other jobs after Clemson.

Why take another job when you were getting big contract money for years without lifting a finger?

I would have no problem at all with a buyout and living in Clemson participating with Clemson football day to day. Sounds like a fine gig to me!!

I hope Terry wins rings every year he is here and wears them to every family outing the Bowdens have.

I had enjoyed our few Bowden free years. No Booby or anyone at Clemson. Alas that ends now.

I always refer to the old man that way. I think he is a pure snake oil salesman.

Great point. I was more referring to physical characteristics.

i wish someone could really "pick" tommy bowdens brain. he said good things just then--but( i dont think) he has ever said that he still likes clemson or loves clemson or anything really positive about us..im thinking he keeps the political answer...so as not to appear on either side of the coin

I’m excited to have Terry Bowden on the staff. Still have a strong dislike for Tommy though.***
