Tommy Bowden contacted by FSU


Nov 30, 2017, 9:07 PM

I’m not joking. Multiple reports online. FSU looking at Taggert or Bowden to replace Jimbo

I wish they’d hire him. I really really do.

again when we played them if he was the coach.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think he would do fairly well there.


Nov 30, 2017, 9:14 PM

It would be better than the situation he had while at Clemson. The facilities and the recruiting would be better. He wouldn't be a threat to us because we are getting so elite, but he would do better there.

He doesn't know crap about football. Worst gameday coach in

Nov 30, 2017, 9:37 PM

at Clemson. He never had the talent. He may not have as much problem recruiting at FSU. That has to be one of the easier spots.

Coach Bowden at FSU has a nice ring to it.***

The main difference is we have a better defensive coaches

now, than we did back then. We are also playing better offense too, better system, better linemen,
but the main thing that has made us more elite is having a defense.

Defense is really necessary to win championships in most sports.

What would bother me a little bit is that he still beat big time teams in big time games on occasion. Not so sure I’d like him to be a trick play or two away from beating us every year.

Facilities at FSU are not great.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Compared to what he had at Clemson they are.


Nov 30, 2017, 9:34 PM

Moreover, they are upgrading. He will have way better talent too. It's a much better situation than he inherited at Clemson.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


Great, so we will kick FSU’s butt for years to come.

I always thought Tommy Bowden was a good football coach in terms of X's and O's. His teams always seemed to lack consistency and toughness. And when I saw him doing the ACC Network halftime show, I understood immediately why his players couldn't handle it in crunch time. He just doesn't inspire people. When I hear him talk, I want to turn away and watch something else. I don't think he'd be able to build a cohesive team that will go to the wall for him. Just my opinion. I'm sure FSU today is in better shape than Clemson was in 1999.

Tommy with RichRod, as a package, were a good duo. Without RichRod, he was mediocre. Always kept blaming the OC to get extra time and trying someone new.

UT should hire him as the new AD.

You are ight, while he had rr, they were becoming pretty tough to handle. After rr left, Bowden struggled.

I'd be happy for him if he went to flu. I've got no hard feelings against him.

This sounds like a great idea. I just faxed my letter of recommendation to the FSU AD to help support CTB.

Aside from the name Bowden that makes absolutely no sense at all.

Nov 30, 2017, 10:56 PM

Thebonly explanation I could see is name recognition. Also if they were trying to change the teams image. Or if they wanted to have him find the next Dabo

Re: Tommy Bowden contacted by FSU

He'd do a decent job and beat us every fifth or sixth game if he was lucky. But he'd never be daddy and would end up with FSU resenting him for lost glory. He should look somewhere else. Was glad to be rid of him at the time but he is a decent coach and decent guy, if a little ineffective in the big game and a little sanctimonious. I hope he has success somewhere but I can't see FSU going there after his being passed over by every team all these years.
