Reasons Why Tommy Bowden IS Clemson's Coach!!!!!


Oct 4, 2005, 4:37 PM

2003 – Team won 5 out of last 6 games, including wins over top 10 teams FSU and Tennessee. Also blew out rival South Carolina (63-17).

2004 – Team won 5 out of last 6 games including wins over top 10 ranked Miami and rival South Carolina (29-7).

Tommy owns the Gamecocks, winning 5 of the last 6 games, an 83.3% winning record. This is the best win percentage vs. the Gamecocks of any head coach in Clemson’s history. His teams have put two of the worst beatings ever on the Gamecocks.

With an overall winning record of 63-33 (65.3%), Bowden ranks 10th among winningest active coaches. His overall conference record is 39-21 (65%).

At Clemson, Tommy is 44-29 (60.3%) through 2004. even while trying to rebuild a program and playing catch-up with facilities.

Tommy’s 44 victories at Clemson place him 3rd among Clemson coaches, only trailing Frank Howard and Danny Ford.

Since 1999, Tommy has won 28 conference games, second only to his father at FSU.

Tommy has been ACC Coach of the Year twice in his tenure at Clemson. Only Frank Howard, Charlie Pell, and Danny Ford have accomplished the same.

Bowden coached 3 wins over top-10 programs in just 13 games (FSU, Tenn., Miami). This has only been accomplished one other time – 1981 National Championship team. (All three had won a National Championship in the last 7 years.)

Holds the 6th highest attendance average in Death Valley since his arrival. Avg attendance = 79,000.

5 consecutive Bowl games and eligible 6 times. (Thanks South Carolina – you morons.)

Graduated over 75% of scholarship seniors, never before matched in Clemson history. Clemson ranked 11th in the nation in this category.

Records broken under his watch are too numerous to mention.

Recruiting classes looking brighter and brighter as Clemson continues to improve facilities and restore pride.
