Is Tommy Bowden that bad of a coach?

Tommy Bowden is ranked as one of the worst coaches by SI.com. Article HERE.
Here is what it says:

3) Tommy Bowden, Clemson: How does a team with James Davis, C.J. Spiller and Gaines Adams manage to lose four of its last five? How does a program with Clemson's resources fail to crack 8-4? And how has Bowden managed to survive half a decade on the hot seat?


I have to agree. CU has two of the best running backs, probably second to Ark-Kansas, and they fail to win games. Mr. Harper's sole job this year at QB for CU should be to hand off to Davis and Spiller. Mix in a throw and run the I....simple. Some fans up here in the upstate say clemson will go 9-3...any chance?

What do you think? Does he deserve it? Thoughts on the rest of the article by Stewart Mandel?

8-4 ... Bowden won't stick to the run (even when the crowd is chanting for RUN! RUN! RUN!)

6-6

i feel if he goes 6-6 or does not win at least 8 games he should be fired. Enough is enough and the clemson faithful is out for blood since they dropped so hard after last year.

The schedule is set up to win. As said before Harper should simply be there to throw 20 passes per game to keep the defense in check and the rest of the time simply hand off to Spiller / Davis.
