The culture a coach creates (positive or negative) is so fascinating to me. Some coaches just have "it" while others do not. Sounds like the elder Bowden lost the locker room at the time of his separation. I also never knew that he had offered to resign vs. being straight terminated.

You forgot wine, retirment and golf.
