He averaged 10 and 0.5 and 0.5.

I know he got booted mid season after five losses two four ranked teams, two in the top 5 and another in the top 10, and wasn't allowed to complete the year. And was replaced by an interim that continued to do just as bad. To Thamel's point, he was booted after one bad season, just like every coach that proceeded him, except he wasn't even given the chance to right the ship.

A .731 win percentage is better than Dye, better than Tuberville, better than Chizik, better than Heisman, Shug, or Donahue.

He won football games at Auburn. Lots of 'em.
Again also not why he was fired.

That season was not why he was fired.  He was fired because he had made a shambles of recruiting network, every high school coach hated his guts, we were recruiting 145lb running backs.  We were heading down a black hole that would have set us back years.   I was there...at least Chizik could recruit.

This^^^  When the coach who follows you publically says he's never seen so little talent on an SEC team....there was a huge problem.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

I can't argue this BUT I'm not so sure Bowden was canned mid season. There are two sides to that story. One side is that Bowden knew he was likely gone at the end of the season and when he didn't receive the security that he wanted, he chose to leave. That's the side I believe. And I think this hurt his career by doing so.

I believe he was still there but no one could see him behind the furniture.  They assumed he left.

It wasn't until he started to peak out past the sides of the furniture.

He couldn't hide behind an entertainment center any more.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

And I think this hurt his career by doing so.

I know this for an absolute fact.  He went in, asked for a commitment and/or an extension because he knew things were a mess.  When the administration told him they would not discuss the matter until after the season was over, he said he would walk out unless they gave him assurances right then and there. He got none and made good on his threat.

All of that is irrelevant to me. '93 alone is enough to cement him in the Auburn coaching HOF (along with everyone except Barfield since Shug). Having the best record amongst all of them is icing.
