I saw a quick little story on ESPN about this, and couldn’t resist making a post about it. Terry Bowden, who hasn’t coached since 1998 — where he could recruit for Auburn like crazy, but couldn’t coach worth a damn — is looking to get back into coaching, and would love the opportunity to coach at West Virginia, where Rich Rodriguez has left everyone scratching their heads.

“I made a full commitment to get back into coaching almost two years ago. Coming home to West Virginia would obviously be the dream job for me,” Bowden, a college football analyst on radio and for Yahoo! Sports, said in a statement released by his publicist.

If Pat White returns, which is expected, and Steve Slaton rejoins him, which isn’t expected, this job will be a lot of people’s dream jobs. The problem? Terry Bowden isn’t exactly a “dream coach.” He wasn’t in ‘98. He definitely isn’t in ‘07.
