i don't think there was a mystery. I was there there. It was his and his wife's alcohol addiction. I was in his house and saw first hand on Sat. night after a Tennessee game. It was sad, but history is history. I admired Bowden until I realized what his drinking was doing to UT football and the alumni. Yes I wonder what might have been if he had quit drinking that got worse after Neyland died. Unfortuantely this article implies that it was his refusal to go to the T formation.
