CFB Bobby Bowden

[P-Tizzle]

Diagnosed with a terminal disease. Bowden says, "I am at peace" with this news.

Correction: it's a terminal medical issue. Report didn't call it a disease.

Good man, good coach, but his terminal medical issue is he's 91 years old. We should all be that lucky.

Turned FSU into a dynasty. Was a good coach. A terrific recruiter. A solid tactician. A class act, always.

 

[prg3Kane]

He lived a long, fulfilled life. Respect.

 

[JD08]

The man had a good life. I wish him and his family all the best.

 

[423Hurricane]

Always had a lot of respect for Coach Bowden. Seemed to do things the right way and never ran away from playing us.

All the best to him and his family.

Probably the most respected coach in the game by most Canes fans. Prayer to Bobby and his family. Wide Right, too early?
Daggumit, shouldn't have done that.

Bowden's reaction is still one of the most memorable moments in college football. Show that clip of his reaction, and EVERY fan knows what was at stake.

Every year when a Booby Bowden thread pops up I expect it to say he gone. Welp!
RIP @The Franchise

One of the best! Nothing but respect and love.

Respect to Coach! College football was so much better with Miami and FSU at the top. Hope we get there again soon!

 

[atlantadan]

Sad news. Always the most respect for him and is a part of our competitive history. The sport will miss him

 

[Rellyrell]

He brought the best out us & and we brought the best out of them. No rivalry on the CFB level could match what UM vs FSU brought to the table. Both teams littered the field w/ future 1st rounders, perennial pro bowlers, and HOFers. Dude never ran away from us, unlike that soft *** school in Gaynesville.

 

[Samson Doyo]

Bowden is one of the all-time greats. I have tremendous respect for him. Keep fighting coach!

Go Canes!

 

[Eric The Midget]

Best of luck to the old man.

I want to be the person throwing the last shovel of dirt on his coffin....

 

[The Iceman]

One of the GOATs.
Sad to hear this.
