Legendary coach Bobby Bowden passes away

Sad news to report today. Former Florida State head coach Bobby Bowden has passed away at the age of 91 from pancreatic cancer.

Coach Bowden scarred me for life. Still have visuals of the punt rooskie game in my head and Deion Sanders prancing back punt returns ??

Bobby Bowden was a father figure to us all. He will be missed.

A great coach and a great man.

I always respected him even when FSU owned the ACC.

His quip battles with Spurrier were legendary, too

I didn’t enjoy losing to him but he was a legend! Football will look back at his era as the glory days before commercialism and me-ism took over and ruined it!

I went to Rock Springs Church where Bobby was speaking


Aug 8, 2021, 1:09 PM

Bobby and Tommy both spoke that evening about there faith, and trusting in the one who holds our lives in his hands. Bobby you will love my brother he's a huge Clemson fan he beat you to Heaven this year im sure he's probably already greeted you today or soon will.

The only bad thing - I can say about Coach Bobby Bowden is "PuntRooskie"
Butler for 78 yards-- A little part of my orange heart died that day!
He was a fantastic Coach and Great Man.
RIP Coach B!

Just echoing everyone else. Great man, class act, great coach. Like others, puntrooskie was brilliant but a heartbreaker.

Response to the reporters on Sebastian Janikowski breaking curfew and if he'd be suspended for the Natty. He said "you’re crazy if you think I’m benching my kicking machine for staying out late on Bourbon Street. A newly adopted “Warsaw rule” was what Bowden trotted out instead, laughing at the absurdity of it all.

“If we kick off, he will kick unless he has a heart attack — or I have one,” he said. “I do have a Warsaw rule: If he is breathing and alive, he will kick off."

Wide right wouldn't be part of that game !

RIP Bobby...you were always a class act .

RIP Coach Bowden!

His teams were always really "dad-gum" good! Liked to hear him when he got going too! Seemed like a very likable man and he will be missed around CFB.
