RIP

He arrived my sophomore year. It was fun watching him rebuild the program.

I was a Gator fan all my adult life, beginning in 1979 when I first moved to FL, frankly for no particularly good reason. Bobby Bowden was the best argument for choosing the Noles instead. By God’s grace I will see him one day where he is, and where our Lord is. RIP.

Wonderful man. The world needs more like him.

Texas Tech v Florida State was my first college football game when I was a freshman.

[bray]

Did he get the jab because of his age?

I recall a documentary about Bowden years ago in which it was mentioned somewhat jokingly that after the University of Florida refused to play the University of Miami ever again that Bobby's tombstone would read "But I played Florida"

[NohSpinZone]

I learned from the movie “We Are Marshall” what a class act Bobby was to that program after the horrific plane crash decimated the team. Bobby was the head coach at West Virginia then.

God bless Bobby and may he rest in peace.

May all of his team’s field goal attempts in Heaven never go wide right.

Farewell, to a fine Christian man, and a worthy opponent all those years.

[libertylover]

An offensive genius IMO. RIP.

[Big Red Clay]

My beloved Huskers had some great battles against FSU with Bowden at the helm. He was a great coach and a class act.

RIP Coach. Godspeed from Husker Land.

Gonna have one helluva coaching staff Up There! Bobby, say hello to Knute, George, Evy, Vince, Bo, Woody, Ara, Bear, Darrell, Bud and all the rest. RIP coach Bowden...job well done.

I guess he's up there discussing football with Walter Camp, Stagg, Joe Paterno (met him, family friend) and Bear Bryant...

Prayers to his family...
