Buddy of mine married his granddaughter 2 years ago. Was lucky enough to get to talk to him and get a picture with the GOAT. RIP

A great journey for this coach. Very few will ever reach his stature. R.I.P. & thanks for the memories.

My guess is it was "he-was-90-years-old-and-had-looked-frail-for-a-long-time" related.

Dude actually worked out his wife before they were married. Had her show him her backpeddle. When asked why, he said if we have boys, they might be defensive backs. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconbow.gif)

Truly a legend but his physical abilities noticeably declined the last few years it makes sense but damn

When I think of all the games he coached 4 come to mind. The 1969 SB loos to the Jets, the SB win to cap a perfect season, the epic playoff game with the Chargers in 1982 , and them beating the Bears on MNF in 1985. Great great coach.

My parents were acquaintances of Shula and his family back when they lived down there years ago.
They always said he was a good, decent person.

I've never heard anyone ever say an unkind word about Don Shula. RIP to a true gentleman.

RIP, Coach Shula.
Always seemed like a class act.
Hated to hear this news.

On top of being able to adapt offensively his defenses were very good. You don't get to .667 winning percentage over 30 plus years without having great defense...the No Names and the Killer B's

I remember watching that Monday Night game against the Bears. It showed what good coaching could do.
