He was one of the most likeable coaches ever. Just seemed like a good dude.

From 1987 till 2001 his team finished in the top 5 every year….. STFU…..

In the 90's, FSU was like Clemson is today. But they were that way for over a decade going into the early 2000's.

Honestly kind of a sad loss. He always seemed like a great guy who told it like it was. 1990's cool.

There's a bit of nostalgia in that era I guess. But dang there were some awesome men who loved the game. I can only imagine at 91 what he had to say about where it's all headed.

RIP Coach Bowden
He took a program that lost EVERY game. hey had no history. Everyone played them for homecoming. He actually did build a program.

Unprecedented? He won two national championships! I get that it is a eulogy, but for goodness sake, keep it real.

I never heard that story before. Good stuff

When he was building FSU they would play anyone, anywhere. When Nebraska was one of the best teams in the country FSU went to Lincoln 2 years in a row and won both. Put the 'Noles on the map

He was a competitor and a great family man. Rest in God’s peace Coach Bowden.

This statement within its context represents the epitome of a miserable person.
That’s keeping it real.

Fact…….when he got there in 1976 they were coming off seasons of 1-10 And 0-11. By 1979 they were playing Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl… amazing…. Dare I say that’s even better than what Saban did at Bama.

I have never liked FS ever, but GDamn the man could coach - i respect him for that. RIP to one of the greats

Good times. That’s when a sport was a sport!

RIP coach!

What a legend. Being at an age where he and Paterno were giants in college football, I'm especially grateful for Bobby considering he was actually a great man. RIP

RIP to a good old boy who made good in life and his career.

I got to see Coach Bowden on the sideline once. Unfortunately it was the BAMA/FSU game from 2007 in Jacksonville. Worst football game ever
