More About the Author

Bobby Bowden is known as much for his affable charm as he is for his championship teams. Having coached young men in seven decades, he is the second-winningest coach in major college football history. Bowden guided Florida State University to more than three hundred victories, two national championships, twelve Atlantic Coast Conference titles, finishing in the top five in the country in fourteen straight seasons, and he also led the Seminoles to Bowl Games in twenty-eight consecutive seasons during his thirty-four-year tenure. The patriarch of college football's most famous coaching family, Bowden remains heavily involved in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, annually awarding The National Bobby Bowden Award to a student-athlete for achievement on and off the field, including his conduct as a faith model in the community. Bowden was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2006. He and his wife of sixty-one years, Ann, live in Tallahassee, Florida.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not interesting to this Bowden fan, May 30, 1998

This review is from: More Than Just a Game (Hardcover)
I thought this book was very boring and it just seemed to drag on and on. I do like Bobby Bowden and the Seminoles, but this book did not pique my interest at all. There is alot of stuff about God and The Bible when there could have been more of an inside look at the FSU program. email if you have any questions.
