I wish I could go., dang. Bobby Bowden is my favorite coach in any sport ever. The way that man ran his teams is how everyone of us should live our lives. After reading his book, I learned how religious of a man he was and how he would use certain bible verses in different situations with his life and football teams. He is, IMO, the best college football coach EVER.

I was at the 1998 FCA breakfast for the Fiesta Bowl BCS championship game with both FSU and the Vols present. Coach Bowden and former Congressman / Oklahoma quarterback JC Watts spoke that morning. Both were great speakers. I Always liked Bobby.

How old are you? Never mind. I just looked at your public profile and got my answer. There is much in life you have yet to learn and experience, young friend.

are you confusing Florida State with Miami ?

the worst thing i can remember about FSU is the free shoes thing which hardly puts them in the dirtiest program category.

Am I missing something ?

Academic scandal that forced him to vacate wins. Not sure of his connection to it other than involving football players.

I love Bowden. I think he's a great coach. There aren't too many programs that can match what FSU did in the 90's.

It's more than just those two. Former players from the 98 champ team will be there. They are having open discussion and replay of plays on the big screen with discussion. All to benefit St. Jude's.

He reached out and really helped Marshall after that devastating plane crash. And I love thick Southern accents. I don't really have one myself because I have lived in so many places/countries. I do get a small one when I go home to Middle-Tennessee. Yeah, it's still home after 30 years on the road.

I know many frown upon Hyams, but he and Wilkerson are KILLING IT with the interviews. I tuned in late as I was listening to Swain. But I've caught interviews with Big Al Wilson, Jeff Hall, and they are currently interviewing Coach Cut. All telling individual stories from the 98' season.
