Former FSU football head coach Bobby Bowden had as much respect off the field as he had on the field.
I thought it would be appropriate to continue paying tribute to the man that made FSU football among the most prestigious brands in college football.
Coach Bowden was known for his humor, quick wit, and humility. Here are five quotes from the legend we can apply to everyday life.
-
Don’t goto the grave with life unused
I think Coach Bowden lived this quote to the fullest. He inspired and impact so many people during his coaching career. However, it didn’t stop then as he continued to do the same after he retired. The way he announced and faced his terminal illness was inspiring.
-
The greatest mistake is to continue practicing a mistake
Isn’t this quote the truth?
-
Discipline to me is sacrifice; it’s being willing to give up something you want to do, so you can better yourself
Another great quote we can apply on the football field or in life no matter our age.
-
He who gets the best players usually wins
This quote reminds me of Coach Bowden’s wit and charm, but also his humility while communicating he wouldn’t receive the accolades without the performance of his players.
-
I learned more from mistakes than from the good things
Again, another quote we can apply to our lives.
Parting Thoughts
I’ve read numerous comments from former players and coaches. Almost all of the comments refer to what Coach Bowden represented as a man, and I think that’s the greatest honor. I would also like to take time to give credit and praise to his wife, Ann.
It takes a special woman to be married to a football coach for over 70 years. She exemplified a couple of these quotes.
She sacrificed time away from her husband so he could do what he was put on this earth to do. At the same time, she raised a family and supported Coach Bowden every step of the way. I hope the Bowden family can find peace and celebrate, knowing Coach Bowden lived an extraordinary life impacting so many people.
