Description
Coach Bobby Bowden is an icon of college football who ran his legendary, top-ranking program with a trademark southern charm. With his recent retirement, Bowden is ready to give fans and readers the behind-the-scenes story of his 55-year career and the path that helped him become one of college football's most successful coaches and patriarch of the sport's most famous coaching family.
In this book, Bowden will reveal never-before-published details of the moments and events that have defined his life, including:
* The tragic death of his grandson and son-in-law in a 2004 automobile accident.
* The details of his retirement as FSU's coach at the end of the 2009 season.

Bobby Bowden's a cocksman
More than just football...
This was a great read. A must for any college football fan!
So disappointing
I love Bobby Bowden and his FSU teams of the 90's so I was excited to read this book. Wow, was I disappointed! Reading this book is like reading something written by 3rd grader. It has basically no insight into leadership, behind the scenes information, or anything close to exciting. I am a Christian but his random biblical references make no sense and really have no point to his story. Most of the pre game devotionals really make no sense and do not tie in to the story. Do not waste your time on this book as it is a huge disappointment and has absolutely no point what so ever. I really have never read a book so painful and quite frankly embarrassing to read. This book makes me feel bad for Bobby Bowden that he was allowed to publish this.
