Saint Bobby, Legendary Florida State Seminoles head coach Bobby Bowden is expected to announce his retirement on Tuesday.

Bowden built one of college football’s greatest dynasties in 34 seasons with the Seminoles. His 388 career victories trail only Penn State’s Joe Paterno as college football’s winningest coach.

Bowden met with FSU president TK Wetherell and athletic director Randy Spetman on Monday morning.

According to sources, Bowden was given two options: return to FSU in 2010 as an ambassador to the program, in which he would have little input in the day-to-day operations of the program, or retire after the Seminoles’ upcoming bowl game.

It is unfortunate that it had to end this way for Bowden. His Noles have been disappointing to say the least the last few seasons. And anyone that watches Seminoles games knows Bobby is just a glorified spectator these days.

It seems like they are forcing him out, I hope that is not the case. Bobby Bowden is FSU Football. I can’t imagine it without him.
