Bobby Bowden Wanted One More Year, FSU Didn't (VIDEO)

Bobby Bowden talks, briefly, about the situation the FSU administration put him in at the end of the 2009 season. Apparently he made it clear that he wanted one more year, but the university was ready to move on—much to his disappointment.

Bowden doesn't bash FSU and says he will still keep up with the team this season—from a distance. The former coach won't be at a loss for places to watch a game in 2010 as Mark Richt (Georgia), Urban Meyer (Florida), and Joe Paterno (Penn State) have all invited him to come and watch games at their respective universities.

He also discusses his new book, Called to Coach, written by Mark Schlabach (a former Georgia grad and current ESPN college football analyst).

Bowden appears to be handling all of his free time fairly well but it will be odd not seeing him walk
the sidelines in Tallahassee this season. He is truly one of the best there ever was in college football.
