Bobby Bowden being the most winningest coach in college football and everything, I was just wondering what your thoughts were on him and whether he needed to retire or whether he should try to stick it out and hopefully turn this program around &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125119.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"336\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: I played golf with Bobby Bowden once down here in Florida prior to a boosters dinner. This was in the spring, after spring practice. It\u2019s been about five or six years ago. It was over in Naples, Fort Myers, somewhere. He was just feisty as he could be. He was a blast to be around; he was actually a pretty good golfer. You know, he is the face of that team. I think if they hadn\u2019t designated &#8212; who was it the offensive coordinator or defensive coordinator to be the head coach when he retires? <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Jimbo Fisher.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Jimbo Fisher. What is he, defense or offensive coordinator?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: He\u2019s offensive coordinator.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. If they hadn\u2019t done that, there would have been a problem recruiting and all. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: But now they can go recruit guys out of high school and say, &#8216;There\u2019s continuity here. Jimbo Fisher going to take over,\u2019 and Jimbo Fisher, by the way, rejected opportunities to go somewhere else. He\u2019s established his loyalty. So, you know, Bobby Bowden is the face of that program and he\u2019s entrenched and they\u2019re going to kick him out of there, or he\u2019s going to have kick himself out, like Joe Paterno at Penn State.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I have all the respect in the world for Bobby Bowden. I don\u2019t know him that well, and I don\u2019t really follow college football that closely until we get to the end of the season, because I didn\u2019t go to college, and so I don\u2019t have a rah-rah alma mater spirit. Plus, college football teams don\u2019t wear socks, and I think they look like amateurs. It\u2019s tough for me to get into it. But having met Bowden and the overall success of that program is such&#8230; Look at the number of people, number of players they put in the National Football League that end up playing, and being stars. There\u2019s something to be said for it. I wish him the best. I really enjoyed having gotten to meet him, his kids, his sons &#8212; I\u2019ve never met them, but they seem to be really good guys, too, the ultimate plus for the program, from an outsider looking in like me with no intimate inside knowledge. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Nick in Tallahassee, nice to have you, sir, on Open Line Friday.
