Bobby Bowden, after his freshman year at Alabama, became a Little All America quarterback at Howard (now Samford) and began his coaching career there in 1959.
When Terry Bowden, coaching Salem College, took the job at Samford in 1987, quarterback Jimbo Fisher joined him at Samford for his senior campaign and was named Division III Player of the Year. Fisher, like Bobby, began his coaching career as an assistant under Terry at Samford before they went to Auburn together.
With all the Samford history going on, I wonder if during the game Bobby might coach the first half and turn the game and the program right on over to Jimbo for the second half?
The timing sounds about right! Go 'Noles
