Newsflash: Bowden Forced Out at FSU

This has been one of the bigger headlines around the country today.  Bowden came out the other day and said he was forced out, it wasn't his choice.  He wanted to clear the air so that FSU wouldn't give anyone the wrong impression.  My question is, how naive is Bobby Bowden?  Please don't get me wrong...I have alot of respect for the man, he has spoken at my church, and he is obviously a very good guy.  However, I think it was apparent to most that it was time for a change.  I get the idea Coach Bowden was the only guy who didn't know it.  I might be out of line with this, but I was really hoping he would just fade into the sunset.  Now it sounds like sour grapes.
