The latest word according to ESPN is that Bowden won't be forced out THIS 
year.  That may mean they're still working on getting him to voluntarily 
retire, possibly because he wants them to up the ante, or maybe he wants 
a valedictory tour year.   

I think the last coach who took one of those was LaVell Edwards in 2000, 
and it wasn't all that successful, BYU went 6-6 and missed out on a bowl 
game.  Of course the way FSU's season is going, 6-6 might be a good year 
for them this year.
