Legendary football coach Bobby Bowden has tested positive for coronavirus.

Jim Henry tweeted Monday morning that he’d spoken with the former Florida State coach, and “he feels good, and sounds good” after contracting the virus. (REVIEW: ‘Westworld’ Season 3 Ends With The Possible Deaths Of Multiple Characters)

Henry added that Bowden “tested positive following recent release from hospital for leg infection.”

Obviously, we’re all pulling for Bowden. The man is a legendary coach in the world of college football.

Bowden is largely responsible for turning the Seminoles into a national brand and football powerhouse down in Tallahasee.

Now, he’s contracted the coronavirus.

Hopefully, he bounces back quickly, and doesn’t let the virus hold back. After all, we’re talking about a classic football guy.

I’ll be damned if a virus keeps a guy like Bowden down and out. I have no doubt he’ll be back better than ever.

We’re all pulling for you coach! Get better!
