OXFORD, Miss. – Bobby Bowden, the all-time winningest coach in major college football, will be on campus at the University of Mississippi for a breakfast sponsored by the Ole Miss chapter of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes on Saturday, Feb. 22.

Bowden and Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze will be the featured speakers for the event, and all proceeds will go directly to support the Ole Miss FCA chapter.

“I see the upcoming FCA Breakfast as a great opportunity to be encouraged by two outstanding men and coaches who not only have a faith in God, but try to live out their faith daily to impact those around them for good,” said Ole Miss FCA campus director Todd Johnson. “It will hopefully be a great way to start the day before we play Florida in basketball on national TV and then have a baseball game that afternoon. We believe this FCA Breakfast could become an annual event and be significant in helping fund our campus ministry.”

The breakfast will be held at the Manning Center (formerly known as the Indoor Practice Facility) from8:30-10:15 a.m. Visit www.olemissfca.org to register for tickets and table sponsorships.

Bowden was the head football coach at Florida State from 1976-2009, leading the Seminoles to 12 Atlantic Coast Conference titles and two national championships. Since his retirement, he has traveled the country as a motivational speaker.
