Legacy
Bosley is listed on the San Francisco 49ers “Golden Era” team from 1946–1969 and he was named to the college football’s 75th Silver Anniversary Team in 1981.
Bosley, a member of the College Football Hall of Fame, was a part of West Virginia University’s second hall of fame induction class of 1992.
More recently, he was named the state of West Virginia’s 30th greatest sports figure in a poll conducted by CNNSI.com.
Dave Beronio, sports editor of the Vallejo Independent Press, once wrote of Bosley: “As a newsman of more than 40 years, I have found very few ‘Bruce Bosleys,’ those willing to contribute and participate during and after their days as stars. It would be difficult for me to believe that I will see his equal again in our area.”
