Confirmed: Jimbo Fisher to FSU
 

hmm...heir apparent to bobby? one would think so...

my husband thinks the DC for lsu might be leaving as well. not good.

it happens.

I've heard that too... makes you wonder what the hell is going on. :eek:

they're good. they have a good rep, part of a winning team....of course not all assistants make a good head coach. but you have to get them from somewhere.
hate to see them leave, but the AD in lsu is good--top notch. all of their sports do well, he's largely responsible for that.

i have it on VERY good info that neither fisher or pellini like les miles. pellini was looking for a HC job before fisher. fisher and pellini got along really well and i would look for them to coach together in the future if possible.

That salary figure for Fisher seems WAY low....I read somewhere else he had a 450,000 package at LSU....Why would he go to FSU for HALF what he was making before??

you don't have to like someone to work with them. well, at least i don't. i know it's not like that with everyone tho.

i think his bonuses made it over $400k. it's the same in this contract from what i understand. the sticking point may have been something about the HC job when bowden retires OR length of stay and out claus if he'd be offered a HC job someplace else.

Plausible! Thanks for details.

i'm sure the thought of his future as a HC was the driving force.
and if he thinks working with miles was difficult, he's going into a really tough spot--taking the place of bowdens son, and a coach the guy didn't want to get rid of. you know ol' bobby meant to hand this team off to jeff when he retired....hell of a situation to get into as the new OC.

My respect for Miles realy went down , when he anounce the penalty for the curfue violation would be maybe 1 quarter. Sure was covering his arse. Basicaly saying we have rules, maybe. Either penalize them of just shut up. Maybe a quarter is a joke.

CJF is probably not in as bad a spot as you think. fisher likes to throw first then run, with balance. young bowden made his name throwing the ball all over the lot and his trick plays.
fisher's rub with miles, miles wanted to majoritly run the ball. (miles was a michigan OL) . look what a heavy pass offense did to nd, with that group of players.
CJF will help bowden recruit. bowden has lost his best recruiters the last 10 years and has had trouble getting the offensive players that he has used too. fsu defense is consistant because micky andrews is still there.

Fisher doesn't like Saban either. :p

I don't like Fisher, so adios to him.

you might be sorry CJF is gone, after miles brings in his own people.
OC change might be good though, with J Russell headed to the nfl.

It WILL be good... just curious as to who we're going to get. :confused:

cajun...i just had a thought. if they have lottery there where you live, maybe you should bet the pick four...play 4114!! lol i'm telling you, it's karma!
