ladyhawke Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 10 minutes ago, HuskerInATL said: Reason for Jimbo leaving FSU is that the Athletic Department, boosters, etc. wanted him to fire his DC and OL coach as they are bums. Issue was they were Jimbo guys and he refused. So he was on the hot seat anyways and when aTm (literally a cash machine) came calling, he took off. FSU had been expecting this and has Taggert pretty much locked up. I went to Grad school at FSU (I slept with the enemy, I know) and due to its proximity to me go to some games plus the sports radio stations here keep up on them due to a huge alum presence. Interesting! Link to comment

A&M hasn't won anything in forever, they will have no problem doing what it takes to change that. I've been reading that Fisher wanted an indoor practice facility. I agree with the people writing the checks- not needed. Link to comment

I think he's top 5 personally. In no particular order, Saban, Meyer, Swinney, Fisher, Dantonio/Shaw. 10 years is one heckuva commitment. I'm assuming that commitment was why he left (unless there is a A&M connection I don't know about), but like you said, surprised FSU didn't do what they could to keep him. Maybe there is an assumption there that it doesn't matter who the coach is? Edited December 1, 2017 by B.B. Hemingway Link to comment

This makes sense. More sense then the TO rumor Link to comment

Good god Supposedly it's his dream job Maybe it is, I guess. Is there a previous connection there? A&M seems like there would have to be some kind of a previous connection for it to be anyone's dream job (like Frost/Nebraska). I think it likely had more to do with the 10/75. That'd be nearly impossible to turn down. Link to comment

If these really are your last few days and you don't make it to Monday, goodbye dear thread. I will miss you. You got me through the longest week of my message board life. You are the 1990s Nebraska Football of all threads. I hope you live forever, but I know that decision is in the hands of the men upstairs. May you live in the memory of HB forever. 17 minutes ago, Husker N StL said: Thought it was appropriate for me to tag on to this post for obvious geographic reasons (STL).
