Jimbo Fisher forgot how to recruit, sign, and develop quarterbacks after 2012

Aggies tout Jimbo as a "quarterback whisperer" but that's arguably been the most underperforming position since he took the job.
This list was posted here last offseason and received a lot of Aggie vitriol, namely, "Muh just wait, Jimbo has his own guys in now."
Please no melts, this is not a troll, but simply a fact based assessment.
**2013**
John Franklin III
Transferred to East Mississippi Community College, then to Auburn, then to Florida Atlantic where he played receiver. Made the NFL as a defensive back.
Appeared on Last Chance U
**2014**
JJ Cosentino
Left the team after being the third string quarterback for most of his four years with the program
**2015**
Deondre Francois
Kicked off team due to a domestic dispute then transferred to Hampton
DeAndre Johnson
Kicked off team after punching a woman at a bar, then transferred to East Mississippi Community College, then to Florida Atlantic, and finally to Texas Southern
Appeared on Last Chance U
**2016**
Malik Henry
Kicked off team due to rule violations, transferred to Independence Community College but was also kicked off that team. Walked on at Nevada but ultimately left the program.
Appeared on Last Chance U
**2017**
James Blackman
Transferred to Arkansas State
Bailey Hockman
Transferred to North Carolina State, then to Middle Tennessee State. Now retired.
**2018**
James Foster
Transferred to Charlotte, successfully making the transition from 39er to 49er.
**2019**
Zach Calzada
Took over after Haynes King's injury. Was very inconsistent despite beating Alabama and transferred to Auburn to battle with TJ Finley for best recycled SEC quarterback.
**2020**
Haynes King
Threw 2 touchdowns and 3 interceptions against Kent State before being injured against Colorado in his second start. Is super fast but seems to struggle with accuracy and turnovers.
**2021**
Eli Stowers
Already moved to tight end.
**2022**
Conner Weigman
Highly rated prospect though not as highly rated as Jameis Winston coming out of high school. Many Aggies have prematurely awarded him the Heisman Trophy and a national championship already. The kid definitely has some LARGE expectations to live up to.

Living rent free in that little walnut brain of yours.

These seem like facts and not opinions. Here come the Aggies to argue them.

They probably get a headache when trying to keep up with him while he talks. I know I do. I couldn't get through his media days interview.

Queer Station fans don’t like it when you post facts! Great post btw

The sad part is none of these guys have even really succeeded at lower levels of competition.
Seems as though there's a problem with evaluation of the position.

Everyone but Jimbo knows his offense is outdated.
Posted on 8/1/22 at 7:23 pm to SidewalkTiger
Again? How many times have you personally typed the words qb whisperer? No less than 1000. Sthidewalk17 shitposting

Josh Pate made a great point in that Jimbo's offense is one of the few that uses very little pre snap motion.
They just line up and try to beat you, usually with a dual threat guy playing from the pocket and receivers running very long developing routes plus a ton of reads for the quarterback.

Wait.
Are you saying Aggies don't refer to Jimbo as a "quarterback whisperer?"
Is that what you're saying?

Oof…
So many failures.
So many failures.

James Foster has nothing to do with LSU football.
Are you pretending Jimbo didn't recruit and sign James Foster?

Jimbo Fisher WITHOUT Jameis Winston as a starter
vs Power 5 Opp: 66-35 (.653)
vs Opp w/ Winning Record: 38-33 (.535)
vs Final AP Top 25: 13-24 (.351)
Sidewalk, are you telling us that the Aggy's "QB whisperer" apparently whispers sweet NOTHINGS to his QBs?!

You forgot to say Jimbo is unable to recruit a QB for 2023.
Posted on 8/1/22 at 7:31 pm to SidewalkTiger
All of that may be true, but he made Christian ponder a first rounder and Kellen Mond a third rounder. I would call those accomplishments. Maybe he didn’t sign Mond but he developed him over 3 years.
Posted on 8/1/22 at 7:32 pm to SidewalkTiger
If you think James Foster would start over Mond, and you’re surprised he lost the QB competition to King/Calzada….and put that on a message board as proof of Jimbo being a failure, I can’t help but smile, good troll tho cuh
