I’ve seen various fans, primarily LSU fans, allude to Jimbo doing FSU dirty after winning the natty. I didn’t follow Jimbo’s exit there enough to know how he destroyed what Bowden built.



That is just a segment of LSU fans that for some reason didn't like Jimbo's offense when he was here. Myself I have always liked Jimbo. No doubt he would be coaching at LSU right now if things had lined up right when we made coaching moves.

is this just sour grapes revisionist history by fans, and FSU was actually in a good position after Jimbo left.



I don't think it is sour grapes or that Jimbo left them in a bad position. He was already having problems with the administration there and their lack of investment and commitment. The cracks in the program were there before they won the Natty. Now the issues are clear.

"That some reason" being that he's a terrible play caller. 2006 Auburn game comes to mind.

ETA: And it's a lot more than just a segment.
