Steve Spurrier catches a lot of flak on here for quitting on USC, but how come nobody says anything about Jimbo hightailing it out of Tallahassee?

This chicken shite bastard quit on those kids when things got tough, and got a crazy salary at A&M for it.

I wish nothibut bad things for A&M & Jimbo.

Because he didn’t quit midseason to go get drunk and attend UF games?

Jimbo quit during the middle of the season? Spurrier is a fricking coward, Jimbo just left for a better opportunity.

So true. And that bitch Saban left LSU high and dry. And don't get me started on what Bear did to Kentucky and A&M. What an a-hole. And did you hear that that bitch Mullen left MSU?

Pretty much the only coach in the SEC that hasn't quit on kids at some point is Coach O, who never seems to leave on his accord.

Spurrier quit mod season after a humiliating and long overdue loss to the Dawgs. Jumbo left for a different opportunity. Time will tell if it is better or not.

Based on reports the staff had completely stopped recruiting too.

Not sure who should be more embarrassed, Jimbo for seeking a raise after that pathetic season or A&M for giving him one

There’s a long history of FSU and it’s administrators doing zero to help the athletic program, also a long history of Jimbo expressing his frustration over that

You can't blame the Old Ball Sack for wanting to get out of that ghetto. Especially when he knew what Dabo was creating up in Clemson. Jimbo just figured that if he was going to get destroyed by Dabo anyway, he might as well get a pay raise to do it.

Jimbo waited till the end of the season and got paid more.

Spurrier did it in the middle of a season that we ended 3-9

I don't mind what Jimbo did, what Spurrier did still doesn't sit with me.

To be honest Steve Spurrier retired about a year and a half before he bothered to retire. He got South Carolina to a certain point and decided to take it easy and hope that momentum would carry them along for a few years... and it didn't.

Jimbo was pretty good at FSU, especially when he had a Heisman trophy winning QB, but once it got out that his wife was getting hosed down by half the campus he lost his mojo. Will he be back at A&M?

Well he was handed the keys to a Porsche. Texas is horrible, TCU is TCU, and Baylor/Texas Tech are just hoping to get through the decade without too many losses. Not to mention at A&M he doesn't have to worry about someone cuckolding him. He could do really well there.

Or this could be a coach that has lost his mojo milking a school for a few years and getting a lot of money for very mediocre results.

IMO Jimbo had already closed down shop in Tallahassee long before last year. It’s going to be interesting to see how he does at aTm with their resources. But that being said the FSU AD wasn’t going to give him what he wanted regardless if it was necessary or not to be a successful football program. In his eyes he didn’t really have an option but to leave for greener pastures. Spurrier should have stayed on until the end of the season. The only exception is if there were health related issues.

Spurrier quit. That’s just how it is.

Looking back on it I’m glad it happened because it gave us that head start at finding a coach. That and nothing good would have came out of Spurrier finishing off the season. Back then Muschamp was a joke hire, but now people think he’s doing great. I like where we are right now as a program. It could’ve ended a lot worse.

As for Jimbo, things were going to arse with him as FSU’s HC. He got lucky with the A&M offer and bailed as soon as he could. FSU then has to settle with Willie, which looks like a really bad hire right now. Although with FSU they could always steal away a big name in the future...because they’re FSU.

Hard to tell which is worse, but I guess people still say Spurrier because of how it looked to everyone.
