I don't think Jimbo Fisher should have been forced out at Florida State

I realize Jimbo came into the HC job with momentum because he was coach-in-waiting already, and might should have done better the first two years. In that weak conference.

Don't care! Still wasn't a point of reference. Should have had nothing to do with Jimbo's body of work.

Then later, coming in fresh on the natty game because of the previously mentioned weak conference also DOES NOT diminish that national championship.

And then finally I also realize the 4-year-fall from Natty to 5-6 was bad. "It was bad" in some "circles" - whatever - but I was so glad to see the press conference security throw that Florida State fan out of the press conference last year for asking those tough questions to Jimbo. I realize it was question-answer session for fans, but NOT THAT FAN.

At the end of the day, I just don't think Jimbo should have been run out of Tallahassee on a rail.

He gave back to the community and made alot of friends there. And a lot of memories. And as Houston Nutt would say, they went to a lot of bowls.

What more could FSU ask?

Well screw those bastards.

I know my argument is weak. It should be better. It should give us a better feel for why Florida State was wrong here. I admit that freely.

I'm not the one who should be making this argument.

Florida State's bansheeism on the landscape of college football is not my story to tell. But I still hate them for what they did to Jimbo.

That was never a good fit. I remember hearing Finebaum talking with Brad Edwards in the summer of 2014 and they were very adimant about how miserable Jimbo was at FSU. It was said THEN that he would bolt for the first good job that came open. This was way before last season's problems. Jimbo coached 4 seasons with a foot out the door.
