2016 : 10-3 (5-3)
2017 : 5-6 (3-5)
Total : 15-9 (8-8)

Classes of 2016 (#3), 2017 (#6)

2019 NFL Draft : 2 picks (Brian Burns, Demarcus Christmas (class of 2014))
2020 NFL Draft : 1 pick (Cam Akers)

Marvin Wilson from 2017 will be drafted next year, and maybe 1-2 others. All in all you are looking at a liberal estimate of 5-6 players out of 2 Top 6 recruiting classes being drafted, on top of the way that program fell apart the last 2 seasons.

Somebody needs to write a book on what the hell happened there.

I thought Akers went to FSU because of Taggart.

If he doesn't win 10 games this yr with the ease of schedule he deserves to have a very hot seat

Taggart was absolute trash in every sense of the word. He is absolutely to blame for a lot of talent failing.

Fisher took a ready made program to the height of success and then proceeded to dismantle it at FSU and TAM is of the opinion he can build a program. He may prove capable....Coach O certainly had doubters and he proved them wrong....but Fisher was handed the keys to a rolls Royce in tallahasse and turned it into a KIA at best...he was handed the keys to a Yugo at TAM.....

What about Jimbo going 5-6 his last season?

That Taggart's fault too?

Jimbo must have had the world's biggest shite eating grin when he inked that $75 million guaranteed while sporting this record

Everybody knows that this evident disaster is due to EL-NINIO being out of whack with the ENSO pattern, which affects the IOD. None of this has anything to do with Jimbo and should not be a negative reflection of aggy. Wait till next year.

It is funny to watch am fans blame their lack of draft picks on Sumlin. Bet they don't apply that philosophy to FSU's situation

If not for rescheduling a cancelled game against UL-Monroe, FSU would be going on 3 straight losing seasons.

I never thought I’d see that program fall so far and while Taggart made it substantially worse, it all started with Fisher.

Nah, I would have described it more like a Ford Taurus.

Was it his recruiting "a disaster"?

2015 class #3 (four 5*, ten 4*)
2016 class #3 (one 5*, seventeen 4*)
2017 class #6 (four 5*, eight 4*)

Again, "a disaster"?

2016: 10-3 (5-3) #8

Last season (singular) would make more sense.
