All the more reason he should be fired.

Yeah, at home, at night on national television they should.

The committee guidelines that EVERYONE knew about listed “injuries to key players” were to be a key consideration for possible selection. FSU lost arguably the MOST key player any of the contenders could possibly lose. 1000% correct to leave them out.

Jimbo is well and rested. The gomers are still paying him, so money should not be a problem?

It’s the same situation at Clemson. It’s not only firing the HC but buyouts for everyone else plus the cost of bringing in a new staff. Also if you aren’t going to fund a competitive NIL then why bother spend on the transition. It will cost them over $100 million to do it correctly.

You might say it’s “lights out” for his tenure there.

He’s gotta be.

What’s his buyout? I know FSU is cheap when it comes to paying for this stuff. At least the school’s unwillingness or inability to open the coffers was always Jimbo’s ire with FSU.

they need to get comfy because they can't afford to fire him, they said as much last year, 51 million to fire norvill, 57 million to fire dabo. they need to hope norvill and dabo remember how coach again.

Is this the same FSU that kept guaranteeing that they had a way out of the Grant of Rights contract and were joining the SEC?

That’s 2 ACC coaches calling their agents after week one.

FSU spends worse than LSU, they just don't have money. Being in the state capitol, they usually figure out a way to finagle it out the state somehow through the politicians. They will try anything. Not too long ago they even tried ot screw the locals out of some money.

I can't believe he is at FSU and doesn't recruit HS talent.

Win loss or draw. I have never heard a home team boo their coach this much in a game that’s still up for grabs. Apparently, they really really hate him.


And to think he was on Alabama's short list of coaches to replace Saban. LOL! So, we could have done a lot worse than DeBoer!

This gave me PTSD when Riley was coach and our DC gave the same cushion on 3rd and 1
