Didn't they err in the OSU/LSU NC game suspensions?

Here is Pittsburgh's Post/Gazette Jimbo story:

Jimbo Fisher has a clause in his contract that he pays $2.5 mil if he TALKS to another team.

Thanks for the link. How weird is that for Bobby Bowden ... his son and his assistant/successor up for the same job.

Another note - I didn't know that Jimbo was ANOTHER of Sexton's clients!

I doubt if that's enforceable

What would FL State be without Bobby,
They were a ULL type team before him.



Not even close.

Florida State had finished in the Top 20 3 times the previous 10 years before he got there, including 2 Top 15 finishes.

They had also went to the Sun, Gator, (tied Penn State), Peach, (lost to LSU), and Fiesta Bowls during that same time period. Go back a year further and they went to another Gator Bowl where they beat Oklahoma 36-19.

like they said, when WV gets their $4.5 mil from RR, they can pay the $2.5 mil it takes to hire him

If Jimbo goes to WVU, I would look for Bobby to try and bring Tine Terry to FSU. I think BB has always wanted Terry to take over at FSU when he leaves. Terry is his favorite.
