Would Les have already dismissed Jameis Winston?

I say yes and I look at Ryan P. being dismissed for less. One reason I really respect our coach.

I don't think so

1) he was never convicted of rape
2) verbal abuse wasn't that bad.
3) he hasn't be charged with anything else yet.
4) the disciplinary hearing happens all the time in a university it isn't that big of a deal. But the media is on him like a hawk.

If Jameis played at LSU he wouldn't be a good enough QB for people to want his autograph.

If RP would have ever played at the level of JW there would be no way Les would have dismissed him. Les probably weighed his risk versus reward and came to the conclusion that RP wasn't worth the risk.

Not a chance. We've seen him put up with more from people with far less talent than JW

Definitely. We may tolerate this kind of behavior from the public officials we elect, but college football is important, and Les knows that we demand a certain level of conduct from our players.

Armed robery and drugs is less than getting accused but not convicted of rape, and yelling curse words?

True, but what about the Jefferson controversy? He suspended him for half a season and let him take over Lee's EARNED job. Jameis has too much talent for FSU to dismiss him. Well, come to think of it, he may be their ONLY talent.

One thing Ive learned from Miles, is you worry about your own squad. What Jimbo or an other coach does with his players is their business.

Ryan P was also into a lot more than came public

He was constantly hanging with a group of big-time drug dealers (far worse than the crowd Tryann got knocked for hanging with) so it wouldn't surprise me if there were some other things Les knew about before making his decision

If the rape allegations happened in BR, I don't think it would have been swept under the rug like they were in Tallahassee. I think there would have been a more firm legal resolution on it, which would have give Miles the ammo to cut him or explain why he didn't.

All the other knuckleheadedness by Jameis would not be enough for Miles to kick him off the team as long as he's handling his responsbilities to the team. He would have missed playing time. That's about it.

I guess what I'm saying is that if Miles were at FSU, Jameis might have missed more playing time than what Jimbo has dished out, but he'd still be on the team.
