LSU could get a good coach for a good price if they would hire Mark Hudspeth

let's not act like Jimbo hasn't had his screw ups in the pass.

Jimbo is having a good year but historically, he's been above average. There is no way he would have survived at LSU as HC. Zero chance.

Obviously you know he won't be making that for long.

Miles has one more NC as head coach than JF does.

Pretty sure that's more than Bobby Bowden ever made. Can anyone confirm?

lets remember Jimbo loses to terrible NCState teams. Winston is making him look better now. He has lost so many games that they should have never lost. And he coaches at the school who gets wayyy better athletes than anyone else in the ACC

This is the only reason he'd ever leave for somewhere else. However, he'll definitely get a raise, especially if they win the NC.

Hey let's not look back to previous years where Fisher lost to a "scrub team" in Maryland. Because in sports we only look at what the situation is right now.

I'm going to pretend I didn't read the comments in this thread.

I strongly believe Jimbo is a top 5 HC. I'll leave it at that

Based on his body of work as FSU's HC. I don't think a lot of people really appreciate how much Jimbo has done to turn FSU around.

2010 Florida State 10–4 6–2
2011 Florida State 9–4 5–3
2012 Florida State 12–2 7–1
2013 Florida State 9–0 7–0


He has done well but losing that many games in the ACC doesnt put you in top 5 IMO.

Top 5?

Saban, Meyer, Briles, Patterson, Peterson


Jimbo's a great coach. Not sure you can put him in that pantheon just yet.

Was he expected to do better than that? No. Bobby left behind a steaming pile of shite. The entire football program had to be overhauled. Trust me, I knew multiple players during the bobby dark years. The players literally did not care about winning or losing.
