FSU offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher will succeed Bobby Bowden when he retires, the school will announce at a Monday news conference, sources close to the situation said Wednesday.


Replacing A Legend

Whenever Jimbo Fisher (pictured) replaces Bobby Bowden as Florida State's head coach, he'll be stepping in for one of the all-time greats.

The school will announce that Fisher has agreed to a three-year deal that will pay just under $1 million per year. When Bowden retires, the school has told Fisher he will succeed the legendary coach.

If for any reason Fisher is not named coach at that time, the school would pay Fisher a multimillion dollar buyout.

Fisher had been contacted by Southern Mississipppi and Arkansas, among other schools, gauging his interest to become their head coach.

No exact date has been given for Bowden's eventual retirement.

Damn Sexton is pretty good to get that contract locked up.

so Fisher will be the 2-3 year buffer coach that fans can bitch about until FSU hires a real HC.
