So what you are saying is that he gets custody of the kids?

Who has custody now?

And what city does she live in now?

Football coaches don't see much of their kids during the season, so custody issues would easily work in BR

I'll post post what I said in another thread.
quote:

The only thing I think we have an advantage in is if he might want out of FSU. I have no idea if he does, but him being connected to the LSU job two years in a row is kind of strange, IMO. Especially with how much he's getting paid and that it's basically seen as a lateral move

I asked some of the FSU posters if they are getting fed up with Jimbo continuously being connected. One said they want him to be somewhere he's happy if he needs that.

I have no idea if Jimbo is unhappy there, but I think that would be the most likely advantage LSU has if so. And I know his kids are in Tallahassee, but his ex wife is also very involved in that community and we have no idea what Jimbo is thinking. We'll just have to wait and see.

ETA: Also he didn't get a raise last year and that might be very telling as to who backed out of the deal. Probably LSU.
As said previously by a Bama poster, his ex wife is highly involved in the Tallahassee scene. I'm sure they know all of the same people. We have no idea what kind of affect that is having on all of this. We'll see.

It seems now that Fisher REGRETS not going to LSU, and will accept the job if offered again. Mrs Fisher said that Jimbo, really wanted to accept the job, but it was just to complicated, basically just not enough bang for the buck, especially when he would have to visits kids. She is now tentative looking at houses in New Orleans for possible move. Now, according to her he REGRETS, REGRETS not taking the LSU job!

Take it for what its worth, but this SAGA never ends, does it?


This is from an Alabama fan that seems to know a good friend of Jimbo Fisher's ex wife, the skeet and trap coach at FSU.

Source says Jimbo not going to LSU!Posted by crimson1 on 11/27/15 at 8:23 pm Long story short, Dad is friends with a non football coach at FSU, the coach once lived and worked in Alabama, His wife and Jimbos wife are friends, the short of it is, that according to this person, FSU is keeping Jimbo, and that things are just too complicated for Jimbo to move to LSU right now!

Now I'm assuming she would live in New Orleans and he would live in Baton Rouge. A lot has happened since then and this was all before their divorce in December so who knows. But it seems as though Fisher did regret not taking the LSU job last year and it seems to kind of fit with all of the other information that came out about him wanting more and backing out of the deal.

Thanks for the info. I imagine him opening up the line of communication again so soon says something. Maybe we sweetened the pot. We'll see.

She has physical custody but can't move outside a 30mile square area of Tally!

It matters what Candi wants not Jimbo when it comes to custody now because he would be the one that wants to move, so she has all the leverage getting what she wants if he wants the kids to be in the same area as him.
