I'm still not over that. It's absurd that he blew his load and snatched up On like he had 30 other offers on the table.

i'm telling you guys, we will lament and even hate the fact that one of our very own is upgrading a rival, ie what woodward is doing with a&m as AD...while we have a carpetbagging doofus leading our charge.

but it is what it is...

If you ever hear who a school is vetting then the entire AD is a clown show.

This should never be public knowledge for lots of reasons, see MSU and ARKY.

LSU guy here, I hope Aggy gets Fisher.

I think he is burnt out and going to be a big disappointment.

I really don't get the Jimbo Love affair. This Guy isn't Nick Saban, Urban Meyer, or even Dabo Swinny.
Seems to me the prevailing Coaching norm along the Rant has to do with who the constantly name-dropping "cool" posters have heard of. Remember when "we" wanted Kelly, Butch, Gundy, Harbaugh, Jimbo, Gruden?

Dare to differ with any of these at your own risk. Lol.

Jimbo is a solid coach, but I don't think he'll ever win another title with his coaching staff hires and his constant refusal to hire an OC that will make the play calls.

He'll have some good seasons with A&M and fall short of the SEC title game every year

I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't coach the game Saturday at this point.

FSU doesn't want him to, but he feels like he should. Latest, from FSU's perspective:


quote:

Thursday, Nov. 30 @ 9:30 a.m.

Not a whole lot has changed since last night in terms of Jimbo Fisher's status. At this point it's patiently obvious that he's gone for Texas A&M. It's now past the point of no return. The final straw was losing three significant recruits on Wednesday. The only question is how does FSU handle this situation going forward?

The overwhelming, if not unanimous, sentiment in the Moore Athletic Center is that he should not coach Saturday. There is concern that the environment in Doak Campbell could be toxic with Fisher on the sideline. Considering how a fan acted during a censored and staged call-in show on Wednesday night, the fear is things could get really ugly in the stands on Saturday.

The hope among administrators is that this situation gets wrapped up this afternoon or tonight. Florida State can't fire Fisher but needs to find a way to expedite his departure and make the transition as painless as possible for all parties. I'm not sure how that might be implemented but we will hopefully have more later on how this might be done.

The most interesting thing I've been hearing over the last 24 hours is how long the courtship between Jimbo Fisher and Texas A&M may have been going on. As you know, we reported back in October that that Fisher was going to be the Aggies' primary candidate should Sumlin get fired. However, I've been hearing more that this process may have begun even before that, probably back in September shortly after Labor Day weekend (after UCLA upset A&M).

What I don't know is what this early contact consisted of. It may have just been some informal feelers from A&M to Fisher's agent. However, it could have also been active negotiations or it's possible there was even a tacit agreement or some type of hand-shake deal. The latter would certainly explain how poorly this season played out -- if Fisher had one foot out the door for months.

Could ULM pull this off now?

We’ll see what he can do with money to throw at assistants now.
