this year when LSU was in contention for him last year ended up with up the Creole Clown in Ed Orgeron?

What dynamics changed for Fisher that we couldn't make a deal with him last year? Isn't LSU a better job than A&M?

I believe I already know that answer.......

I have one question for you. Why would come on here and out yourself as such a large Vagina giving every Aggie complete satisfaction of seeing a LSU fan melt hard?

Some still say 2015 was a done deal - then killed by F King and his useful idiot Alleva.

2016 , Jimbo was simply leveraging for a raise. I think that's evident because most reliable reporters in BR said that Herman was the deal because Jimbo wanted too much. I have seen some say Herman found out that his offer was lower than LSU offer to Jimbo prior to him countering. I think that most people though believe that Herman backed out once Texas finally came to the table and Alleva threw a tantrum, hired a cheap Orgeron.

Edit: Jimbo did not really want to be here. Simple as that. Why melt over someone that has been looking for a raise for four years now? Don't believe all the bullshite about Jimbo can't get the staff salaries he wants, because they have a very well paid staff. Think someone here posted its the sixth highest paid assistant group. Jimbo seems like he is being selfish and maybe finally the Seminoles are just ready for change.

Signing off by saying this: frick Jimbo and frick Texas A&M

The big difference this year is that he over played his hand. Jimbo pulled the same shite as last year on FSU this year and they basically said bye. They tried to give him some things to keep him but ultimately felt like what they have done for him was fair.

So it's more a matter of timing and FSU's will to negotiate. I dont like alleva, but A&M wouldn't have gotten him last year either.

Because he, along with the majority of people who post on the rant, is a petulant child... a crybaby, who in an instant, would cut off his nose to spite his face, if it meant he could be correct on the internet

Texas A&M has virtually unlimited financial resources, for one thing, but more importantly, Fisher has apparently thoroughly worn out his welcome in Tallahassee. From what I've read about the situation, Jimbo has pissed off quite a few people at Florida State this year, and he had a very sub-par year on the field. They are finally sick of him there.

Did you watch FSU play this year? 4 and 5 star talent on the two deep that was poorly coached and quit early in the season. Jimbo is damaged goods, big mistake by faggie.

They are willing to throw more money at him than he deserves. Alleva did botch the coaching search, but walking away from Jimbo was the right thing. He's a good coach, but as this year proves, he's not a great coach, and not worth that kind of money. And he's also proved he has a wandering eye. He and Sexton would always be threatening to bolt, and eventually he would.

They're on the verge of having a 6 win season as opposed to their usual 10 win season.

They are extremely over paying him!!! I'm sorry paying that much money for an average 3 loss coach is flat out stupid.

FSU promised him a 60M football only facility after the LSU interest, and then dragged their feet due to logistics. Jimbo publicly comments on how this affects recruiting, relationship with booster org deteriorates in wake of worst FSU season in 35 years, fingers pointing both ways, Aggie is in the right place at the right time. Prettymuch that simple.

You need to spend money to get a good coach, thats how this works.

If you arent willing to overpay you arent willing to do what it takes.

LSU at the moment is not willing to do whatever it takes as long as the current AD is in the building.

2015 F King and Alleva botched it

2016 he was never seriously considering leaving

2017 Jimbo has to overhaul his staff and A&M willing to overpay. FSU fanbase and admin is done with him.

Timing is everything

Right, a lot of this can be blamed on FSU.
