All these flustered O-pumpers all over this board.

What they are doing is called: “Whistling Dixie in the graveyard at midnight.”

Had LSU made a stupid move like aTm, the same fans complaining would have been bitching about Alleva caved in and committed too much.

When aTm is still losing to LSU annually and finishing 5th or 6th, their happy fans will quickly become angry they committed so much to one coach. Fisher is not close being a goat. Move the frick on. When/if we do not accomplish what is starting to look like a solid chance to return to the top and we lose 4 or more, then let's start looking. We have what we have.

We'll be ok. College Station isn't exactly the garden spot of the south. The Aggies will figure out a way to screw this up. They always do. We have to keep our in state guys and get a few out of Houston/Dallas and FL. I'm bullish on LSU right now. O turned the season around after 2 embarrassing loses. Compare that to what Jimbo did this year. Think about it.

It's well known Jimbo was butting heads with people at Florida State bc of facility upgrades. He also wanted more money for better assistants, that's why he flirted with LSU.

Don't let your hate for Moscona make you more stupid.

Succeeded? By giving him a $75MM contract? Alleva's incompetence worked in our favor this time.

Fisher was fed up with losing assistants and begging for facility upgrades

This isn't really breaking news. There were stories posted on TD about Jimbo's frustration with FSU facilities and and assistant salaries in 2015 and 2016. His own comments the week of the Clemson game this season also didn't go over well.
quote:

Asked what commitments he’d like to see from Florida State, Fisher responded: “Those things are a major, major deal. Unfortunately, in this business, when you get into the facilities business, you’re never out of it. You’re never out of development. Your company can never quit growing. Whether it’s that or behind the scenes things, support staff, all that can never happen. It can never go away. If it does, people fly by you like crazy. And there’s numerous examples across this country. If you don’t understand that, you’re missing the boat.”

Those comments were not well-received among FSU fans and administrators, particularly given the contract extension Fisher received last December and the multimillion-dollar facility upgrades the school has made under his watch.

That came out during the extension talks last year.
Fisher made those comments.
