Do y'all Think Florida St. Players are on Jameis' Side?

I know they're on the same team and all. But at some point they've gotta just be like frick this guy right?

If he had done something like steal more crab legs, or get involved in another assault case, maybe. In this situation, they probably think it's stupid he got in trouble at all.

People at FSU absolutely love being around Winston. Teammates will do anything for him. His coaches believe in him. That's true in both football and baseball. And it's not simply because he's a great athlete. There have been many a great athlete in both sports who have been loathed by others inside the program. But almost everybody likes Jameis.

It's why he has been able to maintain so much support through all of his missteps. Coaches, teammates and administrators believed him wholeheartedly when he denied assaulting a female FSU student. They laughed off the soda stealing and the BB gun episode. They even gave him the benefit of the doubt when it came to the crab legs.

But just as many fans have had their allegiance tested through all of this, some inside the athletic department have had enough as well. They're tired of defending and excusing. They're frustrated that the guy who can be so likeable can turn around and be so unlikeable. And then be so likeable again.

Yeah the video is funny. Not really funny when the face of your university does it.

Some are and some probably aren't. I'll just leave it at that.

Shame that he has gotten away with so much just because of his ability.... Bear Bryant suspended Joe Namath for two games including the Sugar Bowl for breaking team curfew. My how things have changed

To give Fisher credit, I don't think a single SEC coach would suspend their Heisman QB for a Big divisional game.

And then be so likeable again.

Could he possibly be some kind of sociopath? I don't mean that in an extremely disparaging way, just that he often makes foolish decisions with no thought of consequence but is generally charming and amiable.

Not sure about the SEC coaches but I do give credit to Jimbo for doing this. Like Cris Carter said on Sunday, the only language most of these dudes speak is football. Take that away, and it is usually the best way to get through to the ones who just don't get it, like Jameis. He seems to completely lack self- awareness.

I know a lot of players on the Auburn team in 2010 hated Cam.

So take that for what it's worth.
