How insane is it that my first question is whether they can afford to fire him?
Coaching contracts are wild.

I don’t think I’ve ever come across a story where leadership is meeting to discuss a pro or college coach’s future where the coach is not fired within hours to days.
I’ll take your word on this one, tho.

Would they really hire Jimbo again?

For the right price they probably would

Better off hiring a coordinator. Get a cheaper rate.

It’s been reported at one point that they would not have the money to fire him, pay buyout, then also pay for new hire + NIL funds. Who knows though

Apparently Jimbo doesn't have an offset in his TAMU contract either so he would still be getting paid by them even if he took the job.

They don’t have a lot of money, acc contract isn’t that big and they have a lot of boosters but none swinging big dicks like LSU

I feel like you have to fire him after last night. I don’t care if they are money problems

To hear some FSU fans talk (when Jimbo departed for A&M) the fans were becoming less enamored with him towards the end of his tenure at FSU.
I guess he might be the obvious answer but I'm not sure he's a good answer for Florida State

Even if they’re poor and don’t want to pay the buyout, there’s a point where the financial repercussions of keeping him becomes greater than firing him
They’re probably at that point
Either way FSU will never have a seat at the big kid table again. They have been completely left behind financially. Same for Clemson

Love him or hate him, Sexton is the goat at what he does.

FSU's athletic department leads the nation in debt at just short of half a billion dollars.

Sunk cost
LSU realized that with BK

This. They have to pull the trigger whether they can afford it or not.
If they bring Norvell back at this point, next year will just be Groundhog's Day of fan apathy, speculation about his job, and losing games. They'll still have to buy him out eventually.

i wonder who they would hire that would be worth that massive buyout

I feel like we have this thread on a weekly basis for two years now
