Well that's a great first impression for me from Jimbo. Exactly the sort of stupid stuff from Maryland and other places, trying to show how much tougher you are than the last guy.

Does this sound like his normal stuff, FSU fans?

Jimbo is a known egomaniac and micromanager. So it's doubtful much of anything is happening without his knowledge.

As far as paying players/recruits goes, eh NBD in my eyes. All teams do it.

Paying players isn't a big deal to most, but it's the only thing the NCAA actually punishes schools for.

The dumpster fire at LSU feels like it's being weirdly unreported lol. Y'all might be right, Orgeron might not survive the season.

and will start the season with like 4 losses but play bama like they're the best program in cfb

I'm thinking 3 losses, but that's still bad considering they'll have to deal with Alabama later in the season, and will probably inexplicably drop another game at some point. The fan base ain't gonna stand for that.

I don't think they hang with Bama this year, though. They're always tough, but man, even last year we pulled away a bit and Jalen had one of the better games of his career. Tua or an improved Jalen shouldn't have much trouble this season.

They're not even built to take advantage of our relatively suspect secondary.

The only surprise about the money was the staff member being so direct about it. Figured most would at least go through a grad assistant.

It's the ignoring a surgeon and making a kid practice (not even play) on a bum ankle that really concerns me.

Besides the personality issues I listed before, the only player-centered problem FSU had with Jimbo was him not utilizing WRs until they mastered their routes. This meant blue chip recruits would sit for at least a year.

The Meyer press conference is going to feel a lot like this:

Y'all ready for the praise for tOSU overcoming the adversity of their head coach harboring a domestic abuser?
