I cant believe that there are still people on this board that read his posts. The fact that anyone would waste there time responding to them is just insane.

I don't know why they lost those two games. I didn't watch them.

But according to you, when O loses its the players fault and when Herman loses its his fault and not the players.

You're the one with all the excuses.

I made this argument to him as well. My post was met with the same crickets as yours.

i'm starting to hear several Jimbo Fisher rumors, maybe something happening within the next week or two. Question: After winning a NC at Florida St., why would he leave? Same tier jobs, similar money...what's the deal?

We lost yesterday in the facsion folks wanted O to coach. Let the coordinators coach and not meddle with the game plan. The game plan was stout, execution was poor. Adjustments were made, execution was poor. The only real coaching failure was catering to the idea that Fornette can make a splash in quite possibly, his last game in TS. There was only a handfull of play calls that were questionable, but for the most part, it was an awesome gameplan with adjustments made to stage a win.

Kids played like they were assured a win and executed poorly when it counted the most. There is a lot of positive that can be taken from this game that should be credited to the staff while there is little that can taken away.

There certaily are some coaches that need to be fired that should have been gone by Miles hand. Their perspective play has cost the team throughout the season. O can take some credit for this one, both good and bad, but the loss is not his to bare alone. Sure he is 0-2 on scale games, but he lost them trying to win as apposed to trying not to lose. Doing that with what he inherited should be a credit, not a slight. Saban takes over this team under the same circumstances and likely gets the same results. I think a lot of folks are grading O the wrong way. He has out coached Miles despite the losses and some folks are missing that by simply looking at W/L's. Damn, O actually loses better than Miles wins...

I don't know if he should be our next HC, I am not qualified to make that distinction, but I have seen enough to know he needs a season with a staff of his chosing to appreciate a qualified appraisal. I would certainly give him that chance before making a desperate choice because the clock is running down. We can't land on our short list, O needs a season to right this thing and buy us time for the right hire or earn the gig himself.

Great post! I agree........but it won't matter!

If Jimbo destroys Florida this weekend it's a great hire. If Florida beats him down, it's the dumbest decision ever. Of course it isn't that simple, but somebody will write a story about it.

While your assessment may be spot on, O needed to basically win out minus the bama game to have a shot. To lose at home, to a banged up and depleted gator squad won't resonate well. LSU faces another stiff defense at aTm in a few days, odds are now stacked against O.

Stiff defense?

sure, but now i'm hearing through 'sources' that Jimbo is a done deal and it will be announced within the next couple of weeks. when i heard it last year i wondered if it was legit or just him and his agent playing money games.

I asked this in another thread. What changed from last year to this year regarding the "playing money games". If we pay jimbo something stupid like 7 mil per year we are freaking stupid.
