Quote:Really? I mean I haven't really watched FSU closely since the Ponder/Manuel days when I was in Tally, but I wasn't that impressed. I wouldn't be shocked if FSU has huge regression after Winston leaves this year (or possibly next, even tho I think thats unlikely). Jimbo never struck me as a great coaching genius, he was still the 'head coach' when Bowden was being run out of town for not doing good. I mean maybe this works out, but I think its the definition of 'buying high.'

He's completely changed the culture here since Bowden left. From changing the nutrition program for the players to bringing in a sports psychologist to creating a unity council that is lead by the players as well as revamping the strength and conditioning program. Our players used to lack strength but have speed or vice versa. Now our players are strong and fast.


This program was heading down the toilet fast, and he's brought it back to an elite level in four years. With the way he is recruiting too, FSU is here to stay as long as he is in charge. There won't be any rebuilding. We will just continue to reload.


He's without a doubt a top five coach right now in the country.
