Sidenote.


FSU just got a commit from 5 star DE Josh Sweat (ranked 5th in the espn top 300) . This recruiting class is looking scary sic insane. Currently #2 recruiting class in the nation.

Jimbo has been a great recruiter, seems to be little drop off when a starter goes down..look at GT game when Eddie Goldman went down. These FSU teams are deep, Terrance Smith has been down often this year in our linebacker corp as well. Glad we have three weeks to get healthy on defense and Winston's ankle. I think his ankle contributed a lot to some of his poor play this season and he is finally starting to look healthy planting his foot and when he scrambles.

For fans hoping Noles will drop off, they are going to be disappointed.

If getting top recruiting classes year in and out then certain programs would still be on top consistently.

 

Sadly, it doesn't work that way.

That was with an awful coaching staff and a class full of kids who were worthless. Recruiting classes with Jimbo running the show won't fail like they did in Bowden's final years.

I'll take those odds. Jimbo and Co are also developing their classes. Bobby wasn't the same coach toward the end.

And certain programs do stay at the top having great classes.

Then why did FSU ever fall from the top for some time? Name me a program who has year in and year out after getting top 5 classes that have been there forever.

 

edit: Just using them as an example. There are many examples out there.

Because of poor coaching.

Well unless Jimbo falls of a cliff, that will be a longgggg time.  No one said it would last forever, but the Noles are going to be good for a while.
