I wonder if FSU themselves even has a legit list. Gotta figure they assumed Jimbo was a lifer. Know there was LSU talk last year but figured that was just for him to get a raise. Wonder if he's using this A&M stuff to jump from "just top 5" highest paid to #1 highest paid coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the average fans can make a dent in revenue if there were a mass revolt but this is the same fan base that gave retards like Butch Jones and Derek Dooley 100,000+ butts in the seats. Hell we put 95k+ in the seats to watch Brady Hoke lead this sad sack of a team against LSU. Schiano would have come here, done random **** in the community to make it look like he's not a complete piece of garbage for a human being and fans would have largely been behind him. It's the millions of dollars being pulled by boosters/players/etc immediately after hiring him that matter. And what has the big money gotten Tennessee lately? I'm not saying it isn't important. But the most important thing in college athletics is wins and losses. The fans didn't want Schiano. Tennessee pulled back. You said it's foolish to think the fan base had anything to do with Schiano not getting hired. That simply isn't true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo's used leverage to his advantage in the past, but I keep reading about various "internal" displeasure. Part of me wonders if Jimbo isn't just jumping from a sinking ship early.....

That immediately becomes the most desirable job that opened up in quite some time. This guy seems like the logical choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tennessee fans ripping into Schiano for making Rutgers (!?!) into a consistent 8 win team, while Doeren has never won more than 8 games at a far superior program in NC State. Brohm is maybe equal, I think Schiano could have put together an elite staff. Obviously Gundy is a better option, doubt he leaves Okie State though.

TitanLegend Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I just still can't wrap my head around going after Schiano before Mike Gundy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas last year was much better, Oklahoma at the beginning of the year (if you count it, was always going to Riley), and UCLA this year is arguably better. Disagree. Texas is a great job and arguably better but I think OU and UCLA are a step down from FSU. UCLA is a huge step down IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronjon1990 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Well since Randy Shannon won't be retained, anyone think he could emerge as a candidate elsewhere? I've always really liked the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the quality of the job. There's a sense of fatigue that has set in. Sometimes a change like this would be good for all sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oregon peaked under Chip Kelly and have been irrelevant since. At FSU you'll compete every year. There's access to too much elite talent at a school like FSU, which is partly why Jimbo is under fire for the under-performance. Programs like Oregon and UCLA need to capture lightning in a bottle to be relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
