FSU is broke

[K.O.M.A.]

Right before they got crushed by UGA (and Beck), they were 13-0 and must've thought that Norvell had built a machine to last for decades. Prison Mike really did hit it just right and caught lightning in a bottle:

• To his credit, he struck gold in the portal before the other players caught on. As much as we make fun of him, I do tip my cap for that. He mitigated his weakness (Recruiting and development) and found a huge opportunity in the portal.
• He had a (for FSU) generational QB who was not only a playmaker, but was also very twitchy so he could mask not the greatest OL for FSU. BTW, elite QB's aren't everything, but they really do make the difference.
  • As an example, Dabo did a great job in multiple areas when he had his run, but the true difference maker was having 2 great QB's in a row, then a good QB, who he then replaced with the best QB he ever had (Sunshine). Then, although he's had two 5 star QB's in a row, neither of them panned out like the other QB's and low and behold, the game has "passed him by".
• The Noles were so desperate to regain the Jameis "He actually is a rapist...that's real, BTW" Winston years, that when they had those two 10 win seasons, they thought they were entering a new golden age.
• But, instead of a new golden age, it was all a giant hallucination. Jordan Travis and the timing of the Portal's emergence was the perfect storm, and now they truly are a damaged and destroyed program as a result.
• I'm pretty sure the answer for FSU is not Manny, it's Deion. With his branding, recruiting prowess, history with the program, etc., he could bring them back sooner rather than later. His excitement could get their donors to put in new money. But, since they're caught in a cycle of mismanagement like we were in for years, they'll probably hire Manny... or hire Lane after the Tigah's fire him in 3 years.

I have friends who are big time boosters at FSPoo. They want no part of Deion...none

You gotta love those inbred *****s making stadium jokes when they haven't made a bowl in 2 years and we just played for the national championship. Its all they got though. Sad times.

Inbred ***** is wild

Factor in the product on the field, the record, team's play and ticket sales and attendance will plummet. Couldn’t happen to better bunch

We know Jameis is not helping out

I am pretty sure Deion has been to FSU once since Bowden was fired in 2009. Taggart convinced him to come there in a Spring situation. He didn't want to go then. Their relationship is worse now. Forgetting all this, my personal opinion is Deion is close to retirement because of his health. We shall see.

Not even He can help.

Maybe the football players could sell backpacks for a school fundraiser.

I was never a fan of Miami’s turnover chain. Thought it was a fun gimmick for a bit, but quickly grew old, especially when players were celebrating turnovers while losing in the fourth quarter. Not a good look. I’m glad Mario squashed it day one. The only bling Miami should collect is championship trophies and rings.

But whoever thought of the FSU turnover backpack…what the **** was she thinking?

 

[BALLHAWKU]

They still believe they’re leaving the acc with Clemson lol

He's also a terrible coach and an even worse recruiter.

I don't know what's funnier here. The backpack or the fact that they're losing to San jose St. LOL

TrumpyCane wonders how thats worked for CU

Best year is 9-4 sandwiched between 4 and 3 win season, still lost 4 games with a good QB and a heisman winner

He doesn't recruit, he doesn't focus on the trenches (sound familiar)

FSU best chance is to hire some up and coming G5 guy who wants to make a name for themselves

They aren't going to have a choice but to hire an up and coming G5 guy. They are broke broke.
