Report: Florida State threatens Jimbo Fisher after player arrests
by Josh Hill 1d ago
Florida State has officially put Jimbo Fisher on notice after two of his players were arrested for violent offenses against women.
The NFL is currently being plagued by a domestic violence issue that has engulfed stars like Ray Rice, Greg Hardy and Adrian Peterson. While Peterson wasn’t busted for beating a woman, he was arrested for abusing a child, an offense that could land soon-to-be former Buffalo Bills coordinator Aaron Kromer in jail and out of the NFL for good.
Needless to say, there spotlight is on football for the wrong reasons, and the fact that the domestic abuse seeps down the college ranks bode well for no one. The Florida State Seminoles are quickly becoming the poster children for how to not conduct yourself in public, as the James Winston era is being followed by more terrible offenses by players against women.
This past week, Noles freshman quarterback DeAndre Johnson was kicked off the team after video surfaced of him savagely punching a woman and running off. That was followed a few days later by the arrest of five-star running back Dalvin Cook being arrested after he was accused of punching a woman in the face after she failed to humor his advances.
According to TMZ, the university has placed head coach Jimbo Fisher on notice following two of his players being arrested in a short amount of time for violent offenses against women.
This doesn’t come as a huge surprise, but it goes to show that the university is very aware of it’s image and no one is safe when it comes to salvaging that. Bobby Bowden was a legend at FSU and he was pushed out to save the image of the school, and Jimbo Fisher is no one compared to him.
Neither character is particularly sympathetic, but it’s now Fisher’s job to right the ship away from the football field as much as it is to return the Noles to the national championship in 2015.
