Tears Nole Tears (“Offcial”)

It was obvious FSU has a **** culture when the entire team chose to sit out of that bowl game and it was seemingly encouraged by Norvell. If you wanted to prove you were worthy you play that game. They didn’t. That’s a soft, loser mentality. No good coach/parent/mentor/ leader should ever encourage quitting like that. You go out and compete no matter what. Die on your shield. They showed their was to the whole CFB world with that.

I do not disagree.

I am just alluding to the fact that one of their writers responded to a question from a poster (and I think the screenshot is on here), explaining that "in the past couple of weeks" the writer started to have concerns about F$U's team culture, because he saw some practices where guys got in late hits, committed penalties, etc. And he's explaining it as if the F$U team "culture" suddenly went bad in ONLY the span of two weeks, but was just fine before that.

Oh 100% agree. lol either reporter is terrible at his job of evaluating the team all offseason or was lying through his teeth lol
 
Sun Belt Billy is a lost cause. Whether he's in over his head or was more a case of "wrong place, wrong time" at UF, the end result will be the same.

Cornrows might could reverse FSU's trajectory, but he'll have to make some hard decisions and significantly upgrade his staff. They've clearly got assistant coaches mailing it in. There are dynamics with benching players making the most NIL, but putting guys on the field who are going through the motions can't be acceptable

Culture IS important. A winning team SHOULD have a good culture around it. It may not be the most important factor, but it is a factor.

An example of this is Alabama last season.

Lost at home to Texas and then seven days later looked like garbage in the rain at USF.

A lot of fans and pundits wrote 'em off. The Tide's time as an elite program was done.

But Bama regrouped to beat Ole Miss in Tuscaloosa the next week and made it to the CFP a couple months later

Yeah, and if you listen to one of the many apologist podcasts from F$U writers/podcasters, one of them claims that the CFP broke the F$U culture. I should have marked that one and posted it, but I was bathing in Gator and SemenHole tears this weekend.

**** the official foodball X account put out a video a week or so ago of DL I think practicing recovering fumbles and it showed a bunch of guys jogging after the ball. That speaks volumes to the lack of culture and accountability and why they are were they are.

It's those ones with the lisps and or studders you HAVE to worry about. Them and the dudes who stay quiet through the whole beef are the ones who are first to bring the action. DJU aside, I'd put some respect on Pops name for sure.

this cant be real. I heard that stupid chant played 30-40 times. If Anything it should be the opposite of this. I mean this generation of fan doesnt not want to hear the war chant every 4-5 plays.

When I say this it doesn’t even come from any UM/FSU hating….that chant and how often they play it is the worst tradition I can think of in sports. Nails on a chalk board. 1 yard run? BUMBUMBADUMBADUM

Exactly. Culture is one of the dumbest talking points ever. Yes, if you have a bunch of me-first kids, you're probably not going to have a good team. You need leaders. But more than that, you need good football players to be good at football. You know what breeds good culture? Winning. You know what fractures it? Losing.

FSU isn't losing this year because they have poor culture. They didn't win last year because they had good culture.

They're losing this year because they have a lot of really ****** football players playing major snaps.

They won last year because they had a lot of really good football players playing major snaps.

Funny how that works, isn't it?

I’m yet to see a coach get hired and talk about how he’s not going to hold players accountable and discourage competition and leadership. It’s only when teams start losing do you hear about the negative “culture”. Players buy in when the results are there and they check out when the results aren’t there. It’s why you never hear about a terrible team that sucks but has a great team culture.
