I’m not disagreeing with that point. But everything you said about FSU was us in ‘22. Obviously our on the field product was a bit better but I don’t think I’d be surprised to hear he is interested. Other than him, I don’t see any P4 coach giving them the time of day. Sanders included.

Maybe. I don’t know if it’s as simple as opening the checkbook anymore. I’m not trying to turn this into a Mario vs Lane debate, but realistically other than those two who would we have had a realistic chance with? Maybe they can poach Lane, but I don’t see any other sitting HC with name recognition.

Accept the money issue seems since shalala left Miami has decided to focus on sports again ..

They got better at QB with Castellanos, but the QB room overall blows. RB is average, nothing special. WR is a dumpster fire. Their WRs going into last year was the reason I kept saying they’d suck. That TE they have is going to be a good one. OL blows. Castellanos will be running for his life half the time.

Defense will be scrappy, but you gotta be able to score. All in all I think they’re a 4-8/5-7 team. Norvell gets ****canned mid season 26’, since they can’t afford to buy him out + staff and go for a big name coach.

As a program, it just feels like they have zero momentum at the moment.

Not sure signing Herve Villachaize to QB is a step up, considering he’s going to have step up on a step ladder to see downfield.

It’s so weird that we hyper focus on one or two coaches. Like college football isn’t full of guys who are capable of winning if given the resources.

Let’s look at the CFP coaches last year

Lanning- Georgia DC
Smart- Alabama DC
Danielson- promoted from within
Sarkisian- Alabama OC
Dillingham - Oregon OC
Franklin - Vanderbilt HC
Swinney - promoted from within
Freeman - promoted from within
Day - promoted from within
Heupel - UCF HC
Cignetti - JMU HC
Lashlee - Miami OC

I personally like the idea of hiring a successful coordinator from a big time program because they’re used to big boy recruiting. Obviously promoting from within is only a good move if the prior head coach was successful. And hiring an up and comer from a smaller school is always a gamble.

Let’s hope FSU promotes from within when they finally dump Norvell.

So they’ve become us under Shalala. Although as mediocre as we were, we never had 3-6 and 2-10 years (they’ve had both in the last five years). 5-7 was our worst, and pretty sure UF hasn’t dipped below 4-7 recently.

But they got spoiled and decided that they deserved better than Jimbo. They saw the downward trajectory, and didn’t attribute it to any external factors, but simply chalked it up to Jimbo’s deficiencies. Now after back-to-back misses, they are in the same place we were right before we hired Richt. Not sure they realize it though. Nor am I sure they have the money.

I don’t think so… Shalala didn’t want to invest in athletics, but she built a monster in UHealth.

Looks to me like FSU has a president whose focused on borrowing money, not making it.

Well, I just meant how stagnant the football program was. However, FSU’s president is also focused on building up their med school and health facilities now as well.

Terrible take, you’re supposed to root for your rivals. So, when you beat them, you get credit for it. If FSU & Florida were both 9-3 and ranked, Miami makes the playoff in 2024.

Can’t tell if you are being serious or not, but I will never root for our rivals. My hatred for FSU and UF is at an all time high. Maybe social media has played a part in that. Like the other poster that responded earlier, I hope they go winless.

I don’t root for either team when they play each other. There is an always a little joy that one team will have another loss, but it’s at the expense that one of those teams has to win.

Don’t root against either unless they’re playing us. Arrived on campus the season after the Gator Flop. Sincerely hate those donkeys. But, they play who they play. Am I happy if they lose , Yes. Same with FSU. Do I think they’re a bunch of loser D-Bags definitely. But, ultimately it’s about us, what we do. We determine our success. Beat their As**ss we good. But we have bigger fish to fry, like every mfer on our schedule. It’s the generational rage against our two intimate foes that fuels us, motivates us to succeed and be great. Boys we are on that precipice of this season. Let’s F**k some S**t up🙌🏽
