Tomahawk Nation, a Florida State Seminoles community

If [jumping to the Big 12] is what's best for Florida State, then that's what we need to do. -- Coach Jimbo Fisher

FSU was a trendy pick to compete for a national title last season, and by and large it failed to meet expectations. Fisher is a talented offensive coach, but the Seminoles’ porous offensive line and invisible running game have to reflect on him. Then again, the Noles are trendy again, aren’t they? Anything less than an Atlantic Division title in 2012 will be an (yet another) absolute failure for the program. Link to list is at the bottom of the page...

Go halfway down the page. The middle column has a "Radio" box. Jimbo's interview is the second interview under Beano Cook's interview (about the Arkansas radio announcer that lost her job for wearing a UF hat). Jimbo talks Ponder, the loss of McCray and Fortson, JaMarcus Russell, the early Oklahoma game.

Discusses Fisher's first staff meeting. Quote on recruiting: "The big guys are a priority," Fisher told his assistants. "We have to change ourselves on the defensive line, and our offensive linemen are getting older. We need grown-ass men."

Oregon has Chip Kelley, the finest offensive mind in the college game, locked up for their HCIW spot. They're handling this well. Their coach has a fairly reasonable timeline to vacate the position. Further, they are letting their heir apparent make decisions about the coaching staff. Publicly! These firings and new hirings are mostly related to philosophy and recruiting ability. If only Jimbo had the ability to fire Chuck Amato, maybe we wouldn't alienate so many head coaches on the recruiting trail.
