    Fisher was on the short list to replace Brown and was interested in the job. He failed the background check element of the job search in about every possible way and was therefore never seriously pursued after that research. 

    Why did he fail the background check? There were multiple reasons. He was involved at the time in covering up rape, paying players, heavy drinking fighting with the FSU administration, fighting with boosters and going through the early stages of what would eventually be a divorce, with the poorly kept secret that his wife was fucking anything that walked and he was looking the other way. He also came across as a hillbilly and KF assessed that he’d be an unlikely cultural fit at Texas. 

    Jimbo's issues with the Evan Williams Green Label is legendary, especially when he showed up to an FSU booster party hammered and started belting out Jason Aldean songs. 

    The booster group at FSU couldn't stand the guy and his dickish behavior didn't endear him to many other people in that town. Monk Bonasorte was one of the only people who could really soothe over that relationship. When he died, he was all downhill from there. 

    While marrying a girl from Alabama named Candy comes with it's own risks, Jimbo was laying pipe around Tallahassee at the same time. That seems to get overlooked when they want to make Candy look like the bad person in the marriage. It wasn't a secret how poorly he treated that woman. Now he's married to a Tallahassee townie who has skeletons in her own closet.

    I worked by the North Dallas location on Campbell and had lunch there a few times. it's typical Tex-Mex, nothing outstanding about it, but not bad either. 

    I went to that location the last time I was in Dallas. It was pretty pedestrian but better than anything I can find in FL.

    Looks like Looch got caught up in WRs under Jimbo conversation today too. I'm sure he's making excellent points but I have no idea what those may be.

    Billy has no counterargument that Jimbo doesn't put WRs in the league. It's hard to argue with facts.

    I’ve seen it on there many times that Jimbo will be the first assistant to beat Saban, and once that happens it will be the end of the Bama dynasty. I’m not exaggerating. 

    😂

    He had a team in 2017 that was more talented than what he has at Aggy and couldn't pull it off

    Jimbo was a good recruiter, but some of his evaluations were very questionable. Kind of like Mack closing on 23 kids out of 25 scholarship offers late in his tenure, except only 15 of those had other P5 offers. 

    No doubt, some of Jimbo's evals are VERY suspect as is his willingness to take chances on kids with character issues

    They also forget that the Seminoles were fucking loaded with NFL talent when Jimbo moved from OC to HC. They were underperforming toward the end of Bowden’s run but that team was DEEEEEP with size and speed. Washington was deep in accountants. 

    The recruiting never really dropped off. Bowden was a closer, even more so than Jimbo.

    LOL at comparing Jimbo at FSU and Sark at Washington.  The five years before Sark took the reigns, the Huskies went 12-47. 6 conference wins in 5 years.

    It’s a fucking miracle he got that team to .500, much less winning bowl games.

    I know it's Aggy but that is an idiotic comparison. Even though it was time for Bowden to go, none of his 2000s teams prior to Jimbo's arrival had losing records. Aggy conveniently forgets that Jimbo also had three years as OC prior to taking over as head coach. Sark walked in off the fucking street at Washington.

    Right, doesn't bode well for him. Jimbo's offense with an experienced line, and a Sr QB, emphasized a TE and a RB as the top two pass catchers. I am sure Demas will enjoy blocking for RB and TE screens all year with an inexperienced oline and QB.

    That overly complex offense doesn't produce many high draft picks at WR. Most receivers in that offense don't see the field before their junior year.

  9. Lumberjack pellets are all I use. I've got a Traeger Ironwood 650 and a Camp Chef Woodwind 36 but I still have my traditional offset smoker, which I use when I have time to babysit the cook.

    Pellet grills are fantastic and pretty versatile. I've made all kinds of shit on mine from brisket, ribs, queso, smoked cheese, fish and even pizzas. I've had brisket almost as good as a traditional smoker.

  10. They’re clearly still a four loss team at minimum and Florida was over hyped as they have been any time they touch the top 10 post Tebow. That said it’s not really going to help when we’re also shitting the bed. Moral of the story we’re both going to continue to lose top recruits out of state.

    They beat an overrated Gator team with a shit defense. BFD.

    Wasn’t Pruitt the DC for that national title?

    Yes but he was only there for one season. Mark Stoops should get a lot of credit for that '13 defense at FSU. He bolted after the 2012 season and took Eddie Gran with him, a big reason supposedly being because Jimbo dressed him down in the locker room after a game for some reason.

    Looch really goes all in on Florida State, Big 12, and Texas. "Texas A&M is more of a football school than Florida State. Yea I know they have the history, but we're SEC aggy!"
    Then talks about the Big 12 flubs before showing the real scumbag he is about how the Austin and national media prop up "Simple Sam" (you know what he's referencing) when he puts up numbers again nobody.
    Just another banner hour of radio for this fanboy piece of shit.

    Newsflash Billy. You're Aggy. You've never won shit. Florida State has. Therefore they're more of a football school than Aggy.

    The long-term impact of the Jimbo Fisher bag man recruiting model.


    https://thespun.com/acc/florida-state/kirk-herbstreit-thinks-1-major-program-has-a-culture-problem

    That article glosses over how badly Jimbo Fisher screwed up that program. Part of it is on the FSU admin for coddling him and giving him everything he wanted when he threw his tantrums but Jimbo royally screwed up that program and Taggart is a joke. Norvell has a tough climb.
