How do you expect wvu to come up with the money to hire someone Like Fisher?
. We could throw money at Fisher and still come up with 7 to 8 wins a season. Jimbo ain't the answer. The answer is to put a chicken in every pot. Every administrator, every coach, every player gets a chicken or two. Throw the entire GDP of WV at the football team and you MIGHT get more than 8 wins.
The WVU job could have happened back in 2007 had Pastilong not messed it up. He tried to go too cheap and FSU got wind (via the agent Jimmy Sexton).
Please no. He’s very overrated.How do you expect wvu to come up with the money to hire someone Like Fisher?
He may be overrated but he sure knows how to squeeze money out of his current employer. Who knows if he's actullay interested in T&am but he gets to play one side off against the other just like he did when Lsu pursued him. He's a smart business man.Please no. He’s very overrated.
Business man, yes. Elite coach, no.He may be overrated but he sure knows how to squeeze money out of his current employer. Who knows if he's actullay interested in T&am but he gets to play one side off against the other just like he did when Lsu pursued him. He's a smart business man.
Good grief...another vote for the poor old little WV candidate. Well if 7 or so wins is your expectation and your level of satisfaction then you have the right coach and attitude now.
I don't think it had anything to do with WVU being cheap. He was under contract with FSU as their "coach in waiting" and they, FSU, wouldn't let him out of it.
very good coach? If he was, he would dominate the ACC. If he were at WVU, he would make Dana look like he was elite. Sorry, but he would win less hereMy info is from Jimbo's side. It is from a friend of his since days at Salem. The guy to this day talks to him weekly and vacations with as well as goes to FSU games. He goes to his house. Trust me it is his side and I believe it.
There was a term sheet agreed to by all parties. Jimbo had went home, told his then wife, "let's pack our bags, we're going home!"
Less than an hour later, Pastilong via phone call tells either Jimbo directly or through his agent Jimmy Sexton, there was an agreed bonus for a National Title Game appearance of like $250-500k that WVU wanted to lower. He said he couldn't believe it. It gave FSU Boosters time to sign him long term probably because Sexton was probably working both sides for his client. He said there was no way I could ever work with Pastilong after that.
Btw Jimbo is not long for FSU.
Had he came to WVU, we couldn't have afforded to keep him. He would have been very good given the offensive talent WVU had at the time. He is a very good coach.
He has a National Title and is 83-23 with a conference record of 48-17 (5-2 in bowl games) since 2010. If that's not dominating the ACC, what is?!very good coach? If he was, he would dominate the ACC. If he were at WVU, he would make Dana look like he was elite. Sorry, but he would win less here

Jimbo Fisher is about to have a rude awakening if he takes the job in College Station.
What do you mean IF he takes the job. He's gone, headed to College Station, and according to an acquaintance of mine who has known him since Salem (where they both coached by Terry Bowden), he was gone by mid season. Biggest reason was $$$$$$$ and resources (staff $$$$$$) at A&M vs FSU.

No one wants to play for a coach who had a wife spreading her legs for every man in town.

Please no. He’s very overrated.

2015- 10-3Jimbo was a great coach. The thought throughout the football world was that he was a great coach.
Two incidents changed his life
1) Situation with his son. He actually thought about leaving football because of his son.
2) The situation over his wife cheating on him. Divorce happen and the two sons moved out.
Beginning in 2015 Florida State started to unravel.
A little more in 2016. Really begin to unravel in 2017.
Jimbo Fisher in 2017 is not the same coach and recruiter he was in 2011.
For instance Miami and Mark Richt have been bending Fisher over this year in Florida for recruits.
Fisher has not been able to recruit or coach this year.
The belief was that he had already accepted A&M's job in September.
Who knows. Bama's blow out of FSU happened before UCLA's comeback.
He did all that with Bowden's players![]()
