He’s got another year before he can be fired. Not sure we can even afford the buyout at that point. But most of the assistant coaches with the exception of Surtain, our DB coach, should be fired. December will be interesting to see what happens with the staff.

They just finished paying Taggert....I wish someone would pay me $30M to NOT be their coach.

Fairly certain they played Tennessee 🤔

Correct, got excited seeing both Alabama and OSU get beat.  Not to worry, ESPN and ABS will find a way to keep 6 SEC multi-loss teams in the playoff.

FSU can’t fire him while continuing to pay his salary?

I don’t think we have mega-donors like A&M had with Jimbo. Especially now with us having to pay NIL. Earliest I’ve heard we could let go of him, due to finances, is 2026.

Next week is FSU, I think we are in danger...FSU is a wounded animal and those kids will rise to this game...they all know and played against each other in high school.

Florida State’s loss to Duke means the 1-6 Seminoles must win out to avoid missing a bowl for 4th time in last 7 seasons. Remaining games:

At Miami
UNC
At Notre Dame
Charleston Southern
Florida

He faked it.  Double hex curse upon the FSU house now.

Not going to happen. We’ll be lucky to win 2 of those.

You should take Charleston Southern, who is currently 1-6 as well; but they have been playing tough against a challenging schedule.  Still, the Seminoles should win this one being it's at home.

Notre Dame (6-1)?  Nope.

UNC (3-4)?  Maybe?

UF (4-3)?  We will go into that game pretty beat up.  We lost our starting quarterback (Graham Mertz) but DJ Lagway looked pretty good for a freshman quarterback against Kentucky (3-4).

But we still have to play Georgia (6-1) in Jacksonville on 2 Nov, Texas (6-1) in Austin on 9 Nov, LSU (6-1) at home 16 Nov, Ole Miss (5-1) at home 23 Nov, then y'all (1-6) in Tallahassee on 30 Nov. 

We were considered to have the toughest schedule in college football this year, with eight games against preseason top 25 teams.

We'll be lucky to beat y'all, especially being it's a home game for you which makes things even tougher!

Since 1958, we are 37-28 with two ties against FSU; but y'all have won the last two years. 

Predictions are FSU has an 82% chance of winning, by an expected score of 37-20. 🤬🤬

No way we put up 37 points. We are averaging about 13 points a game. I think we have 9 or 10 TDs on the year, one of those being a kick return. But I'll take anything positive for the Seminoles this year. 

I'll say Luke Kromenhoek did look pretty solid in his first CFB showing as a true freshman. He had two dimes that would have been TDs if his receivers had caught the ball. I just want to finish the season knowing what QB is going to start in '25 and replace all of our offensive assistant coaches and bring in an O coordinator who will put in place his own system. I think Norvell got fortunate with Jordan Travis who was able to hide a lot of his offensive system's flaws. 

Here is to hoping we don't get savaged by Miami this Saturday. 😆

Update, college freshman as of yesterday took one for the team. No bullshit, (only dogshit.)

Flew down last minute to attend the game with some Bros from college and my boy, scored some great seats.

The game was closer than the final score, FSU found a way to pressure Cam with a series of Zone Blitzes...it worked and I hope we fix it in practice.  What FSU could not stop was the run and it cost them.  Miami running back Fletcher lost his father this week when he died unexpectedly, he honored his dad with an unreal performance.

I was surprised at how civil both teams were given the rivalry...yes there was some back and forth but in between plays I saw a lot of shaking hands and laughing, especially in the secondary.  There was a point in the second half went a FSU player went down hard and stayed down for a quiet a bit (they did not show the replay but I think he got knocked out).  Most of the FSU players went down on one knee and the Miami players AND coaches quickly followed suit.  Refreshing even in a rivalry game.

FSU's QBs showed some grit, they are both going to be sore today. 

Minor gloating to follow - 2024 State Champs - The U!

Nice ride 🙌

FSUs Offensive Line has holes like Riley Reid.

It doesn’t matter what talent is on the rest of that team if you’re going to give up whole drives to just bad protection of the quarterback.
