It has been a little quiet in regards to Jimbo to aTm move happening or not. I searched around and most FSU fans/sites seem to think that Jimbo will accept the Texas AM job after their game on Saturday. From the various places I looked, about 80+ percent of the talk was about Taggart being the man for the job. They all tend to think it's a foregone conclusion. I don't even know what would happen to our recruiting class/program if he left. I feel like we'd be looking at another multiple season reset if that were to happen.
And Chip Kelly was UO next head coach last year. The fact is no one knows, they are just laching onto the same story. The DC from PSU thinks he has a shot, rumor is he backed out on Miss St to wait on FSU.

Hard to take that Staples guy seriously. He looks kind of homer-ish. Saying FSU is "two or three tiers" better than Oregon? And that TAnM is a big downgrade? Florida State would be a sweet gig -- and Oregon is still relatively new to the national stage compared to some other longtime powerhouses -- but let's get real here.
Yeah, I don't know if you guys remember last year, but this is very reminiscent of the Jimbo to LSU rumors where lots of people convinced themselves it was a done deal. Guess time will tell.
I get money grabs but Jimbo already makes 6 mil a year, is 5-6 right now and the 4th highest paid coach. If I'm FSU I tell him to pound sand cause he's not in a power position IMO.
So much for his bold proclamation of Jimbo not leaving FSU; lasted all of one week. Don't believe a word he says. If he was legit, he'd have a lot more than 3,869 followers
This seems to be getting confirmed from sources beyond the Twitter rabble-rousers. I'm a bit confused. I'm not really sure why Willy would be the #1 prospect vs some of the candidates FSU could probably pull. He can recruit but I'm still not convinced on game planning and adjustments.
Who would you want as a replacement? I'm going with:

1 Petersen (longshot)
2 Sumlin
3 Leavitt
I have ZERO desire to hire Sumlin, unless we want to remain mediocre forever and win 7-8 games every single year. The dude made his name and rode the coat tails of a few QB's to get where he currently is.

I kind of feel that is true for every coach except Urban, Saban, Leach and Chip.
