hahahahahaah. not this FSU. not these days.

the FSU you're thinking of is the one that lost EIGHTEEN games in FOURTEEN seasons (87-00).

the fsu you see playing now has lost TWENTY-ONE games in FIVE seasons (01-05).

i've got to update this list later today, but i'll post it now for a start.

 

Larry, he's trying to explain to you that the guys you've gotten on offense have sucked ass regardless of whatever god damned rank they had in high school. They sucked, end of story. They didn't suck because of play calling or because they had bad position coaches. They sucked because they suck.

 

He'll thank me later. Call it the Brain fucking Morrison syndrome. After seeing him and Boone dribble ball after ball off their legs, I really just had to start asking myself what teh hell these analysts are thinking.

 

you're funny.

so, fsu is the only school who has over rated players?

what about all of the other schools who are recruiting "better" players?

i'm not catching it...

you guys are wrong. fsu's "coaching" sucks and has for a long time. if you actually went to games or covered the team then you'd know.

you want to see how ignorant bowden is? let me find you some quotes...

 

Q: Is the personality of this team that it's not going to be a team that has 300 yards passing and 200 yards rushing?

A: "You know what my answer to that is? And it might be wrong. But it's 'who cares?' Who cares how you do it? This whole thing about having to establish the run to win, we've already proven two dadgum weeks in a row that ain't right. Now the odds might be better."

 

Q: Does that worry you that down the road when you are recruiting that it may be tougher to get the great running back?

A: "That will help us. We'll tell 'em, 'you can help us run if we can get you, son. Son, you can solve all our problems. We can't run the ball. We need you."

 

"I don't like offensive football the way it is nowadays. Offensive football today is a game of formations. When I used to work the offense, you lined up in one formation and you played that way the whole game. You could tell every thing the other team was doing. If they did this, you go there. If they did this, you go here. If they do this, you do that. But now it's 'put this formation in and they do this. Put this formation in and they do that.' Try to always get some kind of a mismatch. But that's the way the pros play it. Colleges are the same way."

 

questions for y'all college football experts

1. even if some of FSU's recruits were overrated, don't you think they should do better than TWENTY ONE losses in five years?


2. how do you explain steve spurrier's offensive success? hardly any of his players amounted to worth a darn on sundays yet he had heisman winner and put up numbers and TDs all day long.


3. which teams are the best recruiters? louisville? west virginia? which teams have the best coaches? are they two differnt things?

 

Larry...they won't "get it." They don't want to. And you know Collin will NEVER get it. It's his way or no way. How many games does he go to? Who is his team? What recruiting sites does he pay to be a member of? Just curious. Hell, the Rivals guy for the Gamecocks works his ass off. I've known him since 2nd grade. He spends about 60 hours per week on that site...but Collin knows recruiting better. Rivals has a staff of 100's that put in that time. So does Scout...but Collin knows recruiting better. He likes to point out that I said Amato was a D Coordinator for FSU. Ooops. I screwed up. Don't follow ACC like I do SEC. I admit it. Fact is....he doesn't know shit about college talent and how "coaching up" is as important as is what you recruit.

It's OBVIOUS that FSU is getting the cream of the crop...but once it gets there they stop growing. They stagnate. Before Richt left, they continued to get better.

Georgia, Miami, Florida, Auburn...they are all trying to get the same people. You can see on Rivals that the highly touted recruits at FSU have offers from all the biggies. Richt WANTED those guys...he just lost out on them. Same with Tubberville, Coker, etc...
