New Story: Jimbo Fisher says Dabo Swinney and Clemson "are taking off"

Jimbo Fisher says Dabo Swinney and Clemson "are taking off"

Jimbo Fisher and Dabo Swinney have had their share of battles – blowouts, high scoring affairs, nail-biters and last-second wins – and Florida State’s head coach expects Saturday to be no different.

No disrespect intended, but is Jimbo capable of putting together a coherent sentence? Or maybe two coherent thoughts?

Go Tigers! Scalp the 'Noles.

Well he better

Make sentences cause that's a great paragraph, a great book he's trying to get done. Those are good words, but you better be ready to put 'em together, better be up on your spelling or it's gonna be a long day writing. It's like that guy at the library. What's he thinking? He's thinking i before e and don't end a sentence with a peposition. That's what he's thinking. And you better have a good eraser and have your pencil sharp. You let your pencil get dull those words, I mean, letters ain't words. It takes more than letters to make words and just cause you have words don't mean you have a sentence.

Like him (Jimbo) or not he's always been a very gracious coach.
Reminds me of CDS, when he loses he's still positive and doesn't blame the refs, the ACC commissioner, etc...
Last year after they lost he told CDS at mid field to "Go on and win it all."
He's a class guy, unlike Neck Brace Bobby and Sniveling DD.

So Jimbo didn't blame the refs at all when we beat them


Nov 9, 2017, 9:06 AM

last year?


"In the fourth quarter, the ‘Noles were leading 28-26 and had the ball. On 1st and 10, FSU fullback Freddie Stevenson was called for an illegal block that negated a huge Dalvin Cook run that ended deep in Clemson territory.

After the game, Fisher called the penalty “cowardly, gutless, and wrong.” On Sunday, the ACC announced a reprimand for Fisher, including a fine of $20,000."

Ah that's just theatrics. He has to please the Alumni else he won't keep his job, which looks like it may be in danger now anyway.

He told Dabo to "go win it all" two years ago.***

He was talking to his players.

Evidently their putting game is off due to lack of focus.

Did not read - "taking off" sounds like something positive for FSU. When I think of their program after Francois went down to injury, I think "Crash and Burn".

Nov 9, 2017, 8:24 AM

Ive always liked Jimbo but you can see all in this article then He and the FSU administration are not on the same page. He is wanting more investment in keeping the program up to date and he isnt getting it. this is not the first time I have heard him talk like this. There are rumors that aTm is coming after him to replace Sumlin.. I know he could have had LSU last year but the AD at aTm is apparently someone he worked with at LSU make in the early 2000s. Hard to imagine anyone leaving FSU for anywhere but if the admin and him are at odds, plus his personal life has taken a hit the last few years then this football season.. maybe the time is right. I hope not, I like Jimbo and he and Dabo make for a good rivalry with FSU.

Yikes!? His press transcript is like a challenging word scramble....

But I do like him, generally. He's the type of guy you'd want to have a few drinks with, assuming he even does drink. Boy, that would be entertaining!

I can't hear as fast as he talks. Maybe if he has a few drinks he would slow down some, and maybe then I could keep up with the conversation.

Sorry Jimbo. The Tigers are not taking off. We're cruising at altitude. He has some trouble with metaphors (golf, flying). But he's a great coach. Tiger's better be ready.

Re: did someone wake him up from a deep sleep just before


Nov 9, 2017, 10:56 AM

......but let me talk a little about our program. We got good kids. Our quarterback is a good kid and he's learning. Deandre had a tough break and we got some injuries but Derwin James is something and number 56 is gonna be playing on Sundays. And our facilities are top notch, second to none. Let me tell you something, our facilities are world class, just world class. I give our AD all the credit, and our president and our coaches and assistants. And our fans...FSU fans are the best. I love it when they drive to Tallahassee from hundreds of miles away to watch Seminole football. And they make that noise and do that chop and cheer when Chief Nokahoma charges out to mid-field and drives that flamin' spear into the turf. Just gets my hairs standin'. And then watching Cam make that run. Did you see that 75 yard run against Duke and that 58 yard run against Middle Tennessee State A&T? And let me tell you, our O line is a lot better. Just six illegal procedures the last game. They are gettin' better. And our tight end? If he doesn't win the Mackey award there should be a Congressional investigation. And if Rickey doesn't win the Toza award there should be a senatorial investigation. And Kelly at Defensive coordinator. Did you see the way he ran out on the field last week and charged into that referee. A lot of passion. Next week we got Florida comin' in here. Tough game, tough team. Their offense is comin' around and their defense is tough. It's gonna be a tough game. Real tough. We gotta play tough if we wanna win. But our fans will give us great support. It's a night game. Gonna be fun........blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.......

Taking off?


Nov 9, 2017, 12:13 PM

Clemson won the last two games versus FSU.
Clemson has won 8 of the last 14 games versus FSU.

The record suggests the wheels are off the ground and we are flying pretty high.



But as others have noted, Jimbo's gibberish suggests his mouth keeps running on and on long after he's left the world of coherent thought.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yeah hopefully one day we can be

Jimbo Fisher is not 'a great coach', for those who think otherwise. Recruits like crazy, talks a good game, and underachieves. No way on God's green earth FSU should be staring at a 6th loss EVER. No way FSU's OL should EVER look like they have the last 2 or 3 years. Jimbo is the new Mac Brown. Mac Brown would never have sniffed a NC without Vince Young, and that's at TEXAS, for crying out loud. Likewise, Jimbo would never have sniffed one without Winston. With FL and Miami being down like they have, FSU should be running roughshod over them, and they aren't. And man, is it painful to try to follow his comments. Will they give us a good game? Probably so, but it won't be because Fisher is any great coach. If they can't get motivated for this game, then they have absolutely quit on their 'great coach', and I'm not certain they haven't quit on him. Something is amiss in Tallahassee. Here's hoping we've got some guys healed up this week.
