Florida State university is dead.

A shame. They are no better than Wake in their off year. Wake beats 2 out of 3. Sad watching a power die like Kong in some woods somewhere.

FSU is a sleeping giant, it's only a matter of time until someone awakens it. (New coach or current coach turns it around)

It's true , they're too far into blue blood status based on their great past under Bowden to ever fall right off the table . I do think though that it's going to be a while before they've rectified the problem .

I think they are in way worse shape than you think. They are bad shape.

Look at Nebraska

A blueblood superpower for decades, then they slid downhill and still haven't made it back... And they may never make it back. When one of these powerhouses fall, we always expect it to be temporary, but nothing is guaranteed.

The state of Nebraska isn’t a recruiting gold mine like Florida is, nor is it such a nice seeming destination for a 17 year old picking a college. Powerhouses that check those boxes rarely stay down for long.

FSU is a 4 year rebuild for a new coach, who would need to have started 2 weeks ago.

FSU is just hibernating. Taggart is dead.

IMHO Jeff Scott, Tony Elliott and even BV could not turn down the FSU job. Not to mention many other talented coaches. Scott has many roots in FLA. Goes to show how poor a selection the FSU AD made with Taggart.

No one cried when we tanked. Zero sympathy for them. I just wonder how much of the demise is Jimbo driven versus Taggart. because I think Jimbo left knowing it was headed downhill.

I know a lot of people think about Dino Barders going there, but I was wondering yesterday, what if Dave Clawson went to FSU. His Brand of Offense would certainly fit in there too.

I had rather see them hire Sparky Woods. If they down, keep them down. If we went down, Fla State fans would be ecstatic.

They will be back. Not sure if they will be back anytime soon though.

Four Top Ten Recruiting Classes with A New Coach would do it. They are in an incredibly fertile recruiting area !

And six short years ago, they were National Champions. All the more reason to enjoy every minute of the run WE are currently on.
