Fisher has taken over at Florida State and all he has done in the short time is build a quality staff who can coach and recruit. Speaking of recruiting Florida State is on fire on the recruiting trail since Bowden announced his retirement. Jimbo Fisher has just gone to work and no one is going to outwork our guys anymore. More importantly he isn't making an ass out of himself in the process like Lane Kiffin. Jimbo is just fine with me. Less talk and more action.
He has already made significant changes. First he fired all the coaches who couldn't coach and didn't recruit. That has been fixed. All the new coaches are great coaches and great recruiters. Rumor has it they all like each other and get along great. Amazing what happens when everyone is on the same CHAMPIONSHIP page and all do not tolerate SLACKERS including themselves. Just think FSU was short handed in real coaching and recruiting this year and managed to still pull off a winning record and a bowl victory.
There is nobody on this planet who respects and loves Bobby Bowden more than me but honestly it was time for change. He deserves to enjoy the rest of his life stress free and with his family and towards the end he realized that. Fisher has finished his staff and the following is that Staff
Head Coach Jimbo Fisher: Disciple of Saban and Bowden. Extremely hard worker who knows how to organize a Championship football program through Saban's process and do it with class from Bowden.
Offensive Coordinator/Tight Ends Coach James Coley: Jimbo considers him to be an offensive genius and he is the hardest working recruiter on staff. He is already a legend in South Florida and he imposes his will on the Canes and Gators. Miami knows they are in trouble with FSU having the best South Florida recruiter on the planet.
Running Backs/Special Teams Eddie Gran: He spent last year at Tennessee and the previous 10 years at Auburn. Running backs under his direction were Carnell Williams (TB), Ronnie Brown (MIA), Rudi Johnson (CINN), Brandon Jacobs (NYG) and Deuce McAllister (NO). The second best South Florida recruiter on the planet and he can coach the hell out of some running backs.
Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Line Rick Trickett: The BEST Offensive Line Coach in the country. 4 of the 5 current starters on the Seminoles will be in the NFL with Rodney Hudson being a projected first round pick. Great Recruiter. He knows exactly what he wants in a lineman and nobody is better at making "3 Star" prospects NFL Caliber lineman.
Wide Receivers Coach/Passing Game Coordinator Lawerence Dawsey: Former FSU Player who will die for his alma mater. Has Florida State receivers blocking down field, catching balls in traffic, and blowing by opponents with blinding speed. He has taken back the Tampa Bay and Jacksonville area in recruiting. Most improved coach on the Staff. Love this guy!
Quarterbacks Coach Dameyune Craig: Jimbo Fisher clone. Hard working and tenacious recruiter. Jimbo trusts him to coach the QB position that's because Jimbo coached Craig at Auburn. He will be the recruiter traveling around during the season as well getting eyes on prospects sooner rather than later. He might be the Recruiting Coordinator as well.
Defensive Coordinator/defensive Backs Mark Stoops: Good recruiter and well he is a Stoops so that definitely means he knows defense. Has ties to South Florida when he was the DB coach for the Hurricanes and coached Ed Reed, Sean Taylor, Phillip Buhcannon, and Antrel Rolle. The yougest and hungriest of the Stoops brothers and may very well turn out to be the best.
Defensive Tackles Odell Haggins: Another former player on the staff who has been a very good recruiter for Florida State. Jimbo Fisher kept Odell because he is a great coach and recruiter and is well networked in the State of Florida and surrounding States. Class guy all the way.
Associate Head Coach/Linebackers Greg Hudson: Former Defensive Coordinator at ECU. An expert against the run and spread. Tenacious recruiter and might be the best technical coach on Staff. The days of Derrick Brooks, Sam Cowart, and Marvin Jones are coming back. Jeff Luc will be a monster under his guidance.
Defensive Ends Darin Eliot: Not much is known about him but he blew Jimbo fisher away at his interview. Rumored to be a James Coley clone who will be great at coaching Defensive Ends and recruiting non-stop. He is also a candidate to be the Recruiting Coordinator.
Strength and Conditioning Vic Viloria: Known as one of the three best S&C Coaches in the Nation. He will turn Florida State players into professional caliber players once again. Bigger, Faster, and more powerful Olympic style training. Alabama, LSU, and USC all use it. This training coupled with a top of the line nutrition program will have FSU winning ACC and National Titles once again.
GO NOLES!!!!!!
