See attached link.
Try to take of the fan goggles and realize.... this is how the rest of the universe views FSU's football and Jimbo.
Like I said last night, in 7 games this season, we took a Dodge Viper and barely managed to beat a Honda Civic by a tenth of a second...in a mile long race...
Don't throw people under the bus for having more forsight than you. This isn't just a small handful of fans willing to stand up and face the wrath they receive when they go against the "group think" on the board...
There is a small army of analysts mocking us behind our backs, because we are underacheiving CONSTANTLY.

Furthermore, not all 31-10 are equal.
You can be up 28-points at half time...and coast the rest of the way...
Or you can be up 7 late in the third quarter... when the other team kicks an onside kick (that is painfully obvious) and starts driving for the game-tieing touchdown.
When Corso/Herbstreit (and a small army of other analysts) are mocking you, picking against you on national TV, and calling out your coach for his decision making/game management....put your fan goggles down and follow Occam's razor

I had 3 fans (UF, UGA and auburn) tell me they would have broken their TV's (all said that unsolicited) if their team cared enough to show up but lost focus repeatedly in the red zone and let NIU hang around.
One friend who is a USC sr fan said, at least FSU cared enough to show up for the team dinner.
Hatian, I would submit in our conference with this schedule 12 wins is not asking too much.
we are not complaining we aren't winning the SEc every year and if we were in a real conference we would have been 8-4 or 7-5 this year while having arguably as much talent as anyone else in the country.
however, I think a lot of you are missing the point: do we see progress? That isn't just wins and losses. it is also
1.does this team show a killer instinct-last night, the answer was no-yet again.
2. does the offense continue to look like charlie foxtrot in 3rd down and in the red zone-the answer is yes, again.
3. did Jimbo refuse to pick the low hanging fruit again? arguably, yes when the dl is 240 across the front. At least matt Millen thought so. however, that is a debatable point.
4. as good as this defense is (and it is very good) does it let up whne teams are on the ropes-yes. we saw it when NIU drove down the field when we were up 17-3. Gt, Vt, arguably USF, etc.
however, #4 is a very minor point campared to 1-3.
I am not listing individual players because an individual player is actually minor in this overall proces.

Peter Thamel is an idiot. Corso and Herbstreit are employed to drive up ratings and they did their job. Please do not mistake ESPN hacks for independent journalists or analysts. For you to do that shows nothing but an unrestrained attempt to ridicule FSU football at all costs. Your "high ceiling" comments show that you live in a world of fantasy, where the results of today do not mean anything because the tomorrow potential of other athletes should have been given preference.
Your little examples are irritating because a game is played over 4 quarters, and although the media darling had to pull out all stops and caught our guys by surprise (even if they shouldn't have), they didn't have what it takes to win. FSU played well enough to win by 21 points against the number 15 ranked team in the country. I know, that ranking is a joke, but these are the same media pundits who defended FSU's BCS status becasue the numbers are the numbers. If I recall correctly, you were of the ones who ridiculed the SOS.
Here are your numbers numbskulls: 12-2, 2012 ACC Champs, 2013 Orange Bowl champs.
Suck it.

If I post you 500 articles written by 500 different professional analysts who give their opinion on sports for a living... and 99% of them said FSU was underacheiving with their talent... and likely will not win a championship due to Jimbo's inabilities.
Some of you guys would dismiss every single one of them... because it goes against what you WANT to happen. What you WANT to believe.
Mountain of evidence vs. what homers want to believe.

Think about it.

I withdrew my financial support (Booster and Season Ticket Holder) and wrote a letter to the board of trustees.
I have posted here throughout the season, trying to help more casual fans understand that the evidence against Jimbo as OC is damning....
And if you go back and look at my assessments from day-1 and compare them to either Cuths or yours... you will see not all judgement is created equal.
I have never stated I think Jimbo should be fired. I stated I think he should be FORCED to bring in an OC... and that we would be heading nowhere until he did.

You withdrew your booster contributions and cancelled your season tickets after a 12 win season in which we won the conference and a BCS bowl?
Then, I suppose a "good riddance" is in order.
As Jimbo said, I am happy, but not satisfied. Some people can never be either.

"FSU fans complain too much"
