I've heard that too... makes you wonder what the hell is going on.

they're good. they have a good rep, part of a winning team....of course not all assistants make a good head coach. but you have to get them from somewhere.
hate to see them leave, but the AD in lsu is good--top notch. all of their sports do well, he's largely responsible for that.

i have it on VERY good info that neither fisher or pellini like les miles. pellini was looking for a HC job before fisher. fisher and pellini got along really well and i would look for them to coach together in the future if possible.

That salary figure for Fisher seems WAY low....I read somewhere else he had a 450,000 package at LSU....Why would he go to FSU for HALF what he was making before??

i think his bonuses made it over $400k. it's the same in this contract from what i understand. the sticking point may have been something about the HC job when bowden retires OR length of stay and out claus if he'd be offered a HC job someplace else.

My respect for Miles realy went down , when he anounce the penalty for the curfue violation would be maybe 1 quarter. Sure was covering his arse. Basicaly saying we have rules, maybe. Either penalize them of just shut up. Maybe a quarter is a joke.

Fisher doesn't like Saban either.

I don't like Fisher, so adios to him.

you might be sorry CJF is gone, after miles brings in his own people.
OC change might be good though, with J Russell headed to the nfl.
