Jeff Bowden........offensive guru and the under appreciated years?
I was reading that "other" site during the game yesterday and found a posting about how much better (statistically) little Jeffrey's offenses were than CJF's. Obviously, as with most of their posters, this person didn't know what the hell they were talking about. Who knows, maybe it was Jeff, Anne, and Bobby that started the thread.
So, that got me to thinking, what are yalls' most forgettable......errr, most fond........memories during Jeff's reign as offensive Forrest Gump..........errr, mastermind?
I would leave a memory but I have completely purged them all from mind.
These should be great!
WR problems.....
Since we've had some issues this year w/ our WR play (drops, routes, etc), why hasn't gehres been given more of a chance? Obviously I'm not very close to the program, so I figured I would get the opinion of those that are. I hear he doesn't drop anything and runs great routes. Is he too slow to get any meaningful time? Seems like we could use his hands since some of our receivers have had a hard time holding onto the ball. Thanks!
Trickett and Jimbo....different philosophies?
I've read a lot that both of these coaches have different styles: trickett's zone vs. jimbo's love for big linemen w/ big RBs. My question, if this were true why did jimbo retain trickett if his style conflicts w/ the one jimbo wants to establish? I don't know enough about OL to come to a conclusion, so I'd like to get the opinion of those in the "know". It's obvious that our line play has improved, but every time we meet a big time D, we aren't very good......i.e. against UF last yr. Will Jimbo look to replace trickett or will he force trickett to adapt?
Thanks!
ok, i was given a warning for putting this on fanpost. guess links go to fanshots. how was i to know?
anyways, this is funny as hell. i'm sure some of you have seen this, but i just found it. i mean, for so long i was under the assumption UF was the Harvard of the south; only graduating the best and the brightest. well, i was wrong. i could only hope FSU does not have any public figure representing our university w/ such disregard for the appropriate usage of the english language. yeah, harvard of the south, my ass.
FSU, your experiences.....MY experiences!
alright, guys......and girls, i started at FSU jan, 2002. i was a transfer from UCF. for some reason i thought staying close to home after high school would be a good idea. well, after a year there i realized how much it blew....COMPLETELY. i mean, my apt got broken into twice, there was no on campus f ball stadium, the on campus gym was terrible, and the students smelled of gouda cheese. so, i decided to transfer to florida southern.
ok, guys, i have to admit. i grew up a gator fan (my uncle went there or something....banish me if you will). well, my buddy, out of HS (lake region), went to FSU and was always trying to lobby for me to come there. ok, i decided to humble him and go up 2001, ga tech game. needless to say, after the game I WAS HOOKED. the passion, the camaraderie, the noise, the intensity. after that i knew i could never, EVER root for another college team, EVER. I had done the impossible, completely, w/out hesitation, CONVERTED.
i came home and told my family i was no longer gonna go to florida southern, i was transferring to FSU. mind you i was already enrolled at FSC (classes started the next day), had all the fin aid and whanot. ok, my family was PISSED (not because it was FSU, but because they took a sh*t load of money out to finance my education).
somehow i contacted the FSC fin aid dept and they refunded my family's money. THANK GOD (it was LOTS of $$$$$$). and i applied to FSU. my UCF gpa was really good, so i got into FSU w/out problem.
i transferred there and have become what i am now: a loud, proud proponent of my alma mater. i love FSU w/ everything i have. i know, it may sound cliche, but those that have not experienced what i have may not have the appreciation of FSU that those who have struggled to get here have.
when i arrived at FSU i thought i may get lost in the large classes. that was far from the truth.
FSU allowed me to cultivate the creative passion i have now. it allowed me to develop an interest in medicine. FSU helped make me the person i am.
I'm currently at Duke, pursuing a graduate degree in nursing (acute care/adult nurse pracititioner). I'd like you to know that there are two other proud FSU grads in my program (and many, many others throughout the school). WE are not local, WE ARE NATIONAL. WE ARE PROUD. WE ARE LOUD. WE ARE BRILLIANT. WE ARE PASSIONATE. WE ARE 'NOLES.
I have never been more proud to be a NOLE. i have worked in florida, california, washington, north carolina and have always worn my colors proud, but this feels different. i feel like there's something special going on.....maybe a sleeping giant is waking up. we have relentless recruiters ( j. coley and j fisher), and we have the potential of landing a RIDICULOUSLY talented president in mr. eric barron. Now is time to show your support for our university. Donate WHATEVER you can. Speak to WHOMEVER you can. Represent in ANYWAY you can. This is OUR time.
I'd like you all to respond in showing how you migrated to FSU.
