💬 I can see why Auburn thought Jimbo Fisher would be a good fit for their HC now

Didn't win their conference, didn't make it to the playoffs, had a horrible loss to a three win Ga Tech team, and yet?

Doesn't make a lot of sense in that they have recently won a NC and two ACC championships. I would think it's more about a recruiting ploy, but they've been wearing out the other Florida teams there also.

State champs, that's special.

One would hope it's about recruiting. But let's be honest, do players go to FSU to win the state championship?

The NCAA allows a school to spend money for championship rings (with limits). I don't think they meant a mythical championship.

I remember when my high school football team won a state championship. It was sweet.

Talked with a friend of mine who's brother played at F$U, Peter Tom Willis back in the 80's. He said that this was something that has been done for years. I still said that it was feasible for Central Florida to do it but not a team with Natty's!

The "State Championship" is a mythical championship...

Ehh, the players will sell them for a thousand or two and have a pocket of cash to get something with.

Some went for free crab legs.

Read your post wrong.

That shipped sailed back in 2004 only to be outdone after the BCS in '11 with rings for being #2.
