Wetherell says Bowden's job is safe for now---Black Out Game For Saturday! (Edited 10/09/09 11:45PM by JRSFLAME88)

It's hard living so close to Seminole Country! This announcement just interrupted our regularly scheduled programming:

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Florida State University President T.K.
Wetherell says coach Bobby Bowden's job is safe for now.
In a news release Wednesday, Wetherell said the coaching
situation will be re-evaluated at the end of the season. Wetherell
also said offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher will be the next head
coach when Bowden leaves, and school officials will start working
with Fisher on an agreement to that end.
Bowden's future at the school came under intense scrutiny this
week when the chairman of the university's trustees, Jim Smith,
said the aging coach who once made the Seminoles a national
powerhouse should leave after this season.
Fans and alumni have grown disgruntled with a program in decline
for years.

Bowden's 384 wins are second all-time only to Penn State's Joe
Paterno among major college coaches.

The FSU Fans who think Bowden should step down will be wearing black while attending the FSU/GA TECH Game on Saturday. Should be interesting to see how much Black will be in the stands!

#1 \| 49 days ago gobigblue1960 (+)	(Edited by gobigblue1960) FSU will never ask Bobby Bowdon to leave, and as long as he is there, Florida, and Miami, coached by far younger men, will destroy the Seminoles in recruting, and on the field in the coming years. F.S.U. will keep Bowden After This Season

They don't know how to end this in a positive way. Why hire Amato back, I'll never figure out. So many errors. At least when Florida and Miami realized they had to change coaches, they did so, successfully. Urban had faster success as he had more talent to work with, Shannon needed more time to bring in his players and coaches. We are 11 and Florida is 1, the Seminoles are 2-3.

We are not the Noles, you will see a different team that night. The plans right now are to take the trip down I-4.
