When Did Jimbo Become A Genius?

As noted by Sunday Morning Quarterback, the consensus out there is that former LSU offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher is about to save Florida State’s bacon.

Chalk me up as a skeptic on this subject.

Fisher was the offensive coordinator at LSU from 2000-2006. During that span, the Tigers managed to surpass the 30 points per game barrier for a season just three times. In other words, it’s not like he was tearing things up in Baton Rouge.

Does anyone even know what kind of offense Fisher runs? I guess it’s a pro-style attack, but what’s so special about that?

As it stands, I imagine that Fisher will bring some semblance of stability and maturity to the Seminole offense. So there should be some improvement.

But I don’t think his hiring is the answer to the question: What can Bobby Bowden do to salvage his last few seasons at FSU?
