The chairman of the Florida State University trustees wants Bobby Bowden to retire at the end of this season. Jim Smith said Monday the arrangement with Bowden as head coach and his successor, Jimbo Fisher, as offensive coordinator isn't working.


"We've got too many bosses out there," Smith said.
"Jimbo is in a very, very tough situation where people assume he has a whole lot more authority than he really has," Smith told the Associated Press. "He's getting blamed for a lot of things that's just not his fault."
The Seminoles (2-3, 0-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) are off to their worst start since Bowden's first year at Florida State in 1976.
Bowden said Sunday that he has no plans of quitting anytime soon. His 384 wins are three fewer than Penn State coach Joe Paterno, the career leader in victories among major college coaches. Bowden turns 80 in just over a month, and has a contract that gives him the option to return in 2010.
And while the school's trustees don't have immediate authority over coaches, they have significant influence since they are in effect the boss of university president T.K. Wetherell, who makes such hiring and firing decisions.
"Everything is kind of up in the air," Smith said Monday. "T.K. really has to make that call. I think he's at a point where he's going to deal with it."

They need to blow up that coaching staff, and get Chris Peterson from Boise St.

Fla St. is regressing into a joke of a football team.

As a Gator fan, I hope Blobby and Jimbo stay married to the hip forever in Tally
