No doubt and this is an open advertisement. Thrasher (FSU's President) should have left the direct line for the new Chancellor's Office.

That said, this Thrasher guy (who is retiring) is scapegoating FSU's struggles which happened on his watch. The Noles' demise these last five years (and I said this about 37 pages back) has nothing to do (or at least very little) with money. This was a power struggle, one that wore everyone involved out, including Jimbo, who took a better offer to escape the disfunction (yes, Jimbo was also getting divorced).

If FSU can clean up its back of house, there is no reason to believe that they won't win again. They might not (perhaps likely don't) have the right head coach for that, but all they need to do is overcome Clemson.

But fixing those semi-major issues is NOTHING compared to having to best Bama, Auburn, Georgia, Florida, etc. in the SEC. Or even Ohio State, Penn State and Wisconsin in the Big 10. Choose wisely, FSU. Don't fall for the quick high you'd get, the ego trip. It would not be worth it in the long run.

([B]Sidenote:[/B] If FSU ever hit the escape hatch and took a B1G invite, they would be ridiculed/defamed/shamed in Southern Football circles here and forever more. It would be remarkably counterproductive, no matter the size of the checks they'd receive)
