Jameis Winston saga (merged)

“It is credit that he deserves,” Fisher said. “Because he can put things away like a man does, compartmentalize things, take care of his teammates, take care of his family and take care of everyone because he’s very mature.

He sounds almost "Tebowesque", huh? What a fine upstanding young man, a wonderful example of intercollegiate athletics, and you guys take every little opportunity to take shots at him. Shame on all of you...

I cannot believe this chump is going to put me in a position of pulling for ND...I just can't believe it.

This.

Just think of what they would uncover in Gainesville during Meyer time.

Scary to just think about.

SN the two fsu players who were present during the alleged rape had their Student Review hearing and were giving a pass by committee. Only Casher received probation. I don't expect anything but probation for Winston ad well.

Title IX may impose some sanctions but nothing will come from these Student Conduct Reviews.

They are bringing in an outside judge to hear his student conduct case, to avoid the appearance of impropriety.

Just for Winston?

Step in the right direction.

I'd guess Fisher is elated that his biggest issue is nearly done with his college career. I'm sure he enjoys the success Winston has brought him , but I'd bet he'll be glad to see him go to the draft. Not too much different than Sumlin/Manziel.

We could not have withstood another offseason with JMAN2.

What year did he graduate from FSU?

Jimbo Fisher defends Jameis Winston, says 'there was no crime' - Orlando Sentinel

Its amazing to me that he still doesn't get it. Massive denial about what the real story is -- this is no longer about the fact of a crime or non-crime on thaty specif day.

It is now about the utter lack of integrity that the university showed in actively interfering with the investigation that is the real news here.

He is not coming to grips with the fact that people have long suspected that most universities with big time football program do things to protect the players, and this time FSU has been caught in repeated acts of doing that with very serious allegations over what became their marquise player.

That's the news.

I think the whole thing is a mess, and Jimbo is an idiot with a stupid name. But whats else is he supposed to say?
If he had an ball$ he wouldve sat Winston down awhile ago.

Three hearing officers will be listed. Winston can strike one, the accuser can strike one.

I would be surprised if these weren't people very far away.

You have to think they have to act on it soon. If Fisher continues to defend him it will make it look like more of a conspiracy then it already looks like

 

[TXA&M07]

They know they're on the clock if they really want to nail this kid. They have to strike quickly before he goes pro. It seems like they are dedicated to that now.

Where there's smoke there is usually fire....this kid might go down as one of the dumbest players in college football history....FSU is looking more and more like a joke by not punishing this kid in any way. A half of football really isn't much. I think Jimbo knows without JW they'll be no playoff

Judges typically graduate somewhere other than FSU.

 

[The Ron Mexico]

Fisher's livelihood depends on Winston playing. FSU can't compete in the playoff without Winston.

non issue -- yawn

 

[Sin City Vol]

Jimbo doesn't believe Winston took money...I mean why would a guy who "allegedly" raped a woman, stole crab legs, avoiding questions from the police ever lie about taking money for 350 autographs....Winston is a model citizen and a true ambassador for FSU. Get him a statue right beside Bobby B

Clown judges go there

 

[LakeMaryFLVol]

Saying 340 certified autographs showed up on same site that GA RB was on

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

If I'm a talent that is probably going in the first rounds no matter what, and I'm in my last year of college...I know where i'm going to make some scratch.

 

[allvol123]

Least of his transgressions. Also, ESPN is such a hollow useless organization.

 

[lawgator1]

Also being reported that the betting line for FSU - ND game has been suspended ....

Yeah but this is the bunch that can't shoot straight when it comes to suspending this guy.. But usually when Vegas does this they know something and would take into account that FSU reluctant to suspend

 

[Crew]

Let him play against ND tho.

 

[volinbham]

It's clear Winston didn't get paid for this - why else would he be forced to jack those delicious crab legs?

 

[BurninOrange]

non issue -- yawn

I dont think so. Same person with the Gurley incident. I think Winston goes down on this one. Imo
