As a Florida Gator blogger who lives in Tallahassee, the purveyor of Alligator Army is taking a certain delight in watching the Florida State kingdom crumble:
Alligator Army: The Florida State Coup D’etats
The coup that Smith is trying to pull off will be epic in scope and probably finish with drunk frat boys pulling down Bowden’s statue and the ACC having to send in representatives to establish a green zone around FSU’s athletic facilities. Putting Fisher into power will not solve FSU’s problems because this one trustee will have ultimate power. Also, Fisher sucks too. The problem with FSU is the same problem Notre Dame and Nebraska have had recently. They think since they have a history of success, they are owed success. Florida thought this too and hired Ron Zook. It took hiring outside the family and cleaning up the program for Urban Meyer to be successful. FSU appointing Fisher will just be a new puppet to attach to the strings. After he fails, there will be another coup and we will laugh, imagining FSU as a third-world country run by people who always think they are right, even in the face of another loss to an in-state rival.
