Jimbo Fisher: FSU Should Consider Big 12

With the ACC in shambles and the Big 12 less in shambles, FSU’s interest in the Big 12 is apparently a thing. It’s become more of a thing with the news that head coach Jimbo Fisher thinks the Seminoles should look at the conference that used to have 12 schools.

“There have been no official talks, but I think you always have to look out there to see what’s best for Florida State,” Fisher told the Orlando Sentinel. “If that [jumping to the Big 12] is what’s best for Florida State, then that’s what we need to do.”

As head coach, Fisher probably has some say. This whole “Florida State being in the ACC” thing might not be too long for the future, considering the fact that Fisher, the FSU Board of Trustees, and also, apparently, the Big 12 think the Seminoles being in the Big 12 might be a good idea.
