Rob's Addition to the FSU Post
Rob's addition to the Initial FSU Post:
For me, the seminole memories are more of a feeling than anything else. That is because during our growing up years the seminoles went from being literally a circus act (which other college football program ever had a circus to attract fans) to being one of the best football programs in the history of NCAA football. Because of the seminoles' rise, there was and still is a feeling that anything in life is possible and can be achieved with all-out effort. Sure, the noles had the Charlie Ward and Warrick Dunn years, but who can forget clutch QB's like Casey Weldon, Danny Kannel, and Thad Busby. Their individual effort was incredible. There were close games where the seminoles were down in the 4th quarter and there was just no need to worry. We all knew that the seminoles would play way above their heads and never choke. Also, who can forget the Jamal Reynolds/Andre Wadsworth quarterback meetings. They took out quarterbacks and shut down high powered offenses game after game. When will there ever again be 2 All-American d-ends on the same team at the same time? There are too many players to list on FSU's defense during the late '80's to late '90's that single-handedly impacted games with turnovers, hard hits, incredible speed and tackling, and just all-out effort. These guys played with heart and probably made coaching really easy. I don't remember anything that looked like it needed more practice back then, except the kicking game only at the wrong times. I am headed to Jared's to watch the noles and try to bring back some of that feeling. Robby
