In 2010
Jimbo Fisher took an FSU team that had gone 7-6 three times the last four
years, and got them to 10-4 and ranked 16th in the final rankings, his
greatest help in doing so was by hiring an elite defensive coordinator (Mark
Stoops) to shore up a terrible defense. Sound familiar? This time he's doing
it in a much much tougher division, and with perhaps some more roster issues,
but I expect a transformation nonetheless. TAMU direly needs new skill
position players to emerge, but Nick Starkel has the potential to transform
the offense into a top-25ish unit; and Mike Elko will quickly improve a
defense with several unheralded defensive talents (Dodson, Aalaka, Durham,
Myles Jones, Charles Oliver) that were unable to turn into a cohesive
defensive unit under Chavis. |
