HELPING PLAYERS MATURE AND SEE THE BIG PICTURE

According to Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher, there are seven people who are the most talked about, most recognized people in the state of Florida: the head coaches at Florida State, Florida and Miami, and the quarterbacks at Florida State, Florida and Miami.

And, of course, the governor.

“Those seven people,” Fisher said he tells his first-year starting quarterbacks, “that’s how you’re measured.  You have to put into perspective how people are going to listen to you, see you.  People are going to see you, know you, listen to everything you say, everything you do.  So understand something: Nothing’s off the record, and there’s no time somebody’s not watching you.” 

He’s right.
