I’ll be honest. I’ve hit that wall that I hit every year. I’ve hit the wall to the point that I don’t have very many coherent thoughts regarding anything FSU. I’ve also hit the wall with photography at the games. It’s really, really nice to just go and watch the game instead of watching it [...]

Without further ado, here is the result of the February 2010 Fan Confidence Scalpoll on our newest JIMBOTRON!!!!!

Jimbo Fisher and the FSU Football Team are experiencing a wash of LOVE from Seminole fans everywhere, after having a very successful February. Not only did Fisher and his crew sign a highly ranked recruiting class, they also [...]

First, let me preface this rant with a disclaimer. I have had some awful experiences with Seminole Boosters over the years. My trust for the organization is not high, because on a couple of different occasions money that was earmarked for an individual sport club ended up in the football account. Phone calls supposedly straightened [...]

ESPN reporter Heather Dinich has a nice article up today regarding all of the changes Jimbo Fisher is making to the FSU Football program.
“It’s a lot different,” said quarterback Christian Ponder. “And it’s a lot different in the sense of it being better.”
Check out her full article for an interview with Ponder and a few more [...]

I thought it was time to look at some of the more interesting stuff going on in the world of FSU outside of ScalpEm.com.

Mascots retire, but stay active – San Bernardino, CA paper, The Sun, has an article today about a retiree that was the former Sammy Seminole. For those of you that don’t know [...]

If there’s one thing that I know about FSU Football heading into the 2010, it’s that they have a leader in Jimbo Fisher. Sure, that seems pretty obvious considering he’s the head coach, but just because someone is in charge doesn’t mean that person is a good leader. I also have absolutely no personal knowledge [...]

I went back to the pulse of the internet last night tried my best to gauge the mood of Seminole fans yesterday during the peaks and valleys of National Signing Day. Above is my chart, which evidently indicates that while things appeared to be stable most of the day, the whims of young men can [...]

How to use ScalpEm.com on National Signing Day

Check Tomahawk Nation (best recruiting coverage) and Seminoles.com (official site).
If it’s too “loud” at TN for you, come back here and comment with our writers.

Seriously, I’ll update as the day progresses and I’m sure there will be some chatter in here for the ScalpEm.com writers, but I’m not [...]

Some people thought the economy was the sole reason to blame for the downturn in Booster donations.
They were wrong. Andrew Carter at the Orlando Sentinel is all over it, as usual.
Another thing to note: renewal of booster membership is up 90 percent compared to where it was a year ago at this point. Further, Seminole [...]

There’s a reason I’ve been asking you guys to vote in the latest Scalpoll. With the new FSU Football administration, I have a new gauge here on ScalpEm.com, the Jimbotron Confidence Meter. Jimbotron was inspired by a few things. First, I just think Jimbotron is a fun name. JIM BO TRON. Say it with me. [...]
