From Bobby: It is a consensus among FSU fans and boosters that Jameis Winston was an embarrassment to the University. He has time to recover from the junior high behavior he exhibited in college.
Bobby Bowden to Paul Finebaum......

Sounds a lot different when you actually read and hear the whole conversation. Can't blame runnyrear though....He can only process so much in that tiny noggin.
I'm too lazy to provide a link to the full convo that has come out so google it yourself. Can't say I really disagree with Bobby. Those things were not the points that I defended Winston on. Leave it to Finebaum to get his SEC 60 year old virgins rear in the news.
Bowden: (laughing) Well, I think it's a consensus among Florid State fans, and boosters that he was an embarrassment in a lot of waysto the university (emphasis mine). He won a lot of ball games, probably one of the best football players that ever attended Florida State, but he hurt himself off the field. The good news is that he's young enough to get over that, ya know it, and he's gotta do that. He just can't make those junior high school decisions that he made while he was in college.

Ummm nope. Thanks for trying though. I've defended Winston when people like yourself get on here and make non factual claims about rape or point shaving or my favorite......Winston signing autograph scandal. The rest of the crap he did was stupid. I might have laughed about it, because people like you get so worked up about it.
And that's the truth.
I work with JR High kids and they have more since then Winston. So he would have been OSS by week 3 if he was in our school. Big waste of Talent. I put on here "the Kentucky Derby Rule" and Winston is a prime candidate. Great read if you missed it. By a Football Coach
Well I'm surely not losing sleep over you not remembering my posts. And I am certain I won't lose a wink of sleep over your opinion of Winston on a Missouri board.
This is a perfect example of how the media works now. ESPN and every other news network runs with a half****** dissected quote to portray a more stern stance than what was actually taken. The conversation in full was not nearly as cut and dry as you would hope and anybody who can actually use critical thinking would come to the conclusion that Bobby supports Winston.
BB Gun fight was amateur hour as was the standing on the table. Neither of those would have made headlines if it was a 3rd string QB. He was obviously under the spot light and for whatever reason(immaturity) he couldn't fully understand that. But you guys/gals were so fired up over him using the FHITP Meme it was hilarious. Like he just robbed your mama at gun point. Was it stupid absolutely, was it murder? I do not believe so. And the fact he did sit out a game for that is a lot harsher punishment than most universities would lay down(if they would do anything at all). Crab Legs incident, I believe his story. I have no doubt in my mind they were a "gift" to him. These type of things happened at CMSU much less a major college town like Tally. But I would agree he was an idiot for not laying low. He already had enough problems with the "alleged rape".
The rape case has been discussed at length. If it ever came out he raped that girl, then absolutely the dude is a piece of trash. But if all he is guilty of is the above(bb gun fight, crab legs and yelling a vulgar term), that is pretty tame.
There was a two page thread over him signing autographs, on here, and what happened with those allegations? Nothing. Because it was another ESPN hack piece. Another BS attempt stirring up a story.
I've done my fair share of things that would make the things he's guilty of, look minor in comparison. And I am certain the rest of you fellas were saints.
