OT: Jimbo Fisher bans players from going to bars
In an attempt to put out the dumpster fire that is the FSU program, Jimbo has prohibited all members of the football team from going to bars.

I could completely understand banning all players under 21, but that seems unfair to stop the legal age students. Good for Fisher for trying to change the culture, but he still looks like a joke. Instead of admitting that he needs to recruit higher integrity players, he comes up with this. None of Winston's antics involved bars...
EDIT: Winston's alleged rape saga started out at a bar. Jimbo must be right...it's all the bar's fault. No accountability needed to be had by him
You are absolutely right. My mistake. +1
That is all.
You know, I can't help but wonder what would happen if perhaps Jimbo and FSU's staff maybe tried something novel like, oh, developing character and finding means to discourage such behavior, not to mention revolutionary cultural changes like caring about people. They could always give it a try - you won't help everyone, but you'd help quite a few. Saying something like, "No more bars" in this case is a lot like telling your players, "I do NOT want to see ANYONE with a thermonuclear warhead on school property. The AD made that very clear the last time someone lit up."

They'll just switch to watching other people play Minecraft on Yogscast ...
Players are going to go to the bars. This is a PR move so it looks like Jimbo is Doing Serious Things
because the nature of the news cycle is stuff is BIG NEWS for a hot second before it's passed for something else. No one will be talking about this in a week as long as FSU players stop punching women in the face. Jimbo can pound his fists now and say "No bars for you!" and everyone will say "ah, good" then come fall when everyone's back in class no one will remember or care about Jimbo's declaration (including Jimbo) and everyone's back in the bars again
the one in the middle might be my great Aunt Norma . . . the dame on the right is kinda hot.
is not fair
That really sucks for all the players who aren't complete idiots.
Not sure they have those kinds of players in Tallahassee
Have to credit him for trying, but until he proves otherwise, this is more a PR move than anything.

All FSU dorm rooms will have at lest 4 shelves, for books and stuff....
Now he just needs to ban them from hitting other men and women, shoplifting, sexually assaulting others, and basically being idiots. That's been their problem; they weren't told not to do those things explicitly.
He's only making this rule in the hopes that all women punching can be done in a private setting. More he said she said kind of thing.
since his wife was schtupping her personal trainer. (I use that term loosely, and so did she.)

where these guys are going to be able to hang out.
What are you talking about Winston's antics didn't have anything to do with bars?
Didn't he pick the chick up from a bar, they both were drunk and he took her back home? Not sure, but I feel like both sides have agreed to that much.
Good catch. It was originally reported that it was Winston's roommate that left with her, but after a quick google it looks like Jameis admitted to being at the bar at the FSU hearing. I'll edit OP.
Banning guitars?
. . . Elevators !
Next he's going to ban getting up on tables and yelling out song lyrics.
