Mickey Andrews

I think everybody would be okay with it.

If I'm the head coach, the next head coach, or the next AD, actually, my first order of business, other than Mickey Andrews' way, is I'm going back to the old logo.

I'm going to ingratiate myself immediately with the fan base.

Do it, Jake Dicker.

everybody's got to have their boys that are doing the dirty work.

Mickey Andrews was, you know, Bobby was like the saint on your shoulder.

And Mickey Andrews was like the complete opposite when you talk to some of his former players.

All good teams have that.

It's okay.

I spent a good 45 minutes to an hour sewing the crotch back together of zach piller's sweaty corduroy bitches and uh top of it all and i don't know maybe your son's he's a young swimmer but do you know about the shaving and tapering these swimmers do you know how they taper and shade for the big meat okay so at this point i had been dating tina hinton at the time tina bates now i've been dating her and been around all of her swimmer friends for four plus years because i was red shirted and I'm like well this is my big meet this is my big one and I want to feel really fast so I shaved my whole body respect to the swimmers and man look no drag now I'm gonna be super fast broke out in hives during the game had a concussion at the end of the first half I still managed to make my way down to Bourbon Street and celebrate but it was a kind of a crazy second half with all these like lumps all over my skin and I didn't feel that much faster and shaky and everything man but you know what we won it Will we did it

yeah absolutely and that loss to Florida State you know in the regular season they mugged Danny Warfel in that game and that's where I think the quote from Mickey Andrews where basically we played the echo of the whistle that controversy came from you know no love to Mickey Andrews you know for instructing his players to hit our quarterback well after the whistle I don't know about echo of the whistle I don't know if that's even a thing that seems like assault in my opinion you But you guys got your revenge and you were able to hoist it.

And another point of credit to you for being a team leader and a team captain.

I didn't know you were also the team seamstress.

I feel like there's usually a moment where you feel like, "Oh, okay, this could really happen." Like I-- In 2009, I did not think they were gonna force out Bobby Bowden.

Um, but then that Maryland game happened, and the crowd, there was nobody at that game, and it was Mickey Andrews' last game, and they kinda built it up as Mickey An- Andrews' last home game as a way to kind of, I think, get people to come to the game, and there was nobody at the game.

They wore those awful uniforms-

Pro Combats

That's the second most rushing yards given up in program history.

Again, I'm not trying to be the old guy and the glory days guy, but I'm pretty sure if you can look up any defense of the Mickey Andrews peak era, it would have taken a team halfway through the season to get to 400 yards of rushing allowed halfway through the year.

like just weeks upon weeks upon weeks.

And I know that, look, they gave up 20 yards last week against Virginia.

But they didn't really fear him.

But I can promise you that, the, the, p- people feared Mickey Andrews.

Every defender knew Mickey loved him, but they also feared him.

I can tell you that people feared Chuck Amato on that staff.

So, you know, I think Manny...

And the other thing, the benefit th- of getting a Manny Diaz, and again, the problem there is you're having to pay the buyout, you're having to bid-- You're gonna have to pay a bunch to get Manny Diaz.

The benefit of Manny Diaz is he is a Mickey Andrews guy, and he knows what it's like to be at Florida State, and he has some fon- fond, uh, memories of being at Florida State.

And in terms of running things along the culture of Florida State, it's not the worst idea.

So was Harlan Barnett's.

So was the legendary Mickey Andrews at the very end.

That was not a 3-3-5.

That was just an old-school
