If this is true, Jimbo should be fired immediately!

I for one am glad that Jimbo drew a line in the sand. He's focused on the important things

Taking one of our best performing players out for arm sleeves? What the hell is Jimbo doing man, this is beyond crazy.

Need full story. Was something written on the arm sleeves?

Whether or not this is the full story, the fact that he went on twitter and said this means Moose is heading to the portal at the end of the season.

Hey. In his Twitter profile pic, he's wearing a sleeve. Is the rule that he can't wear 2 sleeves?

. I have a feeling he is going to have a LOT of company in the portal. Jimbo has not only lost this team, he has failed them and no longer deserves their trust

This is bad news. Jimbo needs to go.

I would imagine it's not the arm sleeves but maybe something written on sleeves

Wonder if it might have been an NIL sponsor's logo or something of that nature.

Curiouser and curiouser.

apparently a rule just for skill positions. But I'm still confused, why are arm sleeves a big deal either way?

I think the best thing Moose can at this point for his livelihood is enter the transfer portal. Jimbo has shown his cards as far as being completely tone deaf when it comes to understanding his teams and what it takes to win.

I hope there is an arm sleeve clause in Jimbo's contract so we can now fire him with cause and save $85 million.

He couldn't just be told to take them off?

How do arm sleeves compare with all of the things Famous Jameis did at FSU? Seems like jimbo's concerns are all over the place.

Arm sleeves may have started the conversation, but that can't be why he was benched. Moose had to run his mouth after the initial talk.

Per 247 here is the original version of the tweet. My guess is he was told to take them off and said no. Seems like a stupid rule to me. Is there any legit reason a coach wouldn't want skill players to wear them? Do they reduce grip on the ball and make it easier to fumble? I've seen lots of other WR and RB wearing them.

"Wanted to clear the air and state that I was benched through the entirety of tonight's game due to wearing arm accessories (sleeves), which I've head tons of success wearing throughout the course of football career….I apologize to my teammates & fans who may view my decision as selfish or of any negative nature, however I've been playing this game for a majority of my life and have a strong understanding of what's best for myself in the field of play!

They come off very easily. Not the whole story.

What a stupid stand for Jimbo to take. Did Moose hurt the team by wearing arm sleeves? Or did Jimbo hurt the team by benching his best player for letting something trivial escalate into something worse? I had overzealous coaches that wouldn't let me wear gloves while receiving. Now every player wears them. This is a coach that has lost all confidence and is now overcompensating by trying to come as the "disciplinarian".

Worth reminding that Fisher (beyond his ludicrous contract) receives huge dollars for wearing certain brands himself.

Based on Moose's statement, I also think he is leaving the program.

Just 1 more thing Jimbo hasn't caught up to the times about. The days of crapping on your players and have no consequences are over. You will be called out, and they will transfer.

If this is true Jimbo needs to be fired because it would mean Jimbo was willing to lose a game, and the last opportunity to potentially still make a bowl game, which gives our young team the opportunity to attain 15 more practices, plus our seniors one more opportunity to put at least one decent game on tape for scouts, all for sleeves that don't have any impact on anything.
These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.-Thomas Paine
