Recycled Nole players and coaches making West Georgia the new FSU-North

When Terry Bowden brought his brother Jeff and several ex-Nole players to North Alabama, people called it FSU North.

Now there's another school vying for the title. The University of West Georgia recently hired Jody Allen -- the same recently fired Jody Allen -- to be the new defensive coordinator and linebackers coach. Make that CO-defensive coordinator, as Allen will share the title with James Colzie, former FSU DB from the Dynasty years.

Looks like Allen will outrank Colzie, though, as he wangled the extra title of Associate Head Coach.

Robinson the latest former Nole. Add another familiar name to the growing list at UWG. On Thursday Dominic Robinson was announced as the team's wide receivers coach. Robinson had 42 catches and two TDs during his FSU career (2001-04). Seminole fans will remember D-Rob most for his clutch catch that set up the winning TD throw that beat the gators in 2003.

And the head coach doing all the hiring? Daryl Dickey, the much maligned former FSU QB Coach from 2001 thru 2006. Under Dickey, who's also the school's A.D., West Georgia has won one game during the past two seasons.

So glad Allen is gone. Anybody ever find out if the rumors about his wife and the players was true? It makes sense that they wouldn't play for the guy since they had no respect for him.

If college football has a hell, this is it. These coaches do for college athletes what the Mangler did for folding laundry.
