FSU FOOTBALL GREAT
Florida State football last won a national championship during the 2013 season, where they defeated the Auburn Tigers in a come-from-behind 34-31 victory in the Rose Bowl. This was something that the Seminole faithful would never forget about.
That squad was legendary, as many players on the offensive and defensive starting lineups were drafted in the NFL. That speaks volumes, even though individuals think the 2001 Miami Hurricanes team should be higher.
WINSTON TO THE GIANTS
Nonetheless, the 2013 squad had a quarterback like Hueytown's Jameis Winston, who won the Heisman Trophy in his redshirt freshman season. To make matters even more impressive is that backup Jacob Coker went to the Alabama Crimson Tide and won a national championship the following year.

Winston has been a polarizing figure within the landscape of college football and the NFL. He is currently on the New York Giants' roster, but the organization made some puzzling moves as they also added veteran free agent Russell Wilson and rookie Jaxson Dart at the quarterback position.
Winston has played well at times in the preseason, where he had production throws like this when the organization played the New York Jets.
Am I crazy to think Jameis Winston could start on at least 3 other teams?
Feel like heβs a strong candidate to be traded pic.twitter.com/5xYmtPMQ5G

This isn't Winston's first rodeo, as he has had 24,255 passing yards with 154 touchdowns and 111 interceptions. However, it seems like nothing good happens to the former Florida State player, with how his career has been a whirlwind.
I was kind of surprised that the rumors of Jameis Winston possibly being traded make sense, but I hate that they put the former quarterback under a microscope in a negative fashion.
