This is a shame. PTW was an asset to the FSU program as a player and as an analyst. He got fired for saying what every true Noles fan already knows - our program HAS slipped, and we need to get tougher mentally and physically to get back to our rightful place as one of the very best teams in the nation. Good luck PTW.

Oh yeah... That makes alot of sense... An alumnus... Who is looking out for the benefit of your program... Gives you critcism... And you fire him... Enjoy another few years in the middle FSU... You deserve it

Hey what's the problem? FSU hired him to say what they wanted him to say. So he tells the truth and gets fired. Gotta make FSU feel pretty good about themselves.

Sounds like dealing with Government, they don't like what you have to say, you are muzzled and given the boot! Truth will set you free? In this case it just gets you fired, and fast!

I guess he was keeping the offense from scoring...

the coaches and the players fail to perform, and so they fire the analyst who was forced to watch and try to find good things to say ... a great move, FSU ...

PTW was never negative to the school, he was honest. Wouldn't someone want to hear the truth from a loved one over someone who has no idea what is going on? He is that loved one.

I am not an FSU fan, but I saw them play a little this year.

What I saw I think PTW could have run the offense better now than the QB's they had this season.

I agree this isn't a good move for FSU.

Wow, that reminds me of our current federal government. Are Bush and Cheney consultants to the network?

I guess that they felt he "crossed the line"...something FSU's offense hasn't been able to do in years.

nice sample to be set by an institution of alleged higher learning

being fired for being honest? wow, that's sad

Lake Michigan still stinks from the way he played with the Bears!

Besides, Peter is a funny name and anytime you use all three names together, it usually means there's a dead prostitute somewhere out there!

Ridiculous! Peter Tom called it like it was (and it was garbage)...Are they going to make me turn in my memorabilia because I think they have slipped too!

This is outrageous!!! P.T. deserves better than this. Getting fired for telling the truth is crazy. Email me a seminolessavept@aol.com to sign a petition to get him his job back. Go Noles!

Wow, he gets fired for commenting on a 7-6 season, now how about firing the guy that brought the 7-6 season to be fair....

What a joke! What a joke!

I wouldn't expect anything else from a team of over confident cheating pricks!!

Hell, I'm a Miami fan and as much as I love to hate FSU, even I have to say that's ridiculous that they fire a guy for telling the truth. Really makes FSU come off as very full of themselves. Hopefully both FSU and Miami will improve so they can be the top teams that they used to be and make the rivalry fun again instead of thes stinkers they've been playing the past 3-4 years. Go Miami!!!

I've been an FSU fan for over 15 years, through scandals, losses, and wide rights. I think it is disgusting that they would fire someone for telling the truth, but work so hard to cover up player and academic scandals. Gene and PT broadcasting together was the only thing that got me through the losses. PT has always been so honest, so enthusiastic about the games and the FSU program as a whole. If PT is gone, then so am I.
