Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher and Pitt coach Pat Narduzzi got snarky about the officials after their respective games-and now they are paying for it. Fisher and Narduzzi both made diparaging postgame comments regarding the officials.
Fisher’s comments came after the Clemson game on Saturday, while Narduzzi’s comments followed their game against Virginia Tech this past Thursday.
The Atlantic Coast Conference issued public reprimands of both coaches. The conference also announced that institutional fines have been issued to Florida State for $20,000 and to Pitt for $5,000 as a result. The funds received from the two imposed institutional fines go into the Weaver-James-Corrigan Postgraduate Scholarship account.
