Jimbo Fisher: No time frame to name FSU football's starting quarterback

TALLAHASSEE -- Before Florida State football opens its fall camp later today, coach Jimbo Fisher addressed reporters in his start-of-the-season news conference. A few highlights:

* Don't expect the starting quarterback to be announced soon. Redshirt senior Sean Maguire and redshirt freshman Deondre Francois will continue their battle into camp, and Fisher hasn't hinted whether one is ahead of the other.

"There ain't no timeframe (to announce a starter)," Fisher said. "I don't know. They'll dictate that."

Fisher did say that Francois' knowledge of the game has improved; he understands why to do certain things and why not to do other ones.
