Jimbo Fisher rallies high school coaches for support of West Virginia flood victims

With the devastation still mounting from massive flooding in West Virginia, Florida and Alabama football communities are offering help.

Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher, Seminoles veteran assistant coach Rick Trickett and Alabama coach Nick Saban, all West Virginia natives, have joined forces with numerous other coaches to rally their state high schools to find donations for football programs in their home state.

The flooding has claimed the lives of 23 people, left thousands homeless after destroying more than 1,200 homes and caused President Obama to declare a state of emergency for the counties effected.
