Among the few Florida State players who did shake hands was Winston. He was deeply stung by the first and likely last defeat of his college career, but he congratulated Oregon and then answered all questions in the postgame press conference.[/I]

I have only not shaken hands with an opposing team once in my life and that was because my coaches had bad blood with the other schools coaches, not to mention they were the dirtiest team we played. Safe to say we hated each other.
Regarding FSU not shaking hands, they were obviously upset about they way they played but that's no excuse for disrespecting an opponent. I didn't hear Oregon talk a bunch or smack pregame and I don't think they did during during the game to my knowledge.
I get they were upset but you have to swallow your pride and admit you played bad and they were the better team that day.
Jameis has enough class as a football player to know to respect an opponent enough to shake hands even in defeat.
 
There have been many excellent articles on Winston...this one ignored the character issues.
 
Did any of you read the article?

"It was never over," Winston insisted. "Honestly, it was never over. We just got beat, turned the ball over too many times. But it still ain't over yet. We can go and play again, honest."
Said Winston: "It hurts badder than whatever you can imagine, but the good thing is we live to fight another day. We've got tons of great futures. No one likes to lose, man. I mean, losing is really not in my vocabulary, to be honest with you, but we fell short today. Got to man up and just get better every day. I just hope we can learn from this because I ain't felt this way in a long time, I've got to say. So that's something to smile on."

Stanford?

I did. You don't have to write bad things about him to make him look like an idiot. Just quote him verbatim. Let him do it himselfs.

Most of the Seminoles had showered, dressed and headed to the bus by the time the golf cart brought Winston and defensive lineman Mario Edwards Jr. back to the locker room. As the last players trickled out and the media was ushered out, Winston slowly and silently removed his Florida State uniform.
Probably for the last time. Then it will be up to the NFL to decide what to make of Famous Jameis.
If this was his last act, it ended with a profound comeuppance. After two years of escaping everything that came at him, an eight-second karmic comedy of self-inflicted error brought down the curtain.
