“One of the most surreal moments—and we didn’t even know the history we were making.”

FSU legend Roberto Aguayo sits down with Stay Tranquilo to walk through the 2013 national championship run, life under Jimbo Fisher, playing with Jameis Winston, the Clemson beatdown, Auburn in Pasadena, and what it really takes to be elite as a specialist. We also dig into today’s college game—NIL, the transfer portal, and why discipline, coaching, and culture still separate winners.

What we cover:

Growing up a soccer kid → becoming the nation’s No. 1 prep kicker

Learning behind Dustin Hopkins; redshirt year with Jameis

2013: Clemson in Death Valley, “find a crumb” mindset, and Pasadena vs. Auburn

Kicking under pressure: routine, composure, and execution

The Jimbo years: practice, preparation, and standards

2014 lessons, Oregon loss, and sustaining excellence

Today’s landscape: NIL money, portal volatility, and building real programs

Coaching the next generation (Aguayo Kicking), special teams details that matter
