A public pledge to review at season’s end meets a buyout projected between roughly $54 million and $72 million.

Overview

  • On3’s Pete Nakos reports that a loss to Wake Forest on November 1 at Doak Campbell Stadium could accelerate Florida State’s timeline to part ways with Mike Norvell.
  • AD Michael Alford said the school will conduct a comprehensive assessment after the season and voiced commitment to helping the current team rebound.
  • FSU opened 3-0 with an upset of Alabama but has dropped four straight to fall to 3-4, with turnovers, penalties and defensive breakdowns cited in recent coverage.
