Florida State's Mike Norvell Dilemma Ahead of Miami Clash

This was the game a lot of us circled and said, this is the end of Norvell this year. Then he rattled off a couple of wins that nobody thought he was going to get. And then he almost a 14-0 lead, 21-0 lead almost there against Louisville, and then proceeded to throw up all over himself. And that's what the Florida State Seminoles are. But we did, you know, an interesting story came out about, can we just write him the check and let him go? Well, no, you did that with Jimbo Fisher, and you don't have any more money, apparently. It's hard for me to believe that Florida State is crying poverty here, that they don't make any money, and that if they were going to write him a $65 million, they can't write him the $65 million. It's actually cheaper and more affordable for him to keep him losing games in Florida State as the head coach there than it would be to write him a check and get him out of the door. That's where Florida State is at. kind of hard for me to believe that that's i mean poor Bobby Bowden bless his soul he's got to be rolling over right now somewhere going are you kidding this is what i built and now they can't afford to get rid of this guy so they have to keep him yeah i think you know Florida State when Jimbo Fisher took over i thought things were going pretty well for them with Jimbo there and then he chased the money at Texas A&M that didn't go well there there are unfounded rumors and discussions Joe that Jimbo Fisher would go back and coach Florida State again and it's one of those things where it's where i don't know about you it does make some sense to me like yeah i mean he had a lot of success while he was there he goes back and says i screwed up you know i probably i'm not gonna leave this time if somebody offers me a lot more money he was a Disaster at A&M. They didn't win anything. And, yeah, I could see that happening. Norvell, by the way, will be a very good coach somewhere else, but maybe not Florida State. He was at Memphis, I think, before Florida State, if I'm not mistaken. So he'll be fine, too. These guys continually get jobs in college football. But that's, for a rivalry game, like a Miami-Florida State, for that line to be a touchdown, that's a lot. And I think you're right. I think that if Miami wins and they win by that number, then you can just start to count that. And by the way, conversely, if Florida State was somehow to pull that off, that may save them again. Well, then that would be the upset. I would call it the upset of the year. On the road, at Hard Rock, 7 o'clock. I mean, Miami's now the number three team in the country. Behind, of course, Ohio State and Georgia are right there.
