CBS Sports HQ.<\/a>\u201d The College Football panel ranked the current hot seats across the nation. During this discussion, Norvell\u2019s situation at Florida State emerged. The Seminoles\u2019 head coach is nearing the end of his time in Florida.<\/p>\n\u201cI\u2019m still gonna go scorching. Just because we have just seen what is a booster attempted coup to get rid of Mike Norvell. When that happens, those feelings don\u2019t go away. I do think what\u2019s important to note is that there is support within that administration to keep him,\u201d John Talty revealed.<\/p>\n
According to reports, following the Seminoles\u2019 loss to Stanford, boosters spent the journey back commiserating and planning for the future. It was even reported that a move could have happened as early as last week. However, Norvell still has support within the program.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs we continue to move forward this season, our comprehensive assessment of the football program will be completed at season\u2019s end. Meanwhile, we are fully committed to helping Mike Norvell and the 2025 Seminoles strongly rebound in the coming weeks,\u201d Athletic Director Michael Alford stated.<\/p>\n
After potentially missing out on a bowl game, the writing appears to be on the wall for Norvell. With one of the worst recruiting classes in recent memory, as well as a horrible ACC record, Talty stated that there is still one thing Norvell can do to save his job.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the key is he\u2019s going to have to win games. It starts this weekend. We\u2019ve seen a bad loss, and certainly, I think if Florida State were to lose this weekend, it would be very hard to move on for Mike Norvell,\u201d Talty stated.<\/p>\n
The Seminoles take on a 5-2 Wake Forest this weekend in a game that Norvell will be looking to secure his first ACC win this season. According to Talty, Florida State is seeking to retain its head coach for as long as possible, given the current coaching climate.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I think they would love to be patient if they can, especially with what the market already is with Florida, Penn State, and LSU already open.\u00a0I think they would love to kick this can down the road for one more year, but Mike has to win down this stretch.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to reports, Norvell\u2019s buyout of his contract, which runs from 2025 to 2031, is expected to be around $53.3 million. This would make him one of the most expensive firings in College Football history, even after Coach Kelly\u2019s and Franklin\u2019s recent costly buyouts.<\/p>\n
With this report, Florida State currently faces no ranked teams in the future as Norvell looks to cling to his job. In the coming weeks, they will take on Wake Forest, Clemson, Virginia Tech, NC State, and the Florida Gators.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mike Norvell is currently on the hot seat at Florida State following their loss to Stanford.
