That's a good fit.

So Lane Kiffin signing of the 7 year old to FAU a few years back means the kid will sign with Old Miss?

In Tallahassee...insider reports are that it looks like Norvell to the Noles.

FSU and Miami need to get on track....it was only after the 2016 season that SI was reporting...

With the best non-conference season, the best bowl season, the top two Heisman finishers and a championship game participant, the ACC is clearly the best conference this year.

With most notably....NY 6 games, Clemson's win over #3 Ohio State and FSU's win over #6 Michigan.

I think Norvell is the sort of young coach that could build up a program.

After rumors of Free Shoes missing out on Stoops, Franklin and Fleck, erecting a stage earlier this week at their Champions Club typically used for coaching announcements and then disassembling it the next day, wonder which coach FSU actually planned to hire and announce?

Clearly, Norvell’s Memphis success makes him a hot young commodity. Must be nice to potentially hire a pretty darn good fall back. In the Sunshine State, will it be enough I f Norvell only matches his Memphis predecessor Fuente’s VT .600ish performance by 2023? Better recruiting territory, similarly minimal admissions obstacles, no excuses ... .600 must nice!

 

[billybud]

Matt Campbell decided to stay after his contract was extended a couple of days ago and he was given an extra $1 million for staff.

 

[billybud]

John Franklin at Penn State also got a contract extention...as did Fleck.

A good agent floats your name for a vacancy as a method of getting a new contract.

If I had to guess Norvell is going to FSU

Florida State announces it has hired Mike Norvell from Memphis to coach Seminoles

Norvell has led the Tigers to a 37-15 mark in four seasons and won three straight division titles

Interesting as some bowl projections have Cincy playing FSU. That would be 3 straight games they've played against Norvell. That has to be some sort of record. LOL

Pittman: Whoa Nellie, that could be interesting for an apparently well-respected OL coach and recruiter. Control the line, recruit well and all, yet potentially a high-risk reach in the SEC West.

Only head coaching experience 25+ years ago with a JC for 1 year and 1 year each with 2 high schools. MANY 1, 2 and 3 year puddle jumps as an OL coach and a few add Asst/Assoc HC titles for a year or 2, but never an OC/DC.

Drinkwitz to Mizzou?: Good amount of success, including several years as an OC, for a guy from neighboring Oklahoma. Still, it's interesting for an SEC program to potentially hire a guy with only 1 year operating his own program as a head coach.

2 years in a row, imagine Appalachian State needing to hire a new head coach. Winning's a good problem, but what a royal PITA for an AD, players, recruits, parents, etc. App State verbal commitments: Potentially, soon to be chasing new opportunities?

If HCRE2.0 is so good, why no rumors of poaching by other schools, he is a cheap hire?
