wow. ty for sharing.
that is a ridiculous firing. what was this school expecting?
this guy has delivered in the past, on a level playing field. sheesh
Agreed.

Most people in the country have never heard of Kennesaw State, until he upset 6-2 Liberty this year. I don't know what these ADs or fan bases expect sometimes...

They are 9-20 over the last 3 years. It certainly looks like it's been going downhill for a while

What’s the opposite of a hot seat? Your phone blowing up with suitors?

1) Cignetti. Indians isn’t a tier 1 job but they have BiG money now. Some tier 1 schools that might be looking for a coach — USC, Florida, PennSt, OhioSt, LSU.

2) Lashlee. From G5 to possible CFP appearance. Above teams plus Ole Miss (if Kiffin gets a better job), Auburn, Oklahoma.

3) Army. At 10+ years he’s probably an academy lifer.

4) Mora? Definitely has turned things around. Could have appeal not at tier 1, but mid/lower p4.

Who else?
USC owes Riley a 60MM buyout. He’s not going anywhere.

Fire everyone but the leader.... so stupid.
I thought the same until I read that he signed an 8 year $80 something million contract extension last year. That firing ain't happening.

Norvell is a great coach. FSU was a national championship caliber team last year. He built that team quickly. They lost 46 players and replaced them. The chemistry isn’t there and the QB play has been awful. He’ll fix it. You don’t fire a coach that has his short history in Tallahassee. I’m in Tally right now and no one I’ve come across thinks he should be fired.

You guys are entirely ignoring that he had a crappy FSU poised for a national title within a couple of years of arriving. I’d hire Norvell in a second for most jobs in the eastern 2/3’s of the country.

Just to be clear, I’m not an FSU fan or cheerleader. I actually can’t stand them, but I’m very aware of them due to family being Uber fans. Not even moronic FSU fans are giving up on Norvell.

This actually may be the worst take in sports history

He earned a lot of good will with last year.
But this is such a dumpster fire that he easily gave it all back this year.

I mean 1-9. And not even in the SEC.
I kinda think at 0-2, the team quit.

Name me a really good coach, in any college sport, that had a disaster like this mid career.

Without Travis, Norvell is 19-25.
Travis sucked before Norvell got there. He didn’t cut it at Louisville and he wasn’t very good in Norvell’s first year but they got him up to speed. Travis credits Norvell with his development.

Assuming FSU's woes continue into next season, I wonder how many losses (maybe 4 tops?) the AD will tolerate before getting rid of Norvell. I don't mean to rain on billybud, but I find it so gratifying that the school that staunchly lobbied against us in the ACC is sucking worse than we did. At least we had excuses (bad coaches, poorly funded team, lowly rated players)...what are FSU's reasons?

Norvell went 1-9. Just goes to show you how volatile college football can be nowadays.

But I can’t figure out who needs to lose their job more! Norvell or Napier.

they are having a terrible year, period. They do not suck worse than we did. We reached an all time low.
