This DESTROYED FSU football and also Norvell’s career at FSU.

Here’s three names I d like to see come in and lead a resurgence of FSU football: Jimbo, Deion, and Manny Diaz.

Manny Diaz as DC but with inside track for HC once Jimbo steps aside. His success at Duke and even with UM mean he can coach and his defense would be an obvious upgrade.

Build a dream team staff, and get talent to return. Spend money. FSU will be back quick.

I wish Mike Norvell the best. He was an inspiration to me as he led our program out of a dark place and through some rough times. He leads the right wa and made me proud to be a Nole.

Destruere celeriter et facile est; aedificare lente et difficile. To destroy is quick and easy. To build is slow and difficult. #Latine #LatinFluency
Destroying things is quick and easy. Creating things is slow and difficult.

Couple of things that upset me about this A) it’s not holding. He chops his arm down and he lost his balance B) this is very important. Holding is only supposed to be called if it could effect the play. The DE is double teamed and the ball is gone at the time of the “holding”. He’s nowhere near the QB. Just an all time bad call. It’s an official looking to be part of the game.
This was the holding call that brought back FSU's miracle catch in the end zone... Did they make the right call?

Someone with eyeballs explain to me how the hell the guy with the white sleeves is the one considered to control the ball here?!

Can anyone confirm whether or not the flag was thrown at the time of the foul or after the play? Not trying to relitigate, but it sure does seem the opportunity was taken from this team.

Aged like milk. Yet very appropriate for our fan base.

Curious to see what the toxic fanbase says about Mike Norvell now. Noles did us proud today. Tough bounce of the ball. Hold your heads high. But let’s build on that moving forward. Win out.
