It isn't.

Florida State slashed payroll this summer and Norvell will only make 45K more than he did here.

I think the challenge means more than the money. He did all he could do here.

Exactly and the man has career aspirations, like most anyone else.

Sure, but there are better jobs.

Florida State is a giant mess right now.

What are you talking about? The AAC was ranked higher than the ACC and that is including Clemson. It amazes me how some of our fans have an inferiority complex. Brutal.

Saying ACC defenses are faster than AAC defenses is not an inferiority complex. Go to sleep old man. It's true.

What are you basing your assertion? Remove Clemson, and the AAC is every bit as competitive as the ACC.

I thought the Georgia Tech DBs were very good. And the FSU QB was waiting too !ong to throw his telegraphed passes. And when he did decide to run it was too late. The #2 guy could run but couldn't pass. They definitely need players.

I'm talking to some good guy dolls. I'm saying the ACC has better defenses than the AAC. Stop being emotional about that fact. The conference we're closet too in style of play is the Big 12. We could win a head to head against that conference.

Exactly

Kinda like Calipari

Norvell didn't try to take down the program on his way out the door.

That's not how you spell Brady White

I don't know. Difference between us and FSU is definitely the offensive line. Brady White would've definitely won the game if he was at FSU.

Florida State's roster is full of a bunch of losers. All the Taggert players have ever known is a loser mentality. Can't change them. Just have to get rid of them.

But defense...Come on.

Yes, that's the difference--and how he talked about us afterwards. Big difference! I will support Norvell. He's a "good guy" that did things right on the way out.

Norvell left our program in good shape and I wish him the best. Just watching the game yesterday, in my opinion the players don't seem to have bought into Norvell's system. It could take several years to get his players that will buy in. Unfortunately I'm not sure Florida State and their fans will give him that time.

One major unknown with MN is that nobody knows if can fix a sinking ship, he didn’t do it here as he was given the keys to an already winning program. He took us to the next level but turning a bad situation into a good situation is much harder than turning a good situation into a great situation like he did here. He was an amazing ambassador for the city while he was here and took us to unprecedented heights, I’ll always be a fan of his
