Florida State University has announced an 8-year contract extension for Mike Norvell, following the team's remarkable 13-1 season and ACC Championship title. Despite being left out of the College Football Playoff, Norvell's decision to stay with the Seminoles, especially amid rumored interest from Alabama after Nick Saban's retirement, highlights a significant commitment to FSU
The 2023 college football season saw FSU rise to new heights under Norvell's guidance. The Seminoles finished with an impressive 13-0 record, securing the ACC Championship and earning the admiration of fans and pundits alike. However, the playoff committee's decision not to include them in the CFP left many questioning the selection process. Despite losing to Georgia in the Orange Bowl, many were still disappointed because the Noles deserved to be in there. And plus FSU had many opt outs for their bowl game.
What stood out even more than the team's on-field success was Mike Norvell's unwavering commitment to Florida State. Despite rumors linking him to the vacant coaching position at Alabama following Saban's retirement, Norvell chose loyalty over the allure of a prestigious program.
