Final Thoughts

Have Mike Norvell and the staff done everything perfectly? Probably not, but the foresight to look at the roster and acquire the transfers they took is telling about his ability to run a football program at a high level.

There always seems to be some sort of plan or method to the madness. He let long-time FSU commit Jeff Sims go and signed two quarterbacks during the early signing period.

Former blue-chip defensive back AJ Lytton was dismissed from the program in the spring, and the Noles have added two defensive backs via the transfer portal.

It’s all about managing things and being prepared. What’s the old saying?

“Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.” I wish this pandemic hadn’t happened for a lot of reasons, one being its effect on what this coaching staff could have done to prepare this team for the fall.
