Mike Norvell Is An Offensive-Minded Coach

Oklahoma's head coach, Brent Venables is a defensive-minded guy. If O'Neal sticks with Oklahoma, he'll be going to play for an offensive coordinator who didn't value his commitment and a head coach who only cares about defense.

If O'Neal flips to FSU, he'll go play for one of the best offensive minds in the game with a great track record of productive offenses. He'll have a head coach who's offensive-minded, and those two have coached together before and made magic when they were at Tulsa, producing some of the best offenses in college football.

Mike Norvell produced a top 10 offense in 2022 and a top 25 offense in 2023. I'm sure Oklahoma may point to last year's FSU offense, but Oklahoma's offense was nearly as bad.
