Mike Norvell is off to his second 0-3 start in his five years at FSU. It's only happened three times in the last 50 years. Norvell has a reputation as one of the best offensive minds in college football. However, it's like someone placed a hex on his offense in the first three games of the 2024 season. The offense is why FSU is 0-3, and it's not even close. FSU only managed to score ONE touchdown against the Memphis Tigers after having an entire bye week to prepare for one of the worst defenses in college football. FSU football fans deserve better, and they are mad with Mike Norvell:

2 weeks to prep for Memphis. Year 5. This is the result? I'm over "the Climb."

Mike has to go! If he is not willing to make changes starting with giving up the play calling he then has to go as well!!!

Will anyone show up the rest of the year to Doak?

Save us from this nightmare and just forfeit every game from here on out

I can’t support this team with #DJU behind center. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt with this piss poor o line but I can’t do this anymore. Norvell has to make a change or #FSU about to go winless because I don’t think we will beat CSU in November.

Mike is making me REALLY not like him. He's losing all of the equity he has built up.

Not pulling DJU is negligence.
They have every right to think this way. FSU started the season ranked No. 10 and look like one of the worst-coached teams in college football. Teams typically get better between games one and three, but FSU seems to have regressed since its season opener against Georgia Tech. FSU went 23-4 over the past two years and claimed its first ACC Championship since 2014 last year. Mike Norvell had built tons of equity after overcoming a tough start where he inherited a cluster.
However, this team has a canny resemblance to the team he took over five years ago. The defense at least has some semblance of heart and have given FSU chances to win every game. However, scoring 21, 13, and 12 points in the first three games when you're an offensive-minded coach calling the plays? FSU fans will not stand to support this atrocity much longer unless some changes get made and Mike Norvell has some decisions to make.
