Back when NCAA Football was still a game there was a always a traditional power that would fall into irrelevancy after 7-8 years into dynasty mode. Every time I saw it wondered how it could've happened.

Now I know. Real life FSU did it in less than 5.

Not sure why we're questioning this extension. Norvelle is as authentic as this dude.

 

[TallyCane]

Yup. This smells like a PR move for recruiting.

This coming out the night before Signing day is definitely a PR move.

 

[Ziggy]

Extend Norvell!

 

[mojontmare24]

FSU fans are ready to burn it down!

 

[Heart of The Playmaker]

Lol was Willie Taggert fired for less?

Yes....yes he was

ya know despite many years of playing 04 I never once saw OSU in a national championship, **** they weren't even really that relevant. I was even more surprised at just how long michigan would remain a steady power sometimes fielding absolutely elite teams.

they probably gave my canes the biggest problem, although I had a very hard time defending tebow's offense for some reason. They scored like 35 on me, thankfully their defense is made of the same thing they are in real life.. pudding. Yes I poured it on and threw a hail mary for the last play of the national championship in a nail biting 84-35 winner.

This is just so people can’t negative recruit against them. One year won’t change his buyout.

Prob just extended him to help recruiting but kept the buy-out the exact same amount. if so, nothing to lose for them and can only help. Not that complicated.

 

[jsy]

The harder it is to get rid of him the better
Hopefully his extension made his buyout bigger

You read that right. 8-13 Mike Norvell, coming off a “magical” 5-7 season with #improvement, has been extended through the 2026 season.

Immediately reminded of Golden’s extension in 2011, despite not having done anything to earn it (to be fair to us, we were under sanctions and probably wouldn’t have been able to hire anyone). Blows my mind that FSU is extending a guy that hasn’t gotten them bowl eligible yet. Imagine if they go 5-7 again next year.

Recruiting ploy probably just something to ease recruits mind of him getting canned if he ***** the bed again next year

 

[MovingZen]

wow

Reminder to all. This happens for Norvell because he pulls out a last second win against Manny Diaz. They go 4-8 and there’s no chance of this, though he probably gets another year because FSU is broke.

Best loss since Clemson caused Golden to be fired. Extends a hc who is below average to average and gets Manny back to being a dc and Mario back home.

Move helps preserve their class but they’re just mortgaging their future at this point. 1 step forward, 5 steps back. Hate to see it.
