Assessing Mike Norvell’s Job Security at Florida State: A Closer Look
Headline: Florida State Head Coach Mike Norvell’s Job Security Solidified After Remarkable Turnaround Season
In a dramatic turnaround, Florida State head coach Mike Norvell has secured his position at the helm of the Seminoles football program after a stellar 2021 season. From a disappointing 0-4 start to a remarkable 13-1 record and a conference championship, Norvell has proven his worth and silenced any doubts about his job security.
According to a recent report by Dennis Dodd of CBS Sports, Norvell was named among the 13 coaches in the country deemed “untouchable” on a scale from 0 to 5, with 0 being “untouchable” and 5 being “win or be fired.” This recognition places Norvell in esteemed company alongside other successful coaches like Kirby Smart, Brian Kelly, and Lane Kiffin.
Last year, Dodd had Norvell rated at 2 on the scale, indicating that his job was secure for the time being. However, after leading the Seminoles to a near-perfect season and a conference title, Norvell’s job security has never been stronger.
In contrast, Norvell’s in-state rivals, Billy Napier of Florida and Mario Cristobal of Miami, are facing mounting pressure to improve their teams’ performance. Napier is rated at a 4 on the scale, signifying a need for immediate improvement, while Cristobal is at a hot 3, indicating that the pressure is on.
With the upcoming clash between the Gators and the Hurricanes, Dodd predicts that one of the coaches will find themselves on the hot seat after the season opener.
As Norvell continues to lead Florida State to success, fans can expect to see a bright future for the Seminoles under his guidance. Stay tuned for more updates on Florida State football and the latest developments in college sports.
