Podcast appearances and mentions of Mike Norvell

Alex and Richard conduct the second annual Coach Firing/Retirement/Departure Confidence Draft, assigning point values to 27 FBS coaches based on how likely they are to leave their jobs after the 2026 season, either because they got fired or retired. (Poachings are not included.) Last year, Alex scored a narrow victory thanks to his bold and successful pick of Kyle Whittingham to be out at Utah after the season. Can Richard fight back?The board runs in order of tenure, from Kirk Ferentz's 28th year at Iowa to Bill Belichick's second at North Carolina, and produces wide gaps on Joe Moorhead, Mike Norvell, Luke Fickell, and the exact meaning of a Lincoln Riley departure.

Sam Cohen reacts to Mike Norvell saying he believes his job is safe, breaking down the pressure surrounding the Florida State Seminoles football and what the future could hold.

Rod Babers, CJ Vogel, and Bob Shipley dive into the latest Texas football storylines, starting with the massive upcoming commitment decision for five-star wide receiver Monshun Sales. The crew breaks down the Texas vs. Indiana battle, why the Hoosiers are a real threat, how Steve Sarkisian's quarterback pipeline could help the Longhorns, and why Sales' physicality and playmaking ability make him such a major target.   The conversation also covers where Texas ranks among the youngest teams in college football, what that says about Sark's roster-building approach, and how the Longhorns compare to programs like Georgia and Ohio State in the portal era. Plus, the guys discuss Gary Patterson's move to USC, Tom Herman joining Florida State's staff, the future Texas quarterback battle between KJ Lacey and Dia Bell, and why the 2026 Texas offense needs to be Sark's best yet.

Florida State head coach Mike Norvell joins to discuss the Seminoles' outlook heading into the season after a difficult year. Norvell reflects on the lessons learned from last season's struggles, why he believes the team can grow from those experiences, and the mindset of players determined to turn things around in Tallahassee. He also talks about newcomers like Deuce Robinson, the versatility of this year's roster, and the challenges of navigating Florida State's upcoming schedule.

In this college football podcast episode, we continue our 2026 ACC preview with conversations about eight conference teams and Notre Dame. Is this finally the year Miami turns its loaded roster into its first conference championship? How high is the ceiling for an Irish squad with College Football Playoff expectations, a Heisman candidate at quarterback, and more talent than ever? We also examine whether SMU is ready to take another step under Rhett Lashlee, whether Virginia can build on last season’s breakthrough with defense and small ball, and whether Pitt can turn another fast start into something more sustainable. Florida State enters a defining seventh season under Mike Norvell, while North Carolina begins Year 2 of the Bill Belichick experiment with Bobby Petrino running the offense. Wake Forest remains dangerous, strange and difficult to play, while Stanford begins a patient rebuild under Tavita Pritchard. Plus: The Davis Warren Commission, Mid-Atlantic Hawkeyes, quarterback passport stamps, an unexpected amount of Train trivia, HGTV renovation metaphors, and an important reminder to wash your produce.

This week on THE DAWN, we caught up with Texas State head coach GJ Kinne as the Bobcats enter their first season in the Pac-12.I've been tracking Coach Kinne since his recruiting days as a big-time QB prospect, and he's been on a rocket ship in the coaching profession from the moment he traded his cleats for a whistle. After sitting down with him it's clear he has an ‘It Factor' that's translated straight into coaching, and that comes through during our conversation in the limited series, THE DAWN, presented by the Pac-12 and Y-Option.Coach Kinne inherited a program that had never reached a bowl game, never beaten rival UTSA, and never notched a Power Four win. He got all three done in year one, and he credits it to instilling confidence and an aggressive, swing for the fences mindset from the start.Coaching runs in GJ's blood. His father spent decades as a Texas high school coach, and GJ played and worked under a run of respected names including Todd Graham, Gus Malzahn, Chad Morris, Mike Norvell, Chip Kelly, Ryan Day, Bill Musgrave, and Jeff Stoutland. But it was Super Bowl winning coach Doug Pederson who gave him advice early on that stuck: just be yourself.That philosophy has carried him through head coaching stops at UIW and now Texas State as they enter the reimagined Pac-12.Watching Coach Kinne build this thing from the ground up, I keep coming back to the same thought: the rocket ship isn't slowing down anytime soon.Y-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth is a reader-supported publication.

In this college football podcast episode, we begin our three-part 2026 ACC preview by zooming out and attempting to make sense of the conference as a whole. Miami enters the season as the clear favorite, with Darian Mensah taking over at quarterback and another roster built to reach the College Football Playoff. But can the Hurricanes finally win their first ACC championship? From there, we sort the rest of the ACC into contender tiers and confront the question that defines the league this season: Who comes after Miami? We debate how much to trust Kevin Jennings and SMU, Jeff Brohm’s latest rebuild at Louisville, Clemson’s return to Chad Morris and the long list of possible challengers lurking in the conference’s crowded middle. We also examine the unusually unsettled quarterback landscape, widespread offensive line turnover, the arrival of James Franklin at Virginia Tech and the pressure facing Mike Norvell at Florida State. Plus, we identify our ACC pet teams, search for surprise storylines and hold an entirely unnecessary conference nickname draft.Support the show!: https://www.patreon.com/solidverbalSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT breaks down why Julian Sayin is getting the same treatment C.J. Stroud received coming out of Ohio State and explains why one of college football's most efficient quarterbacks still has doubters despite putting up elite production. JT also discusses why Oklahoma's playoff hopes depend on John Mateer turning his athleticism and swagger into cleaner quarterback play, why USC has the experience, quarterback, and coaching to finally break through and reach the College Football Playoff, and whether Tennessee is truly stuck in the SEC's middle tier or closer to becoming a consistent CFP contender. Plus, JT explains why Florida's revamped offense under Jon Sumrall and Buster Faulkner could become one of the SEC's biggest nightmares, why Texas' rebuilt running back room featuring Raleek Brown and Hollywood Smothers could be the missing piece that helps Arch Manning and Steve Sarkisian win a national championship, and ranks the top candidates who could replace Mike Norvell if Florida State decides to make a coaching change.

“The Film Guy” Brooks Austin joins The Next Round to break down two of the biggest conversations in college football: the hottest coaching seats in the country and who has the best QB room over the next four years? Brooks gives his full perspective on which college football coaches are under the most pressure heading into the season, including a deep dive on Florida State head coach Mike Norvell. Does Norvell have ANY chance to save his job at FSU, or has the situation in Tallahassee already reached the point of no return? The guys also discuss Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian and the pressure to win now with, arguably, the most loaded roster in college football. With Texas entering the season with massive expectations, how much pressure is Sark really under to deliver a championship-level year? Plus, Brooks explains why he trusts Kalen DeBoer to get the quarterback position right at Alabama. Can the Crimson Tide continue to develop elite QB play in the post-Nick Saban era?

COACH IS JOINED BY Dennis Dodd to dissect the latest controversies and legal battles shaking up college football, starting with the NCAA's recent denial of Brendan Sorsby's eligibility appeal. The duo dives into the bitter scheduling feud between Texas Tech and Texas, highlighting how Texas Tech is willing to forfeit a game rather than back down from the dispute. Their conversation naturally broadens to the financial realities of modern college athletics, acknowledging that while educational degrees matter, market value and compensation are the true driving forces for today's athletes. Furthermore, they evaluate the Protect College Sports Act and how legislative efforts are attempting to navigate player pay in an era dominated by the transfer portal and unprecedented roster turnover. The discussion then transitions to the immense expectations placed on high-profile programs and individual players, specifically the unmatched hype surrounding Texas quarterback Arch Manning. Dodd and Coach unpack Paul Finebaum's recent, highly critical takes on programs like Indiana and Michigan, using his commentary to pivot toward an analysis of Florida State's ongoing struggles under Mike Norvell despite massive stadium and financial investments. Finally, the segment concludes with a look at the Missouri Tigers' future outlook; they agree that while Eli Drinkwitz has built a consistent contender, navigating the newly expanded SEC and maintaining a top-tier roster will demand relentless offensive output and significant financial backingSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of The JT Sports Podcast, JT reacts to the idea that Alabama's downfall is a lie and explains why Kalen DeBoer may still have the Crimson Tide positioned as a national championship contender despite impossible Nick Saban comparisons. JT also breaks down why Florida State kept Mike Norvell, whether the Seminoles' roster spending says more about money or lost belief, and how FSU's booster situation could shape the future of the program. Plus, JT discusses how Ohio State helped the Big Ten catch the SEC, why Indiana's perfect 16-0 national championship season may only be the proof of concept for Curt Cignetti's build, and why Will Muschamp could be the biggest reason Texas wins the Natty with Arch Manning leading the offense. JT also gives his college football breakout players to watch, including Keelon Russell, Dallas Wilson, Devin Sanchez, Bryce Underwood, Daniel Hill, Marquise Lightfoot, Waymond Jordan, Bryce Young, Marcus Stokes, and Jaime Ffrench Jr.

In this jam-packed episode, Coach is joined by CBS Sports national college football writer Dennis Dodd and analyst Charles Davis to deliver an insider look at the seismic operational, legislative, and coaching shifts rewriting the college sports landscape. The show kicks off with a deep dive into contrasting transfer portal philosophies—pitting Oklahoma State’s massive 80-plus player roster overhaul against Georgia’s selective, high-school-first approach—before Dodd breaks down a pending bipartisan congressional bill that could introduce strict federal oversight and a hard spending cap on athletic rosters. Coach explores how unprecedented financial investments have turned modern athletic facilities into self-contained living spaces to maximize player retention, while also addressing the normalization of coaches using non-traditional media platforms and the urgent need for comprehensive gambling education amid recent player controversies. After lamenting the loss of historic intra-conference rivalries and analyzing how all 16 SEC programs are strategically utilizing the transfer portal, the discussion shifts to a fascinating wave of high-profile coaching resets. The guys analyze Matt Campbell taking the reins at Penn State to replace James Franklin, the unique mechanics behind Michigan landing Kyle Whittingham from Utah, Alex Golesh’s explosive offensive fit at Auburn, and John Sumrall’s high-ceiling jump from Tulane to Florida. Finally, the segment wraps up with a sharp critique of the newly expanded 76-team NCAA men's basketball tournament and a definitive ranking of three powerhouse programs looking to bounce back under current leadership, detailing USC’s physical improvements in the trenches, Dabo Swinney finally embracing NIL and the portal at Clemson, and lingering skepticism surrounding Mike Norvell's Florida State squad.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Coach is joined by Charles Davis to break down a fascinating wave of high-profile coaching changes and program resets across college football. The guys dive right into the massive musical chairs happening at the top, starting with Matt Campbell taking over a Penn State program that Charles calls "the university of the Northeast". They note that while James Franklin put up great numbers, his struggles in high-profile national games ultimately opened the door for Campbell's elite talent-developing style. Moving over to Michigan, they pull back the curtain on Kyle Whittingham’s unique transition; it turns out Utah was already priming Morgan Scalley as the coach-in-waiting, which essentially allowed Michigan to swoop in and land Whittingham without a massive buyout battle since he had technically stepped down. Down south, they expect Alex Golesh to be a seamless fit with Auburn’s incredibly loyal fanbase thanks to his deep southern recruiting roots and explosive offensive background from Tennessee, while John Sumrall’s jump from Tulane to Florida has them both highly optimistic given his proven knack for elevating programs. To wrap things up, the guys rank three powerhouse programs looking to bounce back under their current leadership. Lincoln Riley’s USC squad takes the #1 spot after glowing spring reports about the trenches looking better than they have in years. Dabo Swinney and Clemson land at #2 as Dabo finally embraces "Realville" by mixing the transfer portal and NIL into his traditional high school recruiting philosophy. At a distant #3 is Mike Norvell’s Florida State team, where the hosts admit they're skeptical of a quick fix since the Seminoles just haven't looked the same since that heartbreaking playoff omission two seasons ago.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This date in history, NFL schedule release reaction, Quick Hitters: Manny Diaz is grateful, Arkansas tennis programs are back & the Dolphins extend De'Von Achane, Lane Kiffin just can't help himself, Ohio State-Michigan could look drastically different in the world of a 24-team playoff, Mike Norvell's confident about this upcoming season, and our weekly chat with AJ Hawk.

The Florida State Seminoles hierarchy needs specialized and well-advised plans for its football program to win big; firing Mike Norvell shall not be enough. Further, at least one massive step must be undertaken prior to Norvell's ouster. It's a biggy defined during the show. Here are the prime steps that won't be easy either. Brian Smith defines how the administration must be in lockstep with its finances, have the praise of its media, and possess the fan and booster support that the people currently in charge should be the ones making hiring decisions prior to Norvell being jettisoned. Good luck with each of those, as the Seminoles brass is failing miserably in the public opinion polls among all three categories. Can the Seminoles administration at least begin to make headway? Smith breaks down why those are critical points, how it happens, and one massive problem that still needs ironed out. The show also calls on fans to chime in. What do you want to hear about prior to this next FSU season starting? There's nothing truly positive to discuss. Zip. None. Nada. What's on your mind? Join the chat and let your voice be heard. Check out this exciting no-holds-barred podcast discussing FSU's future. Will Norvell be canned with a well thought out plan in place to find his successor, or will FSU fall further into mediocrity because of poor management?

We’re back for Part 2 of our May Q&A, which means the offseason conversation gets both bigger and weirder. We start off with College Football Playoff expansion anxiety, including the possibility of a 24-team field, the future of conference championship games, and the growing gap between the people running the sport and the fans who love it. We discuss the new marriage between Michigan State and Pat Fitzgerald, which leads us into a broader conversation about safe hires, risky hires, Transfer Portal recruiting, and what it actually means to rebuild in the modern Big Ten. We also touch on Texas, Arch Manning, Steve Sarkisian, Florida State, Mike Norvell, and the kinds of expectations that can turn a normal season into a referendum. We also spend some time on the quarterback and offensive coordinator pairings we’re most curious to watch, with stops at places like Georgia Tech, UCLA, Florida, Kentucky, and a few others. Which combinations are actually exciting? Which ones feel volatile? Which ones have the widest range of possible outcomes? And because it’s an offseason Q&A, we find room for the important stuff: wearing your team’s gear when things are bleak, whether video podcasts have raised the appearance bar, and Dan’s surprisingly spicy take on wearing sneakers with suits.
