I don't want to speak ill of the guy, in fact I think he will succeed at FSU if given the time. My issue was always the noise surrounding the program when Willie was here, and I'm willing to bet my life savings you won't hear the same noise with Norvell. Every beat writer and fan felt they knew more than Willie. They all had an opinion on who Willie should hire as coordinators, who should be starting at QB, what defense they should run, how he should run his official recruiting events, how he should give up play calling and be a CEO type coach, etc. I guarantee these clown ass cacs are about to get out of Norvell's way and let him fukking coach. I listened to the Nolecast and Bud said he didn't have any expectations for next season, and in fact doesn't think they'll make a bowl. That's odd. Cause when Willie took over a team that needed to reschedule a game to be bowl eligible and was facing a schedule loaded with ranked teams, the expectations in year 1 were still there. I wonder why a man taking over a bowl eligible team, with all the knuckleheads from the Jimbo regime cycled out, gets a mulligan and even have the bar lowered to not making a bowl in year 1? The beat can post opinions of idiots like Jim Mora shytting on Willie, but I've yet to hear anyone speak on the elephant(s) in the room, (the gambling and banging co-eds). They're all in lock step and the energy around the program seems different already. Also hearing a lot of them begging the fans to get behind the hire. This after watching the fanbase organically gravitate towards Willie and fill up the stadium for a spring game and them constantly trying to convince the fans not to support him or the team. At least Norvell gave a tip of the cap to Willie and praised the foundation he laid in his presser, but while these cacs tried to absolve Jimbo of his doings when Willie showed up, now they'll be constantly comparing everything good that happens to Willie, and blaming everything bad on Willie. Watch.
Because there isn't much if any talent returning.

You've fallen victim to the narrative already, huh? Let's see what's returning on defense....Asante, Woodbey, Gant, Durden, Kevon Glenn, Janarious Robinson, Kaindoh, Carlos Becker, Travis Jay, Jarvis Brownlee, Kalen Deloach, Fagan, Isaiah Bolden, Quashon Fuller, Woodie III, Amari Gainer, Renardo Green, Jaleel McRae, Derrick McLendon, Dennis Briggs, Tru Thompson, Robert Cooper, Curtis Fann, and Malcolm Ray to name a few. All of those guys either got significant playing time this year or came in with blue chip pedigree.

On offense .....Laborn, McKitty, Jordan Travis, Tamorrion, Helton, Pokie, Jordan Young, and Cam McDonald at the skill positions. Willie recruited at least 4 freshman offensive linemen that got a year under their belts to go along with Baveon Johnson, Christian Meadows, Brady Scott, and Boselli. That line is better than what Willie inherited. Even Grothaus and Ryan Fitzgerald will be upgrades in the kicking game moving forward. Who in the ACC outside of Clemson that has this level of blue chip talent returning? Don't believe the hype just cause we're losing Cam, Marvin, and Hamsah. Willie restocked the cupboard with football players. There will be more draft picks that come outta his two classes than what came out of Jimbo's crown jewel class of 2016 and his 2017 class.

You just named names that's it . How many plays were made by them? Is Terry staying?

@Champ_KW Durden, Lambo are declaring or transferring. You named some cats who are definitely seniors or shouldn’t be playing unless you have massive injuries. Their behind on development but time will tell.
Wonder how the new OC hire will sit considering a lot of folks thought the players were having too much fun and not taking stuff seriously
Kenny Dillingham: Auburn having more fun now

Aren't they all just names? I mean, prior to Willie getting there, Terry was redshirted in favor of Jared Jackson. I'll take my chances with the bulk of the names listed. At worst, those "names" played a decent part on a bowl eligible team. Why the pessimism? And looking at the WR draft class, Terry better come back. He's too good of a talent to be relegated to 2nd or 3rd round due to a log jam at the top of the board for WR's.

Bad as I wanted Willie, a brotha, to win at FSU. It wasn't going to happen under him. He gave me with way too many head scratching moments. Then he gets fired and shyt start leaking out about him and staff. It was a shyt show.

I'm excited about Norvell.

Hard to succeed when you're set up to fail, but he really didn't do himself any favors tho. Hate he didn't get an opportunity to coach "his" team, but oh well. I don't know much about Norvell, so there's nothing for me to get excited about. But I'm a sucker for my squads tho. Catch me after the spring game.....I might even put another Clemson win prediction in :mjcry:

They wouldn't even give the man a digital media person to handle shyt like game day uniform reveals for recruiting purposes. They even stalled on letting him hire Clements while they were dead smack in the middle of the two signing periods because they wanted to avoid paying a 300k buyout. Not to mention drying up the money by not renewing subscriptions after 1 damn season. When he got hired, he was all on the West Coast with the jet and able to pull two Cali kids and a Seattle kid. How many times you see him out on the West Coast after year 1? They dried his recruiting budget all the way up. They handcuffed Willie with this "we broke" nonsense.....even let the man donate $1M to the facility project cause they claimed broke. But they scrapped together $20M after 21 games tho?? Now watch with this hire, Norvell will get everything he needs to succeed. "New School Approach. Old school values".....right, Coach Norvell?

Exhibit A:

Pretty sure you can find Willie and Odell in a similar picture around this same time last year. Different jet tho.
I mean, ESD is like a week away.
At this point ion give a fukk about what was done in the past. I want to win now!

How long are some people gonna hang on to that? 22 games? 23 games?
