FSU plans to evaluate Mike Norvell's future at season's end
Summary

Florida State University expects to wait until the end of the season to make a decision regarding football coach Mike Norvell. Following the dismissal of Vice President and Athletics Director Michael Alford, FSU leadership is prioritizing issues related to revenue generation and resource management. Although Norvell's position is under scrutiny, the administration is focused on broader organizational changes. Comments from President Richard McCullough and Board of Trustees Chair Peter Collins suggested that any decision on Norvell will be delayed until after the season, amid ongoing challenges facing the football program. Norvell's continued tenure could depend on performance against upcoming opponents, including a Sept. 19 matchup against Alabama.
