Mike Norvell's Florida State coaching future uncertain after 2-2 start

Summary

Florida State head coach Mike Norvell faces pressure following a 2-2 start this season. The Seminoles have struggled in recent years, recording a 9-19 record since the 2023 season, including a 3-14 ACC mark. Following a series of setbacks, including a power outage during their home opener, Norvell needs significant wins to secure his position. He must start with a victory against Virginia this weekend to help turn around the season and potentially reach the required 7-win threshold. The athletic department is also reportedly considering former coach Jimbo Fisher if performance does not improve.
