2-10 and completely unserious. i get that its media day for them but a serious program would have their social media team highlighting "work hard" moments not goofing around moments.

complete joke of a program

4 wins at most. Where have they improved?

They got better at QB with Castellanos, but the QB room overall blows. RB is average, nothing special. WR is a dumpster fire. Their WRs going into last year was the reason I kept saying they’d suck. That TE they have is going to be a good one. OL blows. Castellanos will be running for his life half the time.

Defense will be scrappy, but you gotta be able to score. All in all I think they’re a 4-8/5-7 team. Norvell gets ****canned mid season 26’, since they can’t afford to buy him out + staff and go for a big name coach.

As a program, it just feels like they have zero momentum at the moment.

This is pretty accurate.

They’re better but it’s hard not to be better than the team that beat one D1 team all year.

A significant improvement would still only make them a 4 or 5 win team.

They’re going to need their big money boosters to have a come to heart moment like we did three years ago. You either go all in with the money for NIL AND coaching or just relegate yourself to a mid tier ACC team forever. They’re going to have to buy out Norvell, overspend on a real coach they can get behind and get their collective in gear.

It’s 2025. The only way out of mediocrity in college football is to buy your way out. Otherwise the best you can hope for is an occasional 9 or 10 win season mixed in with a bunch of 7 win seasons

They struggled to hire during their last search and eventually settled on Norvell. I’d be curious how much enthusiasm there would be from boosters after the last few disasters which cost them big $.

Outside of Sanders, who could they really rally behind that’s realistic?

I hope they go the opposite direction. Pull NIL funding as the players graduate.

Make FSU about the academics…not the athletics!
 
FSU’s entire offense was smelly hot garbage last year. Probably the worst I’ve ever seen since I’ve been following Big 3 football for the last 30+ years.

But for as bad as it was across all levels, the OL was really the undoing. They couldn’t block ANYONE. I remember watching that BC game and thinking they were so cooked because they were getting smoked at the LOS. It’s such a reason I wanted Mario here because the floor of your team is usually very high if you have a good OL and so low if it’s ******. But back to them, who is playing OL for them this year? If they are even close to as bad as they were last year, they’ll be lucky to make a bowl game.

If they spend money, they can hire almost anyone they want. But they’re going to have to overpay. They’re going to have to pay the suck tax for a coach and for players. This is still a program with 3 national titles in semi-recent history though. If they spend it can still be a good job. It’s just that ever since they won with Jimbo. They’ve gone cheap. They allowed another college to hire their championship winning coach out from under them. Regardless of how you feel about Jimbo as a coach, that’s still a bad look.
