Tears Nole Tears (“Offcial”)

Going 13-1 in 2023 has really overshadowed the fact that since Jimbo's last season in 2017, they have had only two winning seasons. Miami and Florida haven't been that much better with only four a piece, but **** that's so bad.

Like it's hard not to imagine seeing FSU kind of sputter as a program like Nebraska has done for the last 20+ years, even with FSU's recruiting advantages over a program like Nebraska. Because if Norvell doesn't work out, when do they cut him loose? Can they afford such a high buy-out plus exit fees from the ACC, and the money for a brand new coaching staff? Because the longer the uncertainty of the program goes, the more likely the bottom completely falls out more than it already has.

And one thing I've wondered, is that if Norvell does have another bad season, and they do pull the plug on him, I wouldn't be shocked if they do the obvious bad decision of possibly rolling with the Gus Bus. Could you imagine?
 
Couple things. One, Miami is -6.5 at FSU, just released today from Circa as part of their Games of the Year.

Secondly, about 80-85% of FSU’s players have not signed their NIL paperwork due to all the **** we’ve been discussing here. Straight from the horse’s mouth, it’s a very bad situation. For now, it’s cordial and the kids are agreeing to practice under the assurance that things are being worked out. But FSU’s contractual language is super ****ed and differs from any other school in the country. I was told, you may start to see some “hold-ins” like in the NFL where the player will report to not rock the boat, but won’t play due to “injury”.

This is as of 2 days ago. The majority of the team is unsigned.

Honest question. What percentage of an average “good” team gets NIL money? Is FSU’s 75 percent unsigned, 75 players or 15 out of 20 players?

The “signing” is for the settlement related Revenue Sharing - correct? A player can play without signing THAT contract and still have other NIL deals. But most would want to participate in the rev share.

So when he occasionally has a clean pocket and he wants to plant and really step into one he is going to hit his OL basically in back of the head with his throw.

I mean it feels like they cant be any worse and their schedule seems like they could get to 5-6 wins.

But man...2-3 wins just wouldnt be that big of a shock again.

Yea if he jumps up other than that he’s gonna pop one of them square in the middle of their back…

Buyout is still over $50MM even after this season I believe.

They wonder why they can’t get into the AAU, but apparently no one at that school understands basic financial principles.

SIAP, feel to yell at me, but I just saw this on the Gator board and can’t stop laughing.

Summary of FSU’s 2024 season according to Mike: “It was a good work day.” 🤣🤣🤣

It’s always good to rewatch this one! Just like rewatching Porky's (showing my age) every so often. You laugh like it's the first time! And/or start cracking up because you know what's coming.

LOL I’m a little younger than you (late Gen Xer), but I havent seen Porky’s since the 90s. And I don’t think I was sober anyway, since I’m pretty sure I watched it in a friend’s room in Pearson! I should give that a rewatch.
