So excited for the opportunity to cover the best state in the country. Cannot thank enough people for helping me get to this point. From the original Noles247 crew of Josh, Chris and Brendan giving me a chance back in 2019 to everyone else on staff like Brett, Trey, AB, Kevin and Dane — I truly appreciate all of you. The FSU community will always hold a special place in my heart. The support over the last seven years will be something I remember forever.
Want to officially introduce Zach Blostein as a member of our @247sports national recruiting team, where he’ll cover the state of Florida. He was a a standout on our Noles247 site and his diligence, sourcing, and reporting chops make him the perfect fit for this new role.

Incredibly underrated talent. Special athlete who projects well anywhere on the DL. A dream fit in a heavily multiple front system like Tony White’s defense.
Jacksonville State defensive end Emmanuel Oyebadejo is expected to enter the Transfer Portal, sources tell @247Sports. The 6-foot-7, 320-pounder totaled 41 tackles, 4.5 sacks and 2 FF in his first year of college football in 2025. Oyebadejo is originally from England.

Legitimately really solid prospect. Very explosive, home-run hitter.

Seeing that Stanford game didn’t leave people wondering about the odds that this team will rebound into a “successful season.” It doesn’t feel like a possibility. Doesn’t even feel fair to expect it. Just shockingly tone deaf.
it's gonna get so predictably ugly...let me emphasize the predictably

Shocked by the lack of a pulse that Alford has on this program and fanbase.
That statement insults the intelligence and passion of the FSU fan base. I don’t blame anyone who is pissed.

Just a completely unacceptable decision by FSU's administration.

Also, and Norvell is an adult and being paid handsomely for the pressures that come with this job: It's unfair to let Mike coach another game. The amount of shit his team will get for every mistake it makes the rest of the way, the anger fans are gonna feel by being forced into purgatory...a colossal misreading of the situation imo.

In case anyone hasn’t caught on yet, I don’t think FSU’s gonna win this game, folks.

Andrew Luck (Stanford’s GM) doesn’t wear a headset on the sideline, but FSU’s GM does. Make of that what you will lol

Recruiters who don’t do the work get worse ROI on NIL. They have to pay a premium to make up for the deficit in effort and relationship. In some cases they don’t even get to the table. The premium paid per player erodes capacity for other options & you’re always playing catch up.

Case Closed? FSU falls to 0-3 in ACC play and dropped its third game in a row. Mike Norvell's results against ACC teams are middling at best over his tenure, which isn't acceptable given the resources and standards at FSU. We can't keep doing this: 247sports.com/college/florid…

Don’t let anybody gaslight you into believing there aren’t coaches available who can do better than 0-8 in the last 8 in ACC play at Florida State.
