FSU football players on strike after Norvell lie

I think typically players take a wait and see approach when they get a new coach. I’m sure the UF players are happy now but not everybody buys in to what the new coach is selling right off the bat. I’m sure they will be happy if they start winning again. Maybe the players loved Taggart?? For example I think the UF players really liked Muschamp. He was just really bad at his job but probably well liked.

I know the locker was pretty split on Tagg, they either loved him or hated him. Same with coaches. Briles did not like Tagg, he felt like we wasted a ton of practice time and spent to much time doing rah rah stuff. Briles told another assistant we practiced "about half" of what they did when he was at Baylor just because of the ways the practices were set up. Said it was inefficient and he was literally working with one hand tied behind his back. Now some coaches loved his approach and thought he was a players coach who could recruit and eventually get it right. Coincidentally, one of the players who loved Norvell was Marvin Wilson (same guy who needed to change his tampon when Norvell said something). He praised Norvell and decided to stay (he was graded late first rd pick and could have left), Terry also stayed once he talked to Norvell. So the vibe from the players that matter seemed to be good but Norvell booted a corner and some people complained and hes booted about 7 or 8 others as well, as you said, some will like him and some wont. I think when you lose the people who dont like you become louder. When jimbo was here, tons of players hated him but they all respected him becuz of what he was building. You should hear the stories about Jalen Ramsey and Jimbo going at it. It has been up down so far but definitely more up than down. I think the players and coaches believe in Norvell and trust him. We still have Blackman at QB and as long as that happens we wont be very good. However, Norvell signed 2 high school QBs and already has a rly good one verbally committed for next yr (for context Tagg never signed a high school QB, not one). We have other issues as well but i think our roster is similar to the Gators when Mullen took over except we are so weak at QB and O line but improving at o line. I think this yrs team will be much better than last yrs team strictly from coaching. We have for sure losses to Clemson and Gators but every other game we can at least be in. Dont think we win them all but 8 wins isnt out of reach. We have west virginia and Boise ooc. Hoping one of the freshman QBs are good enough to take over mid way.

Muschamp was great on defense and special teams, outside of a good team for a year or two we were terrible and the roster wasn't balanced ever.
 
Clowns suck. The world is better without clowns. Who decided they were funny? When has a clown ever done anything funny? They’re creepy and they suck.

Someone had an awkward birthday party with a clown when they were younger...
