Whatever It Takes: Florida State Fans Are Now Trying To Raise $25 Million Via Crowdsourcing To Help Fire Mike Norvell
Now it's serious. There's nothing like college sports because this happens every year or so. There's a big time program in either college football or college basketball pissed off at their program and need to find a way to fire the coach. The whole problem though is the buyout. Coaches get A TON of money if they get fired and it's a large reason, especially now, why schools hold back on firing guys.
That's where fans come in. Raise money to recruit? Nope. They are done dealing with that. They are just going raise $25 million or so to help fire Mike Norvell. They aren't even going for the full amount! They just want a fair 50/50 share between them and the school. Love the thought process here. Look, it's just $102. That's not much money, we just need a quarter of a million people to donate that. It'll show who cares about Florida State football and not.
I'm not surprised we're at this point with Florida State, but I assumed we'd get through Labor Day Weekend before shit hit the fan like this. You gotta have a losing record before you start raising money. I mean, sure, it is weird for Florida State to lose home games and be basically irrelevant the lat couple years, but feels like this is a move at 1-3 or something like that. You're 1-1 and technically still alive for the playoffs. Its 2026. You can make the playoffs with a couple losses.
Either way, I respect the move. Take matters into your own hands and don't let Florida State get away with not firing Mike Norvell.
