Let's Revisit Mike Norvell's Extension Last Year

Who didn't see this coming other than FSU fans?

- He hit 100% on the portal last year.
- He sucks at high school recruiting.
- He hasn't hit much in the portal this year.
- Bringing in Ukalelee cost him his number 2 QB who was better than him. And now you have to bench a guy who sucks and is making over a million. That will sit well.
- Going 0-2 and having no culture or organically developed leaders is going to make that a tough turnaround.
- LOL
Solomon et al are about to start getting "you sure about that??" tweets. :pop2:
 
@Wild Turkey it sounds like those in Baton Rouge aren't too happy either. The buyout for the dancing freak is said to be "at least" $95m.

I Googled it and it looks like BK's buyout will be around 60mm at the end of 2024.

I'm also reading that the LSU administrators acknowledge they can't pay that out until the amount gets more reasonable or they risk NIL funding to fall off.


"If the team and the boosters even wanted to pony up that much money after paying the next coach you'd likely see a massive downturn in NIL spending."

Although from what I saw Sunday Night LSU does not have a talent issue, they don't have a QB issue but they do have a coaching issue. Better coaching and they win that game.

I tried to warn the LSU guys here. It was dismissed as being salty. Let me be the first to say

I'm sure he just needs a little pep talk from ol' Blobby Blowden.

BS. I didn't want the fucker from the get go, and I said as much, in several different threads. The goober couldn't get it done at Notre Dame with the talent that Notre Dame can draw. To me, not a good coach and I didn't want the dipshit coming to LSU. But they didn't ask me!

IIRC, the 95M buyout would be if they fired him after he won a NC. You know, like Auburn and Fla. St. did. But the buy out is still high.
 
Losing the locker room in week 3 after a contract extension has to be some type of record
 
Is Florida State printing money? Asking for a friend. Combine Norvell's buyout and trying to get out of the GOR. Steep...
 
The semen holes. Dumpster fire.
 
FSU shared the details of Norvell's extension, which was signed on Feb. 16 by him and athletics director Michael Alford, through a public records request. The FSU head coach will make $10 million for the fifth year of his contract in 2024, a heavy leap up from his base salary of $5.55 million in his fourth contract year in 2023.

It's also a sizable raise from the $7.550 million Norvell was set to make in 2024 according to the contract extension he signed in February 2023.

From his current salary of $10 million, Norvell's base salary will go up by $150,000 per year going forward, getting all the way up to $11.05 million in the 12th and final year of the current contract in 2031.
