    FSU head coach Mike Norvell recaps Seminoles spring practice: “Very productive spring.”

    With spring camp firmly in the books for Florida State, head coach Mike Norvell met with the media on Wednesday for a post-spring press conference, touching on what he called a “very productive spring.” “I thought that we really got a great glimpse of the potential of what this team can be,” Norvell said, praising players for “trying to be their best, trying to challenge each other, trying to compete.” One of the highlights for him was the way the team responded following a lackluster practice towards the end of spring, bouncing back to showcase the execution he had been searching for up to that point: “To see the way that they responded the next two days was really a great opportunity for them to show a little bit of that grit, a little bit of that desire and the edge.” With spring practice cut two practices short due to the tragic shooting on campus (“I definitely think that was the right decision to be made”), the Seminoles will look to offseason and summer workouts to pick up the work and further establish continuity. Norvell spoke on the offensive line, which was one of the position groups hardest hit by injuries this spring, saying that “it’s gonna be a group that has great experience… potentially one of the great strengths of what this team can be,” while saying that the attrition in the receiver room was a result of “real conversations” due to being over numbers. “Nothing’s happened I can say was just absolutely unexpected.....I’m really pleased with some of the newcomers that joined the program in January, and I really believe that the growth of guys that have been here.” He was especially complimentary of the quarterbacks, saying that watching the group was “one of the highlights of our spring ball.” Florida State added transfer quarterback Jalen King last week, something that excited Norvell as he anticipates King to “hit the ground running....he’s going to be a great addition to the quarterback room. We’ve had the last few years we only had three scholarship quarterbacks… being able to have another talented young man in that room… is gonna provide great depth.” The head coach also spoke on tight end Markeston Douglas’ decision to remain with the Seminoles after previously announcing his desire to transfer for the second time in three years, saying “I’m grateful that he is here… I think we’ve got a chance to have a really dynamic tight end room… Markeston definitely brings tremendous value and playmaking ability.” Learn more about your ad choices.

    FSU football: Mike Norvell post-practice interview April 3

    Florida State coaches said before hitting the field for spring practices that the first part of camp would be about installation, familiarity and establishing healthy habits. Thursday marked the eighth day of spring practice, meaning the Noles are on the back nine of camp — and with the second of three scrimmages looming this coming Saturday, head coach Mike Norvell “wants to see guys take another step.” He didn’t see it on Thursday, however, saying after practice that he saw the team put together an up-and-down day with “lulls” throughout practice. “I didn’t think today was a bad practice, I just think there are moments we have to be better...We had two drops that were big play opportunities, and we have to eliminate that.” The head coach said Saturday’s scrimmage, the only open-media activity of the spring, will “be a little more game-like” with a continued emphasis on situational reps.
