Mike Norvell and his hand selected four Florida State players landed in Charlotte, N.C. on Tuesday evening and made their way though the ACC Kickoff media car wash on Wednesday morning with a group of Tallahassee reporters.

Norvell, who was joined by FSU QB Tommy Castellanos, DL Darrell Jackson, OL Richie Leonard and DB Earl Little Jr., shared his assessment of offseason workouts, the mood of the team and addressed the confidence heading into 2025.

Florida State will open the 2025 season in a newly renovated Doak Campbell Stadium when they host Alabama on August 30.

Alabama opened as a 9 point favorite and the line has up to 14 on several sportsbooks

FSU finished in last place in the ACC and below .500 for the fifth time in seven years and third time under Mike Norvell.

Alabama failed to win 10 games for the first time since 2007, its first season under former head coach Nick Saban. The Crimson Tide lead the all-time series 3-1 including the most recent clash, a 24-7 win in 2017

Florida State’s winter window portal haul ranked 23rd in the nation with 16 additions and 22 losses. The spring transfer window has closed though the Seminoles remain active in pursuing prospects.

Florida State’s high school recruiting class for 2025 finished inside the On3 Top 20 team rankings and features DL Kevin Wynn who earned accolades at the US Navy All-Star Game.
