If I was depending upon the "U" to be my quarterback I would be concerned as well. On the other hand, it is hard to imagine any self respecting offense not having some confidence in being able to move the ball and score on Tech's defense. Maybe Tech's defense will be better this year but I kind of doubt it. That said, "past performance is no guarantee of future results."I have been listening to most of Coach Norvell's post practice interviews during camp including his most recent interview on Wednesday. I really respect and like Coach Norvell. However, his voice and body chemistry doesn't match with someone who is coaching the tenth ranked team in the country. So I went back and listened to a post practice interview on August 31, 2023 as FSU was preparing for their showdown opener with LSU. During last year's interview, Coach Norvell was extremely critical of the play of his WR room( which ultimately produced 3 NFL players including the TE). However, his demeanor was of a coach who was quietly confident. In contrast, this summer his post practice press conferences reveal a coach that is deeply worried about many aspects of his team (particularly on offense). Coach Norvell seems hopeful, but if you watch and listen to him there is no question they are still searching for consistency on offense. He hasn't called their offense a work in progress, but their media members have called it that as late as last week. He knows he has his hands full, and the more objective members of their media also know it. The trouble is most of the Seminole Nation and the national media is expecting a near repeat of 2023. The bad news for Seminole fans is coming soon in Dublin, Ireland courtesy of Brent Key's Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
