FSU HC Mike Norvell talks first day of 2026 Seminoles spring practice
Monday, 9 March, 2026
FSU football hit the field on Monday for the first day of spring camp, piecing together a practice that head coach Mike Norvell said was “what you want from a first day.” “I thought it was a very productive first day,” he said. “There were some shots on ball defensively that I liked. I think we were able to jar one free [from] one of our young freshmen offensive players, so that’s something they could definitely learn from. Had a couple hands on ball in the defensive backfield.” “I thought the quarterbacks really did a really good job, being able to go and have control of what we did today. Located the ball well. I mean, there's a couple explosive plays that showed up down the field. But all in all, I think it felt like it was a team that came with a good understanding of day one and now we get to continue to work on the details of what's necessary and going to get better. Just in helmets, so only, there's very limited contact at all and obviously we'll build up for Friday to see the physical element of it but the guys moved well and moved confident.” Norvell also confirmed that defensive lineman Jordan Sanders will be out for the spring, defensive end Cam Brooks out until at least mid-season with hopes to get him in action and true freshman quarterback Jaden O’Neal will be out of the season. When asked about what he’s looking to see from quarterback Ashton Daniels, Norvell told local media that the priorities are locking in his “command and control of the things he’s being asked to do.” “This is really his fourth offense since he’s been in college he has to learn, and that is a good thing when it comes to a lot of things that you can fall back on,” he said. “There's not much that we're asking him to do that's totally different than something that he's done before, there are some foundational elements that he can pull upon but now it’s how we do it and the finer details — where we want eyes, the locations, reads all those things we kind of work together.” “I thought he threw the ball really well today. He's able to locate it, you could tell that those guys, receivers, quarterbacks, I mean, for the first day, I mean, you could see the work that they've done on their own. And so it was pretty clean when it came to that. And he had a really good control. I thought he played fast.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
