“This is going to be a fast, immediate fix,” promised an emotional Mike Norvell during his post-game press conference after Florida State’s 20-point blowout loss against Florida.

A week later, at his signing day press conference, he drew another line in the sand, proclaiming that any players who aren’t actively working towards making that immediate fix a reality wouldn’t be around to see it, “If I haven’t seen it in any action or I don’t believe it, then they’re not going to be here. That’s that.”

Of course, nobody knew if Norvell could be trusted.
