Football:
Who is interim head coach Chris Thomsen? We’ve got background on Florida State Seminoles football interim head coach for the rivalry game with Miami this weekend.
The Seminole Wrap podcast previewed the Miami game with a guest from State of the U.
FSU’s defense will be getting a big boost as a key player should return for the showdown with the Canes. That goes with the depth chart released for the game; some positions appear to be solidified.
Vegas has also released a spread for the game, with Miami favored by two scores.
But they play the games for a reason, and FSU practiced yesterday. Mike Norvell and Thomsen also spoke to the media. Norvell outlined his virtual involvement in practice and what he’ll be doing on gameday. Offensive coordinator Kenny Dillingham will be the play-caller.
It’s Miami Hate Week, so relive the Nolement:

FSU Baseball’s recruiting has been great lately:
Carson Montgomery (No. 40 on the BA 500) was the top-ranked player to make it to campus this fall.

Which is good news for @FSUBaseball.
It's the second time in four years they've landed the top prospect to go unsigned

TomahawkNation’s Brett Nevitt interviewed Montgomery, who will be Florida State’s highest ever rated pitcher to make it to campus. Nevitt also profiled Montgomery here.
Florida State’s Johnny Pak was the only amateur golfer to make the cut at the US Open. He could be a future star in the making:
Beyond proud of our guy @johnnydpak. He finishes with a final-round 7️⃣4️⃣ at Winged Foot! He was the only amateur to make the cut.

Some alum have words of wisdom:
PSA for all you fake Nole fans that always want a quick fix; Not even Bill Belichick could come in and make us National Championship contenders right away. Its gonna take time, But hey keep trying to run coaches out of here and we will be trash for the next century ♂️
