Football:
FSU (currently) has a game scheduled for this weekend! That means we got to hear from head coach Mike Norvell yesterday, who addressed the upcoming matchup.
A lot of players have opted out in recent weeks, so the depth chart for the game vs. Duke looks quite a bit different than it did at the beginning of this season.
Tomahawk Nation’s Kevin Little (aka X’s and Noles) took a look at the arguments swirling around defensive coordinator Adam Fuller. Does he really deserve to be fired after his first season in Tallahassee? Or are FSU fans’ frustrations misplaced?
Seminole Wrap podcast: TN has noted many times before the financial strain the athletic department finds itself under, so the pod squad sat down with Seminole Booster CEO Michael Alford to discuss a bit of his background, his goals moving forward for the organization, plans for the program and, of course, what band his parents wouldn’t let him see when he was younger.

Is FSU’s top defensive back leaving for the NFL? A tweet may have spilled the beans.
Giving back — players haven’t wasted their last few weeks without games:

Upset about FSU’s Men’s basketball team once again being disrespected in the polls? Well, they’re already on the move.
Who will FSU’s roundball teams face next?
Next for the Noles!@FSUHoops

Recruiting:
The Official Tribe 21 Recruiting thread.
And there’s plenty to talk about, as the ’Noles were on both ends of the recruiting game yesterday — they picked up a commitment from a blue-chip linebacker but lost a commitment from a blue-chip receiver.
FSU also offered 2021 JUCO cornerback Jadarrius Perkins.
What an incredible player:
Suwanee (Ga.) Collins Hill 2022 five-star CB and #FloridaState commit Travis Hunter has also caught 20 TDs this year. Name me a better two-way player nationally than Hunter this fall? https://t.co/usk74bXvZQ

FSU also landed a preferred walk-on commitment:
