Football:
We’ve started our preview of Florida State’s 2020 season under new head coach Mike Norvell. Next up, FSU’s first true road game of the season against Boise State. That’s important because:
The Boise State football team restarted voluntary workouts this morning at 6am.

Campus had been closed since June 23 due to COVID-19 outbreak on campus, but it reopened today as was the target.
If you checked out yesterday’s ’Nole News you saw that EJ Manuel spoke about Mike Norvell and the expectations in year one. But he also had something to say about quarterback James Blackman:

The potential is certainly there. Does last year’s game against Boise State bode well for his odds at winning the starting job this season?
James opened the 2019 season with 327 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions on 23-of-33 passing. It was only the 27th 300-3-0 game in program history. pic.twitter.com/ues3BSwjNe

Brandon Walker with a nice outing in the Coastal Plains League yesterday. 2 scoreless IP, 1 H, 4 K’s. Has flown under the radar since coming in to a deep staff, but has one of the higher upsides. Could be an option to close games out in 2021.
