Warchant TV: Mike Norvell on energy, focus after first day of Florida State spring football practice
Florida State took to the field inside the Al Dunlap Practice Facility on Wednesday afternoon for day one of its 15 sessions long spring practice.
Florida State historically practices in the mornings in the fall and in the afternoons during spring to accommodate campus visits for recruits.
**Full summary from Wednesday’s post practice interview**
Following practice, head coach Mike Norvell said he was pleased with the readiness of the players and new coaches. “Thought it was the clean for the most part, throwing and catching,” said Norvell. “Thought the defense moved around well, some explosive plays (were) made.”
“I thought it was a good day.”
Norvell characterized the changes with a new staff as “subtle and distinct [but]…the mentality and approach is the same.”
Florida State will return to practice tomorrow afternoon.

Florida State will open the 2025 season in a newly renovated Doak Campbell Stadium when they host Alabama on August 30.
FSU finished in last place in the ACC and below .500 for the fifth time in seven years and third time under Mike Norvell.
Alabama failed to win 10 games for the first time since 2007, its first season under former head coach Nick Saban. The Crimson Tide lead the all-time series 3-1 including the most recent clash, a 24-7 win in 2017
