Memphis board seems to think Norvell to FSU or he stays home. One poster said that he had actually spoken to Norvell in the offseason and Norvell was happy with the admin and how they kept giving him raises, so it would take a retirement contract to get him away. Another poster said they expected him to get a bump to $4mil this year. So if he does go to FSU, it really sounds like they'll have to pony up a long-term high dollar contract for a non P5 coach. With Sexton being his agent and the train wreck of a search that's its been, I'm really looking forward to seeing what the contract is going to look like.
On the flip side, Memphis looks favored to get a Cotton Bowl Bid. So Norvell would have to decide between a job that he's bulletproof at with chances to make New Year 6 bowls, possibly get picked up in a conference expansion, and make $4mil or more moving forward. Or go to FSU to rebuild, and know that they are broke as sh!t and your paycheck may bounce.
