FSU HC Mike Norvell talks 5th day of spring football practice: ”We’ve thrown a lot at these guys”

Florida State football held its fifth practice of the spring on Thursday, the Seminoles now three days into its acclimation back into physicality.

Today’s practice saw Florida State continue to push situational football, emphasizing the ability to continue to do the little things right no matter the circumstance — an elevated challenge given the new offensive and defensive schemes the squad is attempting to master.

“Letting guys see different areas of the field, understanding different thoughts, concepts, couple new schemes that we put in — I thought guys handled it well for the first day of introducing that,” head coach Mike Norvell said. “I thought there was some good plays that showed up — the quarterbacks had a good day — but a couple missed opportunities.”

“We’ve thrown a lot at these guys in the first five practices. Seeing them continue to grow in confidence and what hey’re being asked to do —play faster, line up quicker, make sure they’re understanding assignments and utilizing the techniques that are designed to put them in the best position.”

Norvell offered compliments to Omar Graham Jr. as well as Amaree Williams, who snagged an interception as he continues to get work in at defensive end.
