FSU's Mike Norvell offers up the worst signing day phrase since '5-star heart'
Would you look at that?
Butch Jones finally gets his first head coaching gig since the Tennessee debacle and some of his old sayings suddenly start to rub off on other college head coaches.
Remember “5-star hearts”? It was one of Butch’s greatest hits as Tennessee’s head coach.
Florida State coach Mike Norvell put out his own variation of it as the Seminoles look to lock in recruits during the early signing period.
#FSU head coach Mike Norvell:
"I want the biggest, strongest, fastest at EVERY position, but what I’m most looking for is the 5-star MENTALITY."

Mike Norvell says he wants the biggest, fastest, strongest players … but he also wants a “Five-Star Mentality.”

We see what you’re doing Mike. You think you’re sly by switching “hearts” out with “mentality,” but we’re onto you.
This quote is sure to make any Tennessee fan have PTSD, any Florida State fan cringe, and any Florida fan to grin ear-to-ear.
His class sucks, but like a typical semi he is retreating into a fantasy world of BS and lies. What a clown.
Or your just a duesch.
Bad spelling has me confused. Is he a vaginal rinse or a German?
Yes, very confusing. Douche or Deutsch?
Embrace the power of “and”.
When’s the last time FSU was in the 30s of recruiting rankings? Yikes!
I know, right? They are struggling just to be a mediocre ACC team these days.
It would be refreshing to hear a coach just come out and say this class sucks, but they are ours and we are going to play with them. You should read some of the BS AU was slinging about their players.
Unclenutz and all other punctuation experts f off. You know what I meant you bunch of nuut wipes.
I’d say Nick Bolton would be a good example of 5-star Mentality. It’s gonna get him drafted in the 1st RD. Larry Rountree has 5-star Mentality too and only had 1 P5 offer.
I don’t understand what’s so wrong with it…obviously 5 star hearts had no success at Rocky Top so why would any coach in his right mind want a proven disaster, let’s go for the Brainiac types…Norvell’s a genius
I don’t think this is laughable. I’d want the best players with the best mentality also. It takes a special mindset to compete at the college level.
His class is actually fat, slow and weak, so he is trying to spin his group of lazy fat hogs into the champions of life. It’s pathetic because it is BS!
If I was the one that stole your bike when we were kids, I’m sorry
Coach speak has always been kind of funny. I dont really see the problem with it.
It’s merely a “gimmick-phrase” and these kids today love em.
FSUs 2021 class is terrible, but their 2022 is top 15. Way to early to tell if that will hold up, and I hate FSU as much as the next Gator, but Norvell is definitely gonna attract more recruits than Taggert. But the Gators will still beat them!! :))
NCGator, that depends on what shoes they wear for the game. If they go with easy on easy off Gators will have problems beating them, i’ve seen it happen.
NC, they have two commits for 2022. One is a 5-star cornerback who is apparently confused. I think he may flip when he learns that Deion is actually coaching at Jackson State and FSU is just where he played.
I hear FSU is highly ranked in the 2021 Life poll
LOL!
Jamie Newman didn’t have 5 star heart or mentality.
Jamie Newman ran from the competition, not knowing there wasn’t any. He could’ve been the guy. That won’t help him on draft day 2021.
Lots of truth here…sad.
Often overlooked in all the UGA UF back and forth razzing was the fact that hellloooo newwwwman really blew an opportunity to show the pro’s what he could have done at an upper tier program. Agree, whippy, no way he improved his stock with that poor decision…
Definitely a mistake on Neuman’s part. Now he’s placed himself into a “project” draft pick. He’s definitely not a competitor on an NFL level. I wish him well but doubt he’ll go in the first round.
First round lol
Nor Elle is quickly becoming Dabo’s scrotal nemesis.
Sounds reasonable to me! Players with a high mental ability might overcome a more highly ATHLETICALLY rated player that does dumb stuff! I’d rather have a team of high mentality guys that were 3/4’s than a boat load of dumbass 5’s!
