Mike Norvell's buyout details: Here's how much it will cost FSU to fire head coach
Here's a look at Norvell's contract and buyout status.
Florida State head coach Mike Norvell's buyout details reveal a hefty price tag for the Seminoles to fire him. After a 13-win season in 2023, including an undefeated regular season and ACC championship, the University extended Norvell's contract to eight years worth over $84 million. This deal, Norvell's second in less than a year, locks him into Florida State through the 2031 season.
Currently, Norvell earns $10.3 million annually, with a $150,000 salary increase per year. His buyout stands at $46.7 million if FSU terminates his contract prematurely. Only two other coaches in college football history have faced a larger buyout upon being fired: Jimbo Fisher at Texas A&M and Brian Kelly at LSU.
