FSU football head coach Mike Norvell spoke with the media after Thursday’s practice about a variety of things.

One of the things addressed was the status of senior linebacker Emmett Rice. Rice decided to come back in 2021 since the 2020 season didn’t count toward eligibility.

The team’s second-leading tackler over the past two years and the team leader in tackles for loss in 2020 will be for an “extended period” according to Norvell.
