@MyronRolle This is amazing! I am a Parent Educator and serve families that are expecting babies up until kindergarten. Itโs called the Parents as Teachers program. We go to the home and take books, talk to them about child development and provide resources. They would make a great partner.
@FSU2Times I live in North Alabama. I have the Alabama-FSU tags(they are beautiful BTW) so people bring it up in conversation all the time. I feel like it just feels different this year for them. Most have empathy for those boys who laid it all out on the field.

What happened to FSU is disappointing, and I know we're all mad, BUT I would hate for what this team DID accomplish to get lost in the moment. They put in the hard work to bring this program back to where it is today. Unfortunately, it won't end like we all hoped because they got robbed of an opportunity, but this team still deserves to be celebrated.
We got to enjoy watching an undefeated season in which they beat down a top 5 LSU team, beat Clemson in Death Valley, beat both rivals for a second year in a row, and then went on to win a conference title. Everyone who watched a game inside Doak got to see a victory. We sold out Doak for 5 of 6 home games and dominated in TV viewership. Their success on the field is a large part of why we have a top 3 recruiting class, too.
They put FSU back on the map, and their work won't go unnoticed. The ripple effect of their success will spread farther than the opportunity that was stolen from them. They have also been easy to cheer for with so much success on and off the field. This team overcame adversity, played with heart, and won with class. We have a truly amazing group of leaders, coaches, staff members, players, and fans. The #NoleFamily is like no other.
I have no doubt this team will be ready for the next challenge, even if it isn't the one they deserve. But no matter what happens in the bowl game, which may look different than a playoff game would have, this team did everything they could that was within their control.
On behalf of Nole fans everywhere, I just want to take a minute to appreciate the work this team put in and what they did for this program. Thank you to everyone who played a part in an amazing season! Thank you, Jordan Travis, for your years of hard work and dedication. This is not your fault, and the committee's mistake shouldn't make you feel that way. Thank you, Mike Norvell, for bringing this program back to where it belongs. Let's go build a machine that they can't deny. ๐ค
I hate that this team won't get the opportunity to compete for a championship, but I promise in the eyes of Nole Nation, the legacy of the 2023 Florida State Seminoles will not be forgotten!
Go Noles!! #UNCONQUERED
