What is Mike Norvell’s Buyout? FSU Fires Head Coach, Defensive Coordinator Tony White

The Florida State Seminoles‘ patience finally broke Sunday as they announced the firing of both head coach Mike Norvell and defensive coordinator Tony White. While the program cuts ties with a regime that spiraled to a 10-22 record over the past two-plus seasons, the financial damage left in the wake is staggering. What is Mike Norvell’s Buyout? FSU is on the hook for roughly $50.3 million to fire Norvell, which is subject to offset and mitigation if he lands another job, per Pete Thamel. Under his contract terms, he is owed 85% of his remaining salary through the 2031 season.
