Speaking of revenue, I love how indignant FSU's AD is acting. Michael Alford. Named the Noles AD in Dec. of 2021. He was previously the President and CEO of Seminole Boosters, Inc.

My point is, hey Mikey, you have been AD for 18 months. I know you're super excited that the Noles will be preseason Top 10 for the first time in a decade this coming Fall. Good for you. I hope this surge is not a one or two-year thing. Mike Norvel was a dead man walking 12 months ago and he will be again if he losses to LSU and Clemson again this year. Let alone if the Gators rise up.

Let's not forget, FSU is atop the list of biggest disappointments in recent times, especially in the ACC. From 2017 to present, the Noles are 36-36 overall, 21-27 in conference. This is reason #1 that the ACC is seen as a struggling league.

So, my advice to Mikey is this: Stop acting like a booster and start acting like an AD.

You know what boosters do and say when they suck? They are immature and therefore make excuses. They might say, "hey, we sort of suck and you beat us, but we make more money than you do."

You know what good ADs do and say? They look in the mirror and understand that they can affect positive change, first within their own programs, but beyond that, within the conference.

Mikey, get your own house in order (remember, your hoops team went 9-23 this year and set a school record for losses) before you start blaming others for your struggles. It is especially unsightly. Amateur hour if you ask me.
