Mike Norvell is heading into a “do or die” season with the Florida State Seminoles.
As such, he can use all the help he can get on the coaching front, so he’s gone out and added an assistant to his staff with elite experience.
That would be Tom Herman, who will be joining Norvell and the Seminoles.
Herman, 51, is the former head coach of the Houston Cougars, Texas Longhorns and Florida Atlantic Owls.
FAU fired him during his second season with the Owls after starting 0-6 in AAC play and 2-8 overall. In his brief stint with FAU, Herman went 6-16 as the head coach, which included an abysmal 3-13 AAC record.
Nonetheless, he’s now back in Florida, but this time, it’s in a support role for Norvell and the Seminoles.
