Football:
Ashton Daniels and Mike Norvell were guest of the Seminoles Sports Network Podcast in a celebratory Hall of Fame & Parents Weekend celebration:
FSU Football is a six to seven touchdown favorite this weekend; which
is welcome news for a Florida State defense that has only had very few brief moments of success this weekend. Few defenses need a get right game as much as Florida State’s unit right now:
While FSU should have no problem with Central Arkansas this weekend there are plenty of other competitive games that can have you glued to the couch.
Ahead of his Hall of Fame induction ceremony this weekend, it’s a good time to take a look at Dave Hart’s legacy as an athletic director. If Michael Alford’s replacement can come in and lead an era of similar success, then Florida State Athletics will be in a better long-term position than they have been in a long time.
I agree Danny, the writing has been on the wall since the snub but I see zero reason to interpret this report any other way:
All Sports:
Kyleene Filimaua dominated the Hurricanes last night:
Cross Country hits the road for the first time this fall; they’ll be in Colombia to take on the Missouri Tigers.
FSU Soccer has been off since September 11th; they return to the pitch this Sunday at Louisville as conference play resumes for the Seminoles:
Pro Noles:
ESPN ranked the top-100 NBA players for the upcoming season and coming in at No.17 is Scottie Barnes:
17. Scottie Barnes
F | Toronto Raptors
Age: 25
2025 NBA Rank: 30Barnes has developed from the 2022 Rookie of the Year to a two-time All-Star entering his sixth season. He has been the do-everything engine for the Raptors on offense and defense, finishing fifth in the Defensive Player of the Year vote while leading the team in assists and scoring nearly 20 points per game. This season he will join Kawhi Leonard as the nucleus of a Raptors squad that is trying to make the leap from play-in scrappy competitors to playoffs contenders. — Snellings
Signature stat: Barnes led his team in rebounds, assists, steals and blocks last season. Since 2017-18, LeBron James (2021-22) and Nikola Jokic (2017-18) are the only other players to accomplish the feat.
Fantasy projection: 18.8 PTS, 7.7 REB, 6.0 AST, 1.4 STL
