## Key points

- Florida State is searching for a head coach after firing Mike Norvell.
- Analyst Brooks Austin points to several coordinators as future candidates.
- Utah’s Kevin McGiven is scoring nearly 39 points per game.

## Summary

Florida State’s decision to fire Mike Norvell after a 3-5 start has opened one of college football’s prominent head-coaching jobs. The article argues that the next successful hire may come from the coordinator ranks rather than from an established head coach, drawing on Kentucky’s appointment of Oregon offensive coordinator Will Stein as an example.

Analyst Brooks Austin highlights several coordinators as potential future head coaches. He praises Utah offensive coordinator Kevin McGiven’s varied attack and near-39 points per game, while noting doubts about how patient fans at a major programme would be with his system. Austin also names Florida’s Buster Faulkner, Georgia defensive coordinator Glenn Schumann and Indiana defensive coordinator Bryant Haines; the supplied article text ends before completing its final candidate.
