3 burning conference realignment questions Mike Norvell can expect at ACC Media Days 2024 

Mike Norvell is scheduled to speak to the media during the first days of the ACC Media Days. The Florida State coach led his team to the conference title with an undefeated record last season, but they were controversially left out of the College Football Playoff.

While this remains a subject ahead of next season, Norvell is expected to answer more questions on a different issue entirely. With the Seminoles making the move to exit the ACC this offseason, here's a look at three burning conference realignment questions Norvell might face in the ACC Media Days.

3 burning conference realignment questions for Mike Norvell in the ACC Media Days

#1. Florida State lawsuit

Following its controversial exclusion from the College Football Playoff last season, Florida State filed a lawsuit against the ACC to leave the conference seamlessly without paying the huge exit fee worth $120 million and be free from the league's grant of rights.

Since then, the ACC has filed a counter-complaint against the Seminoles and the legal battle has continued to intensify. Clemson has also filed a separate lawsuit against the conference, creating significant unrest within the conference.

Mike Norvell is expected to answer many questions about the lawsuit filed by the school and what the feelings look like within the program ahead of the 2024 college football season.

#2. Scheduling in the expanded ACC

The ACC will add three new teams ahead of the 2024 college football season. The trio of Stanford, Cal and SMU reached an agreement with the conference last summer and will be officially making the realignment move this offseason, increasing the membership to 18.

Stanford and Cal are located on the West Coast, which adds a degree of challenge to scheduling road games. Beginning next season, teams in the league will be required to travel coast-to-coast for away games.

While the ACC has designed the schedule to ensure some ease for members, Mike Norvell is expected to answer some questions on the feelings around the scheduling.

#3. Future anticipation for the Seminoles

With Florida State pushing intensively to leave the ACC through legal means, the team's future remains uncertain.

Mike Norvell will answer a host of questions on what kind of future he hopes the Seminoles will have. There's still some uncertainty about their landing spot and Norvell might get some questions regarding this.
