The Seminole Booster Tour is officially OFF for this offseason…

NO TOUR FOR YOU. 🫵

What does this mean for FSU? Is this strategic? Financial? Or is this just the higher ups reading the room? 👀

Tonight, we break down:
- Why the Booster Tour isn’t happening this year
- What it could signal about the program in 2026

AND in the most Florida State plot twist ever…

The Savannah Bananas are coming to Doak Campbell this Saturday.

Yes. The dancing, backflipping, baseball-globetrotter chaos agents are about to turn Bobby Bowden Field into a circus...We’re here for it. 🍌

🎶 Come, mister TALLY man, TALLY me banana
🎶 Daylight come and me wan' go home

Is this the most fun thing to happen in Doak this offseason?
Is this better than a spring game?

Party on, Noles. 🤘

Florida State was just ranked the #1 Party School in America…Partying like its 1993.🎶

And this week? The athletic department decided to celebrate properly.

🏀 Basketball just stacked big wins — including a comeback over Boston College and a dominant performance against Virginia Tech. The timing? Impeccable.
⚾ Baseball opened the season with a series win and a few run rules.
🥎 Softball is battling elite competition and proving once again it belongs in the national conversation.

So you're saying FSU isn't JUST a “party school”?

It’s a LEGACY episode.

🦀 Jameis Winston speaks on the state of college football and reveals his reported $1M+ donation. As if NoleNation could love this guy even more...

⛳ Charlie Woods commits to FSU Golf over his father’s alma mater of Stanford. That’s right. Tiger’s son said, “I’ll take Tallahassee.” The Nole bloodline grows stronger. Charlie Woods, ya'll...

We break down:
• What Charlie’s commitment means for FSU Golf
• Why Jameis will always be a True Nole
• Men’s Basketball letting UVA slip through their fingers (pain.)
• Baseball season starts TOMORROW. Yes, it’s finally here.

It’s pride.
It’s pain.
It’s Portal Season Adjacent Energy.
It’s a TRUE NOLE ➡️ NEW NOLE kind of night.

Is Florida State actually broke… or is the internet bad at reading financial reports?
Sportico called FSU the “Debt King,” Gus Malzahn retired, and chaos immediately followed.

It was a busy week in college football.

Sportico dropped a headline claiming Florida State became college sports’ “Debt King” in FY25, and Seminole Twitter went into full panic mode while rival fans celebrated like they just won something meaningful. 💸😬

Oh — and Gus Malzahn retired, quietly closing the book on another coaching chapter that somehow still turned into an FSU discourse moment.

On this episode of Garnet & Old, we break it all down:
- What the Sportico “FSU debt” report actually says vs. how it’s being misused online
- Why debt ≠ broke (and how modern college athletics really works)
- How FSU’s facilities, revenue, and realignment strategy fit into the big picture
- What Malzahn’s retirement means for the ACC (and why FSU fans are… unaffected)

If you read the headline and yelled “WE’RE FINISHED” — relax.
If you celebrated — also relax.

The ACC (and maybe the football gods themselves) have unveiled Florida State’s 2026 football schedule… and buddy, it is NOT for the weak (or the weekend, get it?). Road trips, heavy hitters, and zero mercy. We break down why this slate feels like a punishment and what it means for FSU’s necessity to GET MARKEDLY BETTER.

Meanwhile, Recruiting Junior Days are bringing good vibes, blue-chip smiles, and plenty of “We’re in a great spot” quotes — but will any of it actually matter once NIL bags start flying and other programs hit the gas?

Plus, FSU men’s basketball is playing more consistently … yet the wins still aren’t happening. Is this progress, bad luck, roster limitations, or just hoops heartbreak Seminole-style?

Choose NOT to dwell #NoleFamily... FSU positives exist — on the field, in the trenches, and across the university.

🐐 Peter Warrick is officially a College Football Hall of Famer — a long-overdue recognition for one of the greatest ever to wear the Garnet & Gold.

↩️ While others may be leaving, not Kevin Wynn. Back on the roster, back in the mix.

🏥 Off the field, the FSU Health project gets the green light from the Tallahassee City Commission — a major step forward for Florida State’s long-term growth and competitiveness.

Join Ryan and Vince tonight for some sorely needed Seminole optimism!

The Transfer Portal giveth… and the Portal taketh away.

This week on Garnet & Old, we break down the constant comings and goings from the Noles 2026 roster — including the on again, off again, on again departure of Earl Little Jr., dealing with twins, some sneaky-good trench additions, and what it all means for next season's FSU campaign.

Is this controlled chaos or just chaos chaos? Has Norvell gotten the picture? And will the new front office setup be the low-key MVP of the offseason?

Plus:
🔥 Has Ryan irrationally panicked about anyone?
🧠 Why is Vince weirdly calm?
🏈 Why this portal cycle might be “addition by subtraction” in disguise
