Florida State beat writer for the Tallahassee Democrat, Curt Weiler joins us to talk about the success of Noles basketball and more. The Seminoles are on the rise in the latest men's basketball polls and are looking at the top seed in the ACC Tournament. In the latest Jerry Palm Bracketology from CBS Sports Florida State is a No. 3 seed replacing Virginia as the top conference team.

Despite the challenges imposed by the pandemic and limited attendance by fans Florida State is creating excitement with this year's team. Reflecting on the contrast between Noles football and basketball.

Is it too early early to say that Leonard Hamilton has built a dynasty? There's an asterisk here and Weiler explains what Florida State needs to do to lay claim to that label.
