You knew we couldn't let this week slide without talking about THE word. You know the one. Mediocre.

Four-star recruit Izayah Vickers visits FSU spring practice, a message board LOSES their minds over a misquote, and suddenly there's a bunch of damage control on social media and a podcast. Meanwhile, ESPN is out there using the word "mediocre" in the same sentence as Florida State like it's nothing.

But wait — Israel Abrams, the nation's No. 3 QB, also visited this week and said the Noles "did not disappoint." So which narrative wins? Let's break it all down.

Tonight:
🗣️ The misquote — who ran it, why it matters, and why the FSU fanbase needs to breathe
📺 ESPN's "mediocre" narrative — this is why it's always Screw ESPN Eternally
🏈 Spring practice is back, first scrimmage is SATURDAY — 50+ new faces and Norvell on the hot seat
🎯 Israel Abrams loved his visit — signs of life on the recruiting trail
⚾ FSU Baseball got SHUT OUT 5-0 by Florida — 16 Ks, zero runs
🥎 Softball on an 18-game win streak and not getting NEARLY enough love

We are NOT mediocre. We are Garnet & Old. Big difference.
