With support from school administrators, Norvell has pledged to make “fundamental changes” to meet the program's championship standard.

“Coach Norvell embraces our support in that process and agrees that success must be achieved,” school president Dr. Richard McCullough said Sunday in a statement. “He continues to demonstrate an unwavering belief in this program's future, and so do we.”

McCullough said the decision “reflects a unified commitment to competing in the rapidly evolving landscape of college football, while maintaining continuity within the program.”
