Sean Spencer has a pretty impressive coaching resume at the college level. As Vanderbilt’s defensive line coach from 2011-13, he helped the normally downtrodden Commodores rank among the nation’s top-25 in total defense in each season.
He then followed James Franklin to Penn State and worked with the Nittany Lions’ defensive front. They led the nation in sacks in two of his six seasons in Happy Valley. They posted more than 40 sacks in three consecutive seasons for the first time since the mid-2000s. Carl Nassib broke the school record with 15 ½ sacks in 2015.
After working for the New York Giants for the past two seasons, Spencer is back in the college game as Florida’s co-defensive coordinator and defensive line coach.
