Q&A with Black & Gold Banneret: What should FSU fans expect from Gus Malzahn?

When Florida State began its search for an offensive coordinator following the firing of Alex Atkins, there were plenty of candidates floated ranging from up-and-comers to established names.

The latter was the right guess, though nobody could have expected who that name would be.

Within 24 hours of the UCF Knights closing out the season (a 28-14 loss to Utah), it was reported that head coach Gus Malzahn would be resigning from his position to join Mike Norvell’s staff at Florida State as offensive coordinator. The news became official on Monday when Norvell welcomed his former boss to Tallahassee:

“I’m extremely excited to have Gus Malzahn join our staff at Florida State,” Norvell said.
