Florida State Seminoles football already has its new offensive coordinator.
According to Josh Newberg of Noles247, offensive line coach Alex Atkins will be promoted to offensive coordinator following the departure of Kenny Dillingham to Oregon.
Atkins has been key in head coach Mike Norvell’s efforts to re-establish a floor to the program after poor recruiting, development, and attrition decimated the offensive line unit near the end of Jimbo Fisher’s tenure in Tallahassee.
FSU’s OL play was to some extent covered up in recent seasons with the indomitable Dalvin Cook and uber-talented Cam Akers, though not even Akers could overcome the offensive line play issues in the 2018 season especially.
