Mike Norvell sent shock waves throughout college football with the hiring of former UCF head coach Gus Malzahn as offensive coordinator. Norvell has now chosen the next defensive coordinator for the Florida State Seminoles.
Tony White is heading to Tallahassee, per several sources.
White spent the last two seasons at Nebraska coordinating the Blackshirt defense. He was a Broyles Award nominee in 2023 and 2022 (for the Syracuse Orangemen), is considered among college football's best defensive coordinators, and is a strong recruiter. At every stop he’s made, players remark about White genuinely caring for them and being a great teacher and developer.
