Reports: Interim defensive coordinator, linebackers coach Randy Shannon not returning to FSU football

The 2024 football season was sheer hell for the Florida State Seminoles. The cratering of the program this season practically guaranteed that staffing changes would be made.

Randy Shannon, co-defensive coordinator and linebackers coach, is now among them. Today, Noles247 and Warchant have both reported that Shannon won’t be returning to the staff.

The defensive staff will be undergoing a makeover with the addition of defensive coordinator Tony White and defensive line coach Terrance Knighton. Shannon becomes the third defensive coach to be fired/moved to a new role along with Adam Fuller and Odell Haggins.
