World Sports · 12:12:42 - Sunday, 8 November 2026

Georgia's defensive coordinator has emerged as one of the leading candidates for the head coaching vacancy at Florida State University, according to a report from UGA Wire on Wednesday.

The report, authored by James Morgan, indicates that the Bulldogs' defensive play-caller is under serious consideration by Florida State athletic officials as they search for a replacement following the departure of the previous head coach.

No official announcement has been made, and the coordinator's name was not disclosed in the initial report. Florida State's program, a historic powerhouse in the Atlantic Coast Conference, is seeking to return to national championship contention.

Georgia's defense has ranked among the nation's elite in recent seasons, bolstering the coordinator's reputation as a rising star in the coaching ranks.
