Reports: FSU set to hire DC Tony White from Nebraska
Nebraska defensive coordinator Tony White is set to join Florida State in the same capacity, ESPN and Rivals reported Monday.
Cornhuskers defensive line coach Terrance Knighton will join White at FSU, according to the Rivals report.
White, who spent the past two seasons at Nebraska, will replace Adam Fuller, fired as DC by head coach Mike Norvell last month. Fuller was one of three assistant coaches fired in the aftermath of a 52-3 loss to Notre Dame, including offensive coordinator/offensive line coach Alex Atkins.
White, 45, was also the DC at Syracuse (2020-22) and Arizona State (2019).
It was reported over the weekend that Gus Malzahn resigned as head coach at UCF to become the new OC at FSU next season.
FSU lost to rival Florida 31-11 on Saturday to complete a 2-10 season.
