Florida State’s new coordinators, Kenny Dillingham and Adam Fuller, spoke to the media for the first time as members of the ’Noles coaching staff. Fuller spoke about working with Mike Norvell and the kind of defense he wants to build in Tallahassee and the traits and characteristics he wants his unit to exhibit. Dillingham spoke about the new style of offense FSU will run, working with Norvell, relationships with coaches and players, and more. One thing that tied both coordinators’ pressers was being on the same page.

Gabe Nabers and Jaiden Lars-Woodbey won some hardware:
