Florida State Announces Veteran NFL Coach Update After Mike Norvell’s Firing

Florida State is adding veteran defensive coach Paul Pasqualoni to its staff following Mike Norvell’s firing. The former Syracuse and UConn head coach brings decades of college football and NFL experience as the Seminoles navigate changes on the defensive side. According to ESPN’s Pete Thamel, Pasqualoni will join Florida State next week as a defensive analyst. His arrival follows the departures of defensive coordinator Tony White and safeties coach Evan Cooper, with interim defensive coordinator Ernie Sims now overseeing the defense.
