Lead Story

Former Houston offensive coordinator Kendal Briles doesn’t appear to be the only assistant bringing his talents from the Lone Star State to Tallahassee.

According to reports, offensive line coach Randy Clements will be joining Briles and head coach Willie Taggart’s staff at Florida State. Like Briles, Clements had previously coached at Baylor.

Houston offensive line coach Randy Clements is expected to join Kendal Briles at Florida State, according to a source. Clements will oversee a Seminoles offensive line that has significantly underperformed for years, so this is a very significant hire…. https://t.co/Wsd9oB935y

What that means for current FSU offensive line coach Greg Frey is unclear. Some reports have suggested that both will coach the line with one focusing on the interior guards and center and the other on tackles. FSU’s offensive line was the single-biggest sore spot in 2018.
