An analyst from College Sports Network suggested that only one current SEC head coach would consider leaving their position for the Florida State job, dismissing the possibility that Vanderbilt's Clark Lea would make the move.
The report, published on November 4, 2026, highlighted Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz as a name in the conversation but did not specify which SEC coach the analyst believed would be the lone candidate willing to join the Seminoles.
The commentary comes amid ongoing speculation surrounding the Florida State head coaching position.
