The Florida State football team's defense has massively underachieved the past three seasons, finishing no better than No. 80 nationally. And new coordinator Adam Fuller enters Year Two on the hot seat after his defense finished with a program-worst ranking of No. 108 in 2020.
The coaches have endeavored to flip the roster in hopes of reversing FSU's defensive misfortunes.

Between the 2021 class signees and transfers, the Seminoles have added 15 new players on that side of the ball (and there could be more coming).
