FSU expects to hire a new DB coach from the Big 10. Is he any good?

Multiple outlets are reporting that FSU football plans to hire Blue Adams as its next defensive backs coach. FSU didn’t retain Patrick Surtain Sr. and looked to hire Brandon Harris last week before he opted to go to the rival Florida Gators at the last minute.

Blue Adams is from South Florida and played at Cincinnati before playing in the NFL for a few years. He has spent time with the Miami Dolphins, Northern Illinois, West Virginia, USF, Oregon State, and, lastly, Michigan State.

Adams has spent time coaching in several types of defenses over the years, from 4-2-5, 4-3, and 3-4.
