Florida State University has hired Daniel Parker to spearhead the search for the Seminoles' next head football coach, according to a report from the Tallahassee Democrat. The move comes as the program seeks to fill its top coaching position following the conclusion of the 2026 season.
Parker, who brings extensive experience in collegiate athletics administration, will work closely with the athletic department to identify and evaluate candidates for the high-profile role. The search process is expected to begin immediately, with the university aiming to have a new head coach in place before the start of the 2027 season.
Florida State's football program, a perennial contender in the Atlantic Coast Conference, has won three national championships and produced numerous NFL players. The hiring of a dedicated search consultant underscores the importance the university places on finding the right leader for one of college football's most storied programs.
