Warchant TV: FSU coordinators post scrimmage interviews

On Monday morning both FSU coordinators shared their takeaways following a pivotal second preseason scrimmage.
FSU defensive coordinator Tony White was blunt in his assessment of the defense saying several players the staff is relying on are not meeting expectations.
** Full summary from White, Malzahn press conference **
“I think the guys who process correct, you can see them getting better and making more plays,” said White. “You’re trying to bring everyone up…people were counting on you and you didn’t show up like you had to.”
FSU offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn said he is seeing day to day growth from the offensive line and that after two scrimmages it’s becoming more clear who will be relied upon on offense.
Florida State returns to practice tomorrow morning for its 11th session of the preseason.
