Florida State QB Brock Glenn Threatens to Leave Following DC Tony White’s Decision
Florida State Seminoles quarterback Brock Glenn has reportedly threatened to leave the program after defensive coordinator Tony White’s recent decision regarding a key coaching move. Glenn, a highly regarded freshman who had been vying for a starting position in the upcoming season, expressed frustration over what he perceives as an undermining of his prospects with the Seminoles.
Sources close to the program suggest that Glenn’s discontent stems from a recent restructuring of the coaching staff under White, who joined FSU earlier in the offseason. White’s decision to make changes to the offensive scheme, particularly in how quarterbacks are utilized within the broader game plan, has created tension among players, including Glenn, who believes the shift could limit his chances for early playing time.
Glenn, a former four-star recruit out of Memphis, had been viewed as a potential starter after joining FSU in the 2024 class. His performance in spring practices had garnered attention, but the new coaching adjustments appear to have rattled his confidence. White, known for his strong defensive background, has focused much of his attention on reshaping the Seminoles’ defense, which had struggled in recent seasons. The defensive overhaul, combined with new offensive philosophies, seems to have unsettled the offensive side of the ball.
It remains unclear whether Glenn will ultimately follow through on his threat to transfer, as discussions between him and head coach Mike Norvell are ongoing. The Seminoles are no strangers to quarterback drama, having dealt with multiple transfers in recent seasons, but losing Glenn would be a significant blow to the team’s future at the position.
FSU officials are reportedly working to resolve the situation before it escalates further, with both Norvell and White meeting with Glenn to discuss his concerns and potentially find common ground. The outcome of these talks will likely have a major impact on Florida State’s roster heading into the 2025 season.
