FSU offensive coordinator Kenny Dillingham gets emotional when speaking about his players

You can't say these coaches don't have a love for their guys.

Florida State has had a wild ride of a season overall in 2021. The 'Noles started off the season going 0-4 but then when on a 3-0 winning streak. The Seminoles were so close to pulling off the upset in their season opener but lost in overtime then the next week were upset at home off of a Hail Mary in Doak in September. 

This team has had a lot of ups and downs throughout the season but one thing has stood out. The fight this team has had through games. Players have fought for one another, held each other accountable during plays avoiding mistakes, and kept their heads high when going down in games.

Where is this new culture coming from directly? Mike Norvell and the Seminoles' coaching staff. One of those coaches that is helping inject this culture into the team is Kenny Dillingham, Florida State's offensive coordinator.

"Yeah, I mean... Special, special group of guys. Stuck together and umm, yeah. I mean. it's pretty, pretty cool."
