Jeremy Pruitt, the Alabama defensive backs coach, will reportedly take over as the new defensive coordinator at Florida State.

Both rivals.com and sports247.com are reporting the news, and Noles head coach Jimbo Fisher, while not confirming the news Sunday, did strongly indicate the reports' validity.

"I will announce it when all things are appropriate for all parties. But we're in real good shape," Fisher said.

The Seminoles need a replacement for Mark Stoops, now the head coach at Kentucky.
