Florida State quarterbacks coach and co-offensive coordinator Randy Sanders has accepted the head coaching position at East Tennessee State according to multiple reports.

Sanders is a Tennessee native, and played (1984-1988) and coached (1989-2005) at the University of Tennessee.

Sanders has been at FSU for the past five seasons starting in 2013.

Despite the co-offensive coordinator tag, Sanders only consistently called plays during the 2015 season.

After Fisher left, Sanders was the primary playcaller for the Seminoles' final regular season game against Louisiana-Monroe.

As quarterbacks coach, Sanders was directly involved in the development of Jameis Winston, Sean Maguire, Deondre Francois, and James Blackman.

He is the third assistant coach to leave Florida State this offseason joining Tim Brewster and Jay Graham, who joined former head coach Fisher at Texas A&M.

Sanders was not expected to return to FSU after this season.

It is unclear if he will remain on staff for the bowl game.
