Brad Vanderglas

Biography

Brad Vanderglas is in his third season as an assistant coach in 2026 after he was elevated in July 2023 after one season as Florida State’s volunteer assistant coach. Vanderglas has helped guide FSU to back-to-back NCAA Super Regional appearances in 2024-25, one of five programs to achieve that feat, with a berth in the College World Series in 2024. Florida State again reached the Super Regionals in 2025 after a runner-up ACC finish and No. 2 seed at the conference tournament, both the team’s best since 2014. Alex Lodise won the 2025 Dick Howser Trophy as the nation’s top amateur player, FSU’s first since 2008, and was named the ACC Player and Defensive Player of the Year. Lodise and Jamie Arnold were named consensus All-Americans, the second consecutive year the program has reached that mark, as Arnold was the team’s first multiple-time All-American in consecutive years since 2021-22. Arnold was selected 11th overall in the 2025 MLB Draft to headline a program-record 11 draft selections, a total which led the country. The Seminoles’ highest overall draft pick since 2008 and third-highest pitcher, Arnold gives the team three first-round picks in two years, the third time that has happened and first since 1994-95. In his first season as a full-time assistant in 2024, Vanderglas helped FSU back to the NCAA Tournament and College World Series. Two position players earned All-America honors and five were picked in the MLB draft, all in the first four rounds. All-Americans James T
