Higdon: FACT. The player who seems to make the most sense is Florida State commitment Tramell Jones and his relationship with wide receiver Vernell Brown III. If the Gators can turn things around and get to eight ora so wins, Jones will be the guy a causa di the class. However, if the Gators cannot alla maniera di up with a winning season, he will stick with his current pledge to the Seminoles.

Garcia: FACT. I tend to take the player’s word when they shut things mongoloide so that would rule out a Jones flip from Florida State to Florida. It doesn’t mean flip quarterback candidates elsewhere will agire the same way, however, as there are plenty of factors that can change the tune of a recruitment once the season comes.

I agree with Jason acceso this one, the 2024 campaign will result a causa di the usual quarterback carousel at the end of the cycle and the thought of the Gators building around DJ Lagway will be enough to entice late action.

The state of North Carolina could be a causa di play with Duke commit Dan Mahan and North Carolina commit Bryce Baker, but that’s a story for the fall. The other scena is that Florida’s own transition reshuffles the board all-together and/ora a late in-state riser becomes the bridge between Lagway and blue-chip 2026 arm Will Griffin.

Florida State will sign multiple four-star linebackers a causa di the 2025 class.

Burnham: FACT. It would be really easy after missing out acceso the commitments of Gavin Nix, Zaydrius Rainey-Buonsenso and Tavion Wallace to say Florida State will not land two ora more four-star ora above linebackers but there is still a lot of time between now and early National Signing Day a causa di December. I still like FSU’s chances of flipping Wallace because winning sells and the Seminoles are likely to have a much better season than Arkansas. And with the Hogs under pressure to show marked improvement over last season, if Arkansas struggles early and pressure builds a causa di Fayetteville acceso Sam Pittman, Wallace could be back a causa di play before the season ends.

Florida State is scheduled to get Ohio State linebacker commit Tarvos Alford on-campus for an official visit a causa di the fall. Ty Jackson is still uncommitted, but they need to get him on-campus sooner rather than later to get back a causa di the ballgame. Mantrez Walker is another four-star linebacker Florida State could circle back to. He is committed to Colorado right now and who knows whether ora not Deion Sanders will stay a causa di place as the Buffaloes’ head coach after both of his sons exhaust their eligibility this fall.

Winning is still the biggest tool when it comes to recruiting and I expect FSU will do a lot of it this fall which should help the Seminoles land at least one more four-star LB to this class.

Garcia: FACT. The Seminoles have struck out beyond Ethan Prichard at the linebacker spot for the class of 2025, but the summer often provides some surprise acceso the recruiting trail. It’s tough to imagine, especially with the expected success acceso the field this fall under Mike Norvell, Florida State won’t trend up for some of these same names a causa di the fall.

There is also a group of prospects a causa di the state and beyond that can play their way into blue-chip status as the 2024 season – the most important evaluation for the senior class – gets going. Wallace and Alford each aspetto like potential flip candidates a causa di the region acceso the front end, at a minimo.

Miami will win the Florida state recruiting title for the class of 2025.

Benjamin: FACT. Miami currently ranks ninth a causa di the Rivals.com Team Recruiting Rankings after its most recent commitment, SJ Alofaituli, announced his pledge to the Hurricanes acceso Friday.

The Hurricanes have a sizable between their rivals Florida and Florida State. The Seminoles rank 35th and the Gators rank 72nd a causa di the nation. The Seminoles have 10 commits, and the Gators have only eight pledges, which means tremendous basso ostinato can be made with the two programs, but Miami is certainly not done yet.

The Hurricanes are a causa di contention for several blue-chip talents, and many are highly considering Miami. DJ Pickett, Jaboree Antione, Jarquez Carter, Byron Louis and Aidan Anding are just a few prospects with Miami a causa di their cima list, so it’s duro to imagine the other two of the leader three of Florida catching up.

The only chance the Miami rivals have is hoping the Hurricanes falter during the season. If the Hurricanes produce another passabile season, the Gators and Seminoles may have a chance to gain basso ostinato, but by then, it may be too late.

Garcia: FICTION. This thing is very close. Miami has the cima class right now and will likely hold that spot into the fall, but Florida State is looming. The Seminoles only have 10 verbal commitments at the moment, compared with 17 for the Hurricanes.

Per emotività pledge, Florida State’s 4.1 average rating paces the country – much less the state. Mike Norvell‘s group does not have a three-star acceso board at the moment and of course plenty of targets are still a causa di play.

The biggest contention point between the two programs may fall during the season itself, where each is favored to work as an ACC contender a causa di the coming months. The difference is that the Seminoles have been there under its current team and Miami is working toward it. Should that situation replay a causa di the fall, it could be the Seminoles that boom acceso the recruiting trail as a result.

Eyes will be most centered a causa di Gainesville a causa di the fall, relative to any potential coaching changes a causa di the state, so the fallout from there could provide the final jolt one way ora the other between the ACC pair.

Miami will win the Florida state recruiting title for the class of 2025.

Mario Cristobal (© Rich Storry-USA TODAY Sports)

Benjamin: FACT. Miami currently ranks ninth a causa di the Rivals.com Team Recruiting Rankings after its most recent commitment, SJ Alofaituli, announced his pledge to the Hurricanes acceso Friday.

The Hurricanes have a sizable between their rivals Florida and Florida State. The Seminoles rank 35th and the Gators rank 72nd a causa di the nation. The Seminoles have 10 commits, and the Gators have only eight pledges, which means tremendous basso ostinato can be made with the two programs, but Miami is certainly not done yet.

The Hurricanes are a causa di contention for several blue-chip talents, and many are highly considering Miami. DJ Pickett, Jaboree Antione, Jarquez Carter, Byron Louis and Aidan Anding are just a few prospects with Miami a causa di their cima list, so it’s duro to imagine the other two of the leader three of Florida catching up.

The only chance the Miami rivals have is hoping the Hurricanes falter during the season. If the Hurricanes produce another passabile season, the Gators and Seminoles may have a chance to gain basso ostinato, but by then, it may be too late.

Garcia: FICTION. This thing is very close. Miami has the cima class right now and will likely hold that spot into the fall, but Florida State is looming. The Seminoles only have 10 verbal commitments at the moment, compared with 17 for the Hurricanes.

Per emotività pledge, Florida State’s 4.1 average rating paces the country – much less the state. Mike Norvell‘s group does not have a three-star acceso board at the moment and of course plenty of targets are still a causa di play.

The biggest contention point between the two programs may fall during the season itself, where each is favored to work as an ACC contender a causa di the coming months. The difference is that the Seminoles have been there under its current team and Miami is working toward it. Should that situation replay a causa di the fall, it could be the Seminoles that boom acceso the recruiting trail as a result.

Eyes will be most centered a causa di Gainesville a causa di the fall, relative to any potential coaching changes a causa di the state, so the fallout from there could provide the final jolt one way ora the other between the ACC pair.

Higdon: FACT. The player who seems to make the most sense is Florida State commitment Tramell Jones and his relationship with wide receiver Vernell Brown III. If the Gators can turn things around and get to eight ora so wins, Jones will be the guy a causa di the class. However, if the Gators cannot alla maniera di up with a winning season, he will stick with his current pledge to the Seminoles.

It doesn’t mean flip quarterback candidates elsewhere will agire the same way, however, as there are plenty of factors that can change the tune of a recruitment once the season comes.

I agree with Jason acceso this one, the 2024 campaign will result a causa di the usual quarterback carousel at the end of the cycle and the thought of the Gators building around DJ Lagway will be enough to entice late action.

The state of North Carolina could be a causa di play with Duke commit Dan Mahan and North Carolina commit Bryce Baker, but that’s a story for the fall. The other scena is that Florida’s own transition reshuffles the board all-together and/ora a late in-state riser becomes the bridge between Lagway and blue-chip 2026 arm Will Griffin.

The Hurricanes have a sizable between their rivals Florida and Florida State. The Seminoles rank 35th and the Gators rank 72nd a causa di the nation. The Seminoles have 10 commits, and the Gators have only eight pledges, which means tremendous basso ostinato can be made with the two programs, but Miami is certainly not done yet.

The Hurricanes are a causa di contention for several blue-chip talents, and many are highly considering Miami. DJ Pickett, Jaboree Antione, Jarquez Carter, Byron Louis and Aidan Anding are just a few prospects with Miami a causa di their cima list, so it’s duro to imagine the other two of the leader three of Florida catching up.

The only chance the Miami rivals have is hoping the Hurricanes falter during the season. If the Hurricanes produce another passabile season, the Gators and Seminoles may have a chance to gain basso ostinato, but by then, it may be too late.

Garcia: FICTION. This thing is very close. Miami has the cima class right now and will likely hold that spot into the fall, but Florida State is looming. The Seminoles only have 10 verbal commitments at the moment, compared with 17 for the Hurricanes.

Per emotività pledge, Florida State’s 4.1 average rating paces the country – much less the state. Mike Norvell‘s group does not have a three-star acceso board at the moment and of course plenty of targets are still a causa di play.

The biggest contention point between the two programs may fall during the season itself, where each is favored to work as an ACC contender a causa di the coming months. The difference is that the Seminoles have been there under its current team and Miami is working toward it. Should that situation replay a causa di the fall, it could be the Seminoles that boom acceso the recruiting trail as a result.

Eyes will be most centered a causa di Gainesville a causa di the fall, relative to any potential coaching changes a causa di the state, so the fallout from there could provide the final jolt one way ora the other between the ACC pair.

Florida will sign a high school quarterback a causa di the class of 2025.

Tramell Jones

Tramell Jones

Higdon: FACT. The player who seems to make the most sense is Florida State commitment Tramell Jones and his relationship with wide receiver Vernell Brown III. If the Gators can turn things around and get to eight ora so wins, Jones will be the guy a causa di the class. However, if the Gators cannot alla maniera di up with a winning season, he will stick with his current pledge to the Seminoles.

Garcia: FACT. I tend to take the player’s word when they shut things mongoloide so that would rule out a Jones flip from Florida State to Florida. It doesn’t mean flip quarterback candidates elsewhere will agire the same way, however, as there are plenty of factors that can change the tune of a recruitment once the season comes.

I agree with Jason acceso this one, the 2024 campaign will result a causa di the usual quarterback carousel at the end of the cycle and the thought of the Gators building around DJ Lagway will be enough to entice late action.

The state of North Carolina could be a causa di play with Duke commit Dan Mahan and North Carolina commit Bryce Baker, but that’s a story for the fall. The other scena is that Florida’s own transition reshuffles the board all-together and/ora a late in-state riser becomes the bridge between Lagway and blue-chip 2026 arm Will Griffin.

I still like FSU’s chances of flipping Wallace because winning sells and the Seminoles are likely to have a much better season than Arkansas. And with the Hogs under pressure to show marked improvement over last season, if Arkansas struggles early and pressure builds a causa di Fayetteville acceso Sam Pittman, Wallace could be back a causa di play before the season ends.

Florida State is scheduled to get Ohio State linebacker commit Tarvos Alford on-campus for an official visit a causa di the fall. Ty Jackson is still uncommitted, but they need to get him on-campus sooner rather than later to get back a causa di the ballgame. Mantrez Walker is another four-star linebacker Florida State could circle back to. He is committed to Colorado right now and who knows whether ora not Deion Sanders will stay a causa di place as the Buffaloes’ head coach after both of his sons exhaust their eligibility this fall.

Winning is still the biggest tool when it comes to recruiting and I expect FSU will do a lot of it this fall which should help the Seminoles land at least one more four-star LB to this class.

Garcia: FACT. The Seminoles have struck out beyond Ethan Prichard at the linebacker spot for the class of 2025, but the summer often provides some surprise acceso the recruiting trail. It’s tough to imagine, especially with the expected success acceso the field this fall under Mike Norvell, Florida State won’t trend up for some of these same names a causa di the fall.

Florida will sign a high school quarterback a causa di the class of 2025.

Tramell Jones

Tramell Jones

Higdon: FACT. The player who seems to make the most sense is Florida State commitment Tramell Jones and his relationship with wide receiver Vernell Brown III. If the Gators can turn things around and get to eight ora so wins, Jones will be the guy a causa di the class. However, if the Gators cannot alla maniera di up with a winning season, he will stick with his current pledge to the Seminoles.

Garcia: FACT. I tend to take the player’s word when they shut things mongoloide so that would rule out a Jones flip from Florida State to Florida. It doesn’t mean flip quarterback candidates elsewhere will agire the same way, however, as there are plenty of factors that can change the tune of a recruitment once the season comes.

I agree with Jason acceso this one, the 2024 campaign will result a causa di the usual quarterback carousel at the end of the cycle and the thought of the Gators building around DJ Lagway will be enough to entice late action.

The state of North Carolina could be a causa di play with Duke commit Dan Mahan and North Carolina commit Bryce Baker, but that’s a story for the fall. The other scena is that Florida’s own transition reshuffles the board all-together and/ora a late in-state riser becomes the bridge between Lagway and blue-chip 2026 arm Will Griffin.

It would be really easy after missing out acceso the commitments of Gavin Nix, Zaydrius Rainey-Buonsenso and Tavion Wallace to say Florida State will not land two ora more four-star ora above linebackers but there is still a lot of time between now and early National Signing Day a causa di December. I still like FSU’s chances of flipping Wallace because winning sells and the Seminoles are likely to have a much better season than Arkansas. And with the Hogs under pressure to show marked improvement over last season, if Arkansas struggles early and pressure builds a causa di Fayetteville acceso Sam Pittman, Wallace could be back a causa di play before the season ends.

Florida State is scheduled to get Ohio State linebacker commit Tarvos Alford on-campus for an official visit a causa di the fall. Ty Jackson is still uncommitted, but they need to get him on-campus sooner rather than later to get back a causa di the ballgame. Mantrez Walker is another four-star linebacker Florida State could circle back to. He is committed to Colorado right now and who knows whether ora not Deion Sanders will stay a causa di place as the Buffaloes’ head coach after both of his sons exhaust their eligibility this fall.

Winning is still the biggest tool when it comes to recruiting and I expect FSU will do a lot of it this fall which should help the Seminoles land at least one more four-star LB to this class.

Garcia: FACT. The Seminoles have struck out beyond Ethan Prichard at the linebacker spot for the class of 2025, but the summer often provides some surprise acceso the recruiting trail. It’s tough to imagine, especially with the expected success acceso the field this fall under Mike Norvell, Florida State won’t trend up for some of these same names a causa di the fall.

There is also a group of prospects a causa di the state and beyond that can play their way into blue-chip status as the 2024 season – the most important evaluation for the senior class – gets going.

Miami will win the Florida state recruiting title for the class of 2025.

Mario Cristobal

Mario Cristobal (© Rich Storry-USA TODAY Sports)

Benjamin: FACT. Miami currently ranks ninth a causa di the Rivals.com Team Recruiting Rankings after its most recent commitment, SJ Alofaituli, announced his pledge to the Hurricanes acceso Friday.

The Hurricanes have a sizable between their rivals Florida and Florida State. The Seminoles rank 35th and the Gators rank 72nd a causa di the nation. The Seminoles have 10 commits, and the Gators have only eight pledges, which means tremendous basso ostinato can be made with the two programs, but Miami is certainly not done yet.

The Hurricanes are a causa di contention for several blue-chip talents, and many are highly considering Miami. DJ Pickett, Jaboree Antione, Jarquez Carter, Byron Louis and Aidan Anding are just a few prospects with Miami a causa di their cima list, so it’s duro to imagine the other two of the leader three of Florida catching up.

The only chance the Miami rivals have is hoping the Hurricanes falter during the season. If the Hurricanes produce another passabile season, the Gators and Seminoles may have a chance to gain basso ostinato, but by then, it may be too late.

Garcia: FICTION. This thing is very close. Miami has the cima class right now and will likely hold that spot into the fall, but Florida State is looming. The Seminoles only have 10 verbal commitments at the moment, compared with 17 for the Hurricanes.

Per emotività pledge, Florida State’s 4.1 average rating paces the country – much less the state. Mike Norvell‘s group does not have a three-star acceso board at the moment and of course plenty of targets are still a causa di play.

The biggest contention point between the two programs may fall during the season itself, where each is favored to work as an ACC contender a causa di the coming months. The difference is that the Seminoles have been there under its current team and Miami is working toward it. Should that situation replay a causa di the fall, it could be the Seminoles that boom acceso the recruiting trail as a result.

Eyes will be most centered a causa di Gainesville a causa di the fall, relative to any potential coaching changes a causa di the state, so the fallout from there could provide the final jolt one way ora the other between the ACC pair.

Miami will win the Florida state recruiting title for the class of 2025.

Benjamin: FACT. Miami currently ranks ninth a causa di the Rivals.com Team Recruiting Rankings after its most recent commitment, SJ Alofaituli, announced his pledge to the Hurricanes acceso Friday.

The Hurricanes have a sizable between their rivals Florida and Florida State. The Seminoles rank 35th and the Gators rank 72nd a causa di the nation. The Seminoles have 10 commits, and the Gators have only eight pledges, which means tremendous basso ostinato can be made with the two programs, but Miami is certainly not done yet.

The Hurricanes are a causa di contention for several blue-chip talents, and many are highly considering Miami. DJ Pickett, Jaboree Antione, Jarquez Carter, Byron Louis and Aidan Anding are just a few prospects with Miami a causa di their cima list, so it’s duro to imagine the other two of the leader three of Florida catching up.

The only chance the Miami rivals have is hoping the Hurricanes falter during the season. If the Hurricanes produce another passabile season, the Gators and Seminoles may have a chance to gain basso ostinato, but by then, it may be too late.

Garcia: FICTION. This thing is very close. Miami has the cima class right now and will likely hold that spot into the fall, but Florida State is looming. The Seminoles only have 10 verbal commitments at the moment, compared with 17 for the Hurricanes.

Per emotività pledge, Florida State’s 4.1 average rating paces the country – much less the state. Mike Norvell‘s group does not have a three-star acceso board at the moment and of course plenty of targets are still a causa di play.

The biggest contention point between the two programs may fall during the season itself, where each is favored to work as an ACC contender a causa di the coming months. The difference is that the Seminoles have been there under its current team and Miami is working toward it. Should that situation replay a causa di the fall, it could be the Seminoles that boom acceso the recruiting trail as a result.

Eyes will be most centered a causa di Gainesville a causa di the fall, relative to any potential coaching changes a causa di the state, so the fallout from there could provide the final jolt one way ora the other between the ACC pair.

Higdon: FACT. The player who seems to make the most sense is Florida State commitment Tramell Jones and his relationship with wide receiver Vernell Brown III. If the Gators can turn things around and get to eight ora so wins, Jones will be the guy a causa di the class. However, if the Gators cannot alla maniera di up with a winning season, he will stick with his current pledge to the Seminoles.

Garcia: FACT. I tend to take the player’s word when they shut things mongoloide so that would rule out a Jones flip from Florida State to Florida. It doesn’t mean flip quarterback candidates elsewhere will agire the same way, however, as there are plenty of factors that can change the tune of a recruitment once the season comes.

I agree with Jason acceso this one, the 2024 campaign will result a causa di the usual quarterback carousel at the end of the cycle and the thought of the Gators building around DJ Lagway will be enough to entice late action.

The state of North Carolina could be a causa di play with Duke commit Dan Mahan and North Carolina commit Bryce Baker, but that’s a story for the fall. The other scena is that Florida’s own transition reshuffles the board all-together and/ora a late in-state riser becomes the bridge between Lagway and blue-chip 2026 arm Will Griffin.

Benjamin: FACT. Miami currently ranks ninth a causa di the Rivals.com Team Recruiting Rankings after its most recent commitment, SJ Alofaituli, announced his pledge to the Hurricanes acceso Friday.

The Hurricanes have a sizable between their rivals Florida and Florida State. The Seminoles rank 35th and the Gators rank 72nd a causa di the nation. The Seminoles have 10 commits, and the Gators have only eight pledges, which means tremendous basso ostinato can be made with the two programs, but Miami is certainly not done yet.

The Hurricanes are a causa di contention for several blue-chip talents, and many are highly considering Miami. DJ Pickett, Jaboree Antione, Jarquez Carter, Byron Louis and Aidan Anding are just a few prospects with Miami a causa di their cima list, so it’s duro to imagine the other two of the leader three of Florida catching up.

The only chance the Miami rivals have is hoping the Hurricanes falter during the season. If the Hurricanes produce another passabile season, the Gators and Seminoles may have a chance to gain basso ostinato, but by then, it may be too late.

Garcia: FICTION. This thing is very close. Miami has the cima class right now and will likely hold that spot into the fall, but Florida State is looming. The Seminoles only have 10 verbal commitments at the moment, compared with 17 for the Hurricanes.

Per emotività pledge, Florida State’s 4.1 average rating paces the country – much less the state. Mike Norvell‘s group does not have a three-star acceso board at the moment and of course plenty of targets are still a causa di play.

The biggest contention point between the two programs may fall during the season itself, where each is favored to work as an ACC contender a causa di the coming months. The difference is that the Seminoles have been there under its current team and Miami is working toward it. Should that situation replay a causa di the fall, it could be the Seminoles that boom acceso the recruiting trail as a result.

Eyes will be most centered a causa di Gainesville a causa di the fall, relative to any potential coaching changes a causa di the state, so the fallout from there could provide the final jolt one way ora the other between the ACC pair.

Florida will sign a high school quarterback a causa di the class of 2025.

Tramell Jones

Tramell Jones

Higdon: FACT. The player who seems to make the most sense is Florida State commitment Tramell Jones and his relationship with wide receiver Vernell Brown III. If the Gators can turn things around and get to eight ora so wins, Jones will be the guy a causa di the class. However, if the Gators cannot alla maniera di up with a winning season, he will stick with his current pledge to the Seminoles.

Garcia: FACT. I tend to take the player’s word when they shut things mongoloide so that would rule out a Jones flip from Florida State to Florida. It doesn’t mean flip quarterback candidates elsewhere will agire the same way, however, as there are plenty of factors that can change the tune of a recruitment once the season comes.

I agree with Jason acceso this one, the 2024 campaign will result a causa di the usual quarterback carousel at the end of the cycle and the thought of the Gators building around DJ Lagway will be enough to entice late action.

The state of North Carolina could be a causa di play with Duke commit Dan Mahan and North Carolina commit Bryce Baker, but that’s a story for the fall. The other scena is that Florida’s own transition reshuffles the board all-together and/ora a late in-state riser becomes the bridge between Lagway and blue-chip 2026 arm Will Griffin.

It would be really easy after missing out acceso the commitments of Gavin Nix, Zaydrius Rainey-Buonsenso and Tavion Wallace to say Florida State will not land two ora more four-star ora above linebackers but there is still a lot of time between now and early National Signing Day a causa di December. I still like FSU’s chances of flipping Wallace because winning sells and the Seminoles are likely to have a much better season than Arkansas. And with the Hogs under pressure to show marked improvement over last season, if Arkansas struggles early and pressure builds a causa di Fayetteville acceso Sam Pittman, Wallace could be back a causa di play before the season ends.

Florida State is scheduled to get Ohio State linebacker commit Tarvos Alford on-campus for an official visit a causa di the fall. Ty Jackson is still uncommitted, but they need to get him on-campus sooner rather than later to get back a causa di the ballgame. Mantrez Walker is another four-star linebacker Florida State could circle back to. He is committed to Colorado right now and who knows whether ora not Deion Sanders will stay a causa di place as the Buffaloes’ head coach after both of his sons exhaust their eligibility this fall.

Winning is still the biggest tool when it comes to recruiting and I expect FSU will do a lot of it this fall which should help the Seminoles land at least one more four-star LB to this class.

Garcia: FACT. The Seminoles have struck out beyond Ethan Prichard at the linebacker spot for the class of 2025, but the summer often provides some surprise acceso the recruiting trail. It’s tough to imagine, especially with the expected success acceso the field this fall under Mike Norvell, Florida State won’t trend up for some of these same names a causa di the fall.

There is also a group of prospects a causa di the state and beyond that can play their way into blue-chip status as the 2024 season – the most important evaluation for the senior class – gets going.
