FSU lands Two WR Recruits
...The Seminoles landed highly-touted Pennsylvania athlete A.J. Alexander and Tallahassee wide receiver Josh Gehres over the weekend pulling the commitment list up to around 24.
Gehres had a 1,000-yard receiving season for Lincoln this season and averaged over 30 yards per catch. He's most likely going to be a grayshirt offer, which means he will not be on campus until January and will not officially "count" towards this class.
As for Alexander, that's a bit of a different bird. His recruiting has been strange to say the least.
- Alexander committed to FSU over the spring and was considered "soft".
- By the middle of the summer Alexander decommitted and said he was no longer interested in FSU and he wanted to go to Penn State, Pitt and Maryland.
- After his senior season was over it became obvious that Penn State dropped him and he contacted FSU again.
- Coach Rick Trickett went to an in-home visit and they set up an official to FSU.
- Alexander visited Pitt first and committed to the Panthers saying he was "done"
- A week later Alexander contacts FSU again and says he isn't sure about Pitt and wants to visit.
- Two days later the visit was off. Alexander was done.
- The following week Alexander contacted Trickett again and the visit was on for this past weekend.
- Alexander had travel issues and didn't fly in until Sunday. He committed to FSU on Monday and says he's happy and his mom's happy and everyone's happy....for now.

Yes...
We are still waiting to see if the boys will be playing on Labor Day again.
But the full schedule should be coming out any day now.
