Football:
- Bill Connelly of SB Nation set up a 15 year simulation in which College Football teams were delegated and relegated, much like the European Soccer system. In his new eight team Tier I playoff, Florida State made the playoff in four simulations. Take a look at what teams would be relegated and delegated, as well as how the conferences would look after the 15-years.

- Tom Fornelli of CBS Sports has the Seminoles atop the list of best jobs in the ACC.
Florida State was actually in danger of falling behind before Jimbo Fisher took over and made football king again in Tallahassee. When compared to the other schools of the ACC, there's really only one other school that comes close to everything Florida State has to offer, whether we're talking history, tradition, fan base or recruiting. FSU's well-positioned in it all.

Recruiting:
- Florida State has been heavily recruiting No. 6 overall 2018 prospect QB Justin Fields from Kennesaw (Ga.) Harrison. Fields had been committed to Penn State until Tuesday when he announced his decommitment. See where the Seminoles stand and what the decommitment means from Tomahawk Nation.
Nobody in country does a better job of developing QBs for the NFL than Jimbo Fisher, the system will truly prepare you for greatness! #Facts
