Recruiting

- Florida State earned a 2017 commitment over the weekend from four-star quarterback Bailey Hockman.

- The Seminoles also left a huge impression on the top 2017 receiver, Donovan Peoples-Jones, who visited Tallahassee over the weekend.

Don't know who Florida State will replace, but they are DEFINITELY in my "Top 10". I loved it here . I will be back for sure! #NoleNation

- Alex Kirshner of SB Nation makes an unorthodox but very fair comparison between superdelegates in politics and college football recruits making their collegiate decision.

Alumni

- Former FSU quarterback Jameis Winston wants to be reunited with Jalen Ramsey. So much so that he has gone on record saying that he would take a pay cut so that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers could bring Ramsey aboard. Unluckily for Winston, few mock drafts have Ramsey being selected outside the top five picks, let alone falling to the Bucs at No. 9.
