"I'm visiting Florida State this weekend," Mitchell said. "I am pretty sure that will be my last [visit before deciding]." "I love Coach [Odell] Haggins that recruits me. He is like an uncle to me. Great recruiter," Mitchell said. "A lot of players from my school have been going there. So a great connection there. I just feel like that place is home."

FSU was considered the early lean in his recruitment but Ohio State has surged following a spring game visit in April. Mitchell has said he will decide shortly after the visit sometime in late May or early June.
