Florida State football, recruiting news: FSU wraps up big recruiting weekend

Recruiting:

It was a big weekend for FSU recruiting; all 13 commitments were on campus and multiple four-star and three-star targets took their official visits as well.

If FSU was able to resecure his commitment it would go a long way towards re-establishing FSU’s pass rush in the future.

Of the 13 recruits committed to FSU ten seem poised to sign on Wednesday and the other 3 (Thomas Shrader, Jadarius Mcknight, and Lawrance Toa’fili) while preferring to sign in February remains steadfast in their commitment to FSU.

Perhaps the biggest news of the weekend (recruiting-wise) was this:

Demorie Tate is FSU’s highest rated commitment and a potential five-star talent; locking him down had to be close to priority number on thew new staff’s objective list.

Four-star quarterback and louisville commitment Chubba Purdy wrapped up his official visit to FSU:

A flip this late for a QB of his caliber would send quite the message.
