Recruiting:
Take a look through some of the latest Crystal Ball picks that have come through for Florida State.
Plenty of Memphis players (including 2020 four-star offensive tackle Chris Morris) have been coming through Tallahassee lately, with 2022 pro-style quarterback Tevin Carter getting a scholarship offer. Carter currently isn’t ranked, but has 10 offers and threw for 22 touchdowns and over 1.600 yards last season (here’s his Hudl, for interested parties).
Three-star offensive lineman Tate Johnson is heading to Tallahassee...at least according to 2020 quarterback commit Jeff Sims, who claimed dibs on getting props for when Johnson commits to Florida State over Zane Herring, a 2020 offensive tackle who himself just committed four days ago.
Zane I get the point when he commits @ZaneHerring51 https://t.co/rlrwIi8vYv

Football:
Quarterback Tate Martell, who has a name that sounds straight out of an autogenerated NCAA Football Dynasty Mode roster, got his transfer waiver approved and will be able to play immediately at Miami (of Florida, fyi.) It’s got some people pondering what it means for the future of college football transfers, and the news also has to make recent FSU transfer Jordan Travis crossing his fingers for his own waiver.
