While poor weather in Omaha saw some games postponed, FSU baseball paid a visit to the Children’s Hospital of Omaha to try and brighten up the day a little bit:
We had the pleasure of meeting and hanging out with some incredible individuals today at the @childrensomaha Hospital & Medical Center. pic.twitter.com/66p1HHdzGT

Alumni:
Former FSU receiver P.K. Sam isn’t happy that Clemson holds the “Wide Receiver U” title, but is confident receivers coach Ron Dugans will help FSU challenge their rival for the title:
As a former Seminole WR who was pretty good (i think ) seeing a young man call Clemson “WRU” pisses me off. We NEVER shouldve allowed this to happen. I know @r81dugans will get it back but damn...the best WR award for college is named after a Nole! https://t.co/FDkUwMKfLR

Former FSU football player Tank Carradine has bounced around the NFL, but hopes his newest team, the Miami Dolphins, are the perfect opportunity.
