Florida State football, recruiting news: Another hurricane threatens FSU vs. Miami

Football:

• There’s a new tropical system in the Gulf of Mexico, and it could affect Florida State’s football game scheduled for this Saturday against Miami. This weekend was supposed to be both teams’ bye week, however Hurricane Irma postponed the original scheduled date back in September.
• According to a report from the Orlando Sentinel’s Safid Deen, Florida State officials, “Are monitoring the tropical storm and will continue to do so throughout the week.”

The storm is projected to hit Tallahassee with Tropical Storm winds affecting the area as soon as Saturday afternoon.

Looking around to possible spots for relocation, Atlanta, Jacksonville, and Tampa are all vacant this weekend. However, all three of those cities are also within the cone of concern.
