Florida State football, recruiting news: Is Dalvin Cook the third best RB in the 2017 NFL Draft?

Football:

Recruiting:

• Star wide receiver recruit Joshua Moore talked to Bud Elliott about FSU, LSU and where he plans to visit. The Seminoles seem to be very involved in the four-str receiver from IMG Academy.

In recent months, Moore has visited Florida State, LSU, Georgia, and Tennessee.

At the camp, Moore had a wardrobe changeup. For the first time at a recruiting event this year, he wore something other than Ohio State gear — Florida State shorts.

Moore was supposed to return to Tallahassee recently for the second time this year with his mother, but he said she got caught up with work. Moore says that the visit with mom is still going to happen. He would like it to be this spring, but said it will likely be over the summer. Moore told SB Nation previously that he has built a great relationship with FSU’s players and coaches.

• Bishop Gorman (Nv.) QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson released a top-7 schools which included Florida State. The No. 50 overall prospect in the nation recently received his offer from FSU on March 7th.
