Florida State football, recruiting news: FSU adds linebacker depth ahead of season

Football:

Nick O’Leary is back in Tallahassee and officially joining FSU’s staff.

Shyheim Brown lost 12lbs this offseason; no surprise as his role expands from in-the-box safety to every down player.

David Hale has done an excellent job previewing the ACC all off-season and the conclusion is that you can’t go wrong picking either Clemson or FSU as this year’s champion:

Don’t want to wait until Wednesday to see what the ‘Noles have to say at the ACC Kickoff? You’re in luck.

Recruiting:

I know I say this every big recruiting weekend but this really could be the most important recruiting weekend of the year for FSU.
