FSU Football: Top Five ‘Sleeper’ Recruits Under Jimbo Fisher
By Kelvin Hunt
FSU football is known for having some of the best players in college football history. We take a look at the top five sleeper recruits in the Jimbo Fisher era.
FSU football coach Jimbo Fisher has signed over 20 five-star recruits and over 80 four-star recruits since becoming head coach in 2010.
Fisher is known as one of the best recruiters in the nation and has only finished outside the top 7 once as a head coach.
That was the 2013 class that finished No. 11 in the nation.
Fisher currently has another top 5 class with potential additions of three to four more blue chip players in the 2017 recruiting cycle.
However, for every blue chip player Fisher signs, there always seems to be a “sleeper” recruit that nobody knows much about that winds up being big contributors on the field.
We looked at the 2010-2013 classes to try to find the top five “sleeper” recruits in the Fisher era. We didn’t include the 2014 classes and beyond because that’s usually not ample time for recruits to get in the groove of things.
