2013 Recruiting Class (Ranked No. 1 in ACC, No. 11 Nationally)
Top Player: Jalen Ramsey / DB (Brentwood (TN) Academy)
On paper, this was considered the first “down class” under Fisher even though it was nearly halfway full of four and five star recruits. Maybe one of the best players to ever put on a FSU football uniform was part of this class when a Volunteer State product came south to make an impact in Florida.
Ramsey became the first freshman to start every game at cornerback since someone named Deion Sanders nearly three decades before. He would leave Tallahassee three years later having started every single game, averaging over 60 tackles along with nearly two sacks and an interception each year before becoming one of the highest draft picks in program history.
Honorable Mention: DE DeMarcus Walker, WR Kermit Whitfield, LB Matthew Thomas, CB Nate Andrews
