FSU football: Why fans shouldn’t worry about 2020 blue chip ratio
By Kelvin Hunt
FSU football coaches are working to close out this 2020 transitional recruiting class. Fans shouldn’t worry about stars right now.
FSU football recruiting has been hot on the recruiting trails over the past week. They’ve landed commitments from Corey Wren, Robert Scott, Darion Williamson and Markeaston Douglas.
The Noles now stands at 23 commitments with the No. 20 ranked recruiting class in the nation.
However, one common theme on our social media comments section has been FSU football fans complaining about whether a recruit is a three-star, four-star or five-star or not.

There are not many blue-chip recruits remaining who didn’t sign early. Three weeks ago less than 40 blue-chip recruits were remaining, and there were only a handful of those who FSU had any type of relationship with.
The FSU coaching staff signing three-star players isn’t indicative of their recruiting prowess. I’d argue Mike Norvell and staff have done a good job of securing the best of what’s available while meeting needs.
Here’s why FSU fans shouldn’t worry about the blue chip ratio.
