FSU football: Noles trending with several 2023 blue-chip players
By Kelvin Hunt
Can They Land Them?
The coaching staff has always done a good job identifying talent and getting offers out early. They’ve also shown the ability to form relationships and get quality players on campus multiple times.
They’ve shown some progress and separated themselves from the previous staff. One player who signed last recruiting cycle said he would never consider the Noles after visiting campus with the previous staff. I think players see the coaching staff run a tight ship and work hard while at practice.
They can see the family atmosphere and the current players on the roster do a good job of selling the program to recruits, which is a departure from the previous staff. FSU has a charismatic blue-chip QB committed in Chris Parson, which should help.
However, FSU football needs to take that next step on the field to make signing the players needed a reality(among other things like the NIL front).
They can’t do anything about that until the season begins months from now. Until then, they need to keep getting these guys on campus and developing those relationships. For the players committing doesn’t mean anything crowd, I hear you.
However, players committing allows the coaching staff to know who they can potentially sign. That helps to address roster needs and creates momentum on the recruiting trails.
We saw it last summer, and we’ve seen in it past recruiting cycles. Just be patient and see how the chips fall between now and December. But for now, FSU is in a good spot
