FSU football: 15 blue-chip players FSU could realistically sign in 2024 class
By Kelvin Hunt
FSU football recruiting has gotten off to a great start for the 2024 recruiting cycle. The Noles have seven blue-chip players out of 11 commits and many blue-chip targets remaining on their recruiting board.
They already have QB1, RB1, and TE1 and four wide receivers committed. The trenches and the secondary are where the coaching staff has to decipher who they want the most, coupled with which targets are most interested in the Noles.
The coaches have done a great job getting recruits and committed players on campus and have scheduled double-digit official visits for this summer.
I asked if the Noles could surpass a 70 percent blue-chip ratio in the 2024 class. With seven commits and double-digit uncommitted targets remaining?
Here are 15 uncommitted blue-chip targets the Noles could realistically sign in the 2024 recruiting class.
Zaquan Patterson ranks as the No. 72 player and No. 5 safety nationally. He ranks as the No. 12 player overall in the Sunshine State, checking in at 6’0″ and 185 pounds. He is teammates with 2023 FSU football defensive back signee Edwin Joseph. Patterson began running track last year and posted an 11.2 one-hundred-meter dash. That’s not bad for some that don’t have track experience. Patterson released his top five list of schools on April 23. That list included FSU, Ohio State, Michigan, Auburn, and, Miami. Patterson received his FSU offer in May 2021 and camped there in June 2021. The Noles got him back on campus this spring but will need to get him back on campus between this summer and fall for an official visit. Having a former teammate on the roster and likely competing for a College Football Playoff spot should put the Noles in the mix between Ohio State and Michigan. One thing FSU offers that they don’t? He’d be relatively close to home and not playing in colder weather.. S. Chaminade-Madonna Prep, Hollywood, FL. ZAQUAN PATTERSON. 4-Star
