FSU football redshirt senior quarterback Jordan Travis met with the media on Wednesday to discuss the offseason with the team.

One aspect of the interview that stood out to me was that Travis stated that he was currently 212 pounds and planned to maintain the weight into the 2023 season.

During the 2022 season, the West Palm Beach native had a phenomenal campaign, completing 226 of his 353 passes (64 percent) for 3,214 passing yards with 24 touchdowns and only five interceptions. He was also dynamic on the ground, recording 82 carries for 417 rushing yards and seven touchdowns.

During his four seasons with the Seminoles, durability has been a topic of concern at times. When he suffered a lower body injury against Louisville, everyone pressed the panic button and thought that he would out for the season.

However, Travis defied the odds and finished the year on a high note. The coaching staff acquired a ton of playmakers in their offense to help their quarterback during his final season in Tallahassee, such as Keon Coleman (Michigan State), Jaheim Bell, Kyle Morlock (Shorter), Destyn Hill (2021 signee), Hykeem Williams, Vandrevius Jacobs, and Darren Lawrence.

They also loaded up in the trenches with adding Jeremiah Byers (UTEP), Casey Roddick (Colorado), Keiondre Jones (Auburn), Lucas Simmons, and Andre Otto.

Florida State will be looking to build upon its 36.1 PPG from 2022. With playing the likes of Southern Miss, Boston College, Duke, Virginia Tech, Syracuse, North Alabama, could that number elevate to close to 40 PPG in 2023?

The public has certainly generated buzz around redshirt senior quarterback Jordan Travis, who has the 4th-best odds (+1200) to win the Heisman Trophy next season.

At one time, FSU fans were convinced that Travis could not throw a pass 15+ yards downfield. It is still unbelievable to fathom the progression that he has had as a quarterback under the guidance of head football coach Mike Norvell and quarterbacks coach Tony Tokarz.
