Jared Verse dominated in his first season at Florida State. As a redshirt sophomore, he could have been a first-round NFL draft pick, but instead, came back to Tallahassee. Even with one more year of eligibility left, Seminoles fans shouldn’t expect Verse to do the same thing this time around.

After transferring from Albany, Verse has amassed 13.5 sacks and counting at FSU. Like Coleman, he is a supreme talent with all the physical tools at a premium position. He could go top 10 and will not slip out of the first round.

What Norvell has built, looks like it is built to last, but with Coleman and Verse both dominating and primed to leave for the NFL, Florida State needs to make the most of this season.
