Florida State football's recruiting class has been a disaster, with a 1-9 record. The losses have made the fan base feel numb at this point. The Seminoles had aspirations of winning the conference and securing a spot in the College Football Playoff.
The program, in its fifth year of head football coach Mike Norvell, has fans questioning the future of the proud institution. The best outcome of the year is 3-9 if they can secure victories over Charleston Southern (please, football gods...) and Florida.
The Gators could be playing for bowl eligibility next week when they travel to Doak Campbell Stadium. Recruiting has been successful for Florida after they announced head football coach Billy Napier would be returning and their win over LSU.
On the other hand, Florida State has suffered lost pledges in their recruiting class, with failures continuing to pile up. The Seminoles could prioritize the transfer portal more than high school prospects. However, this article isn't all bad, as Florida State is working on two talented recruits.
The Seminoles have to search for Plan E and F's after prospects such as four-star defensive end Javion Hilson and four-star defensive tackle Myron Charles ended up de-committing at Florida State. They decided to allow three-star defensive ends Darryll and Mandrell Desir to pledge.
Florida State is working on four-star defensive end Tylon Lee from Pace High School in Milton, Florida (Ole Miss commit). The talented prospect is planning on officially visiting for the Florida game on November 29th.
We also saw what happened with the Seminoles' wide receivers as four-stars CJ Wiley, Malik Clark, and Daylan McCutcheon went elsewhere. Then, position coach Ron Dugans was fired. As a result, Florida State offered three-star playmaker Teriq Mallory from Chesire, Connecticut, who is currently committed to West Virginia.
Florida State looks to be turning its attention to the transfer portal, but it is good to see that it is trying to secure prospects in the high school ranks.
