CB CHAUNCEY KENNON

The name speaks for itself: Patrick Surtain Sr.

I believe that Surtain Sr. has been the best recruiter on the Seminoles' staff. Even with Florida State's struggles on the football field, the defensive back position hasn't been the one to worry about.

The Seminoles have talented young pieces such as Charles Lester III, Jamari Howard, Cai Bates, Ricky Knight III, Zae Thomas, Shamar Arnoux, and Max Redmon. Plus, Florida State has veterans who are primed for a breakout season, such as Earl Little Jr., Shyheim Brown, and Edwin Joseph.

This should be enough to impress five-star cornerback target Chauncey Kennon from Booker High School in Sarasota, Florida. He officially visited the Seminoles earlier in June and will be making his decision on July 6th. There have been several crystal ball predictions in favor of Florida State for him, so it seems like a slam dunk recruitment for the Seminoles.
