CB FENTRELL CYPRESS II

Florida State is having to replace cornerback options such as Renardo Green and Jarrian Jones in their defense. Defensive backs coach Patrick Surtain Sr. knows that he wants to emphasis the importance of taking the football away from opposing offenses.

The Seminoles are having to come in and have Azareye'h Thomas as Fentrell Cypress II be the two starting cornerbacks on the outside. The good news is that both Thomas and Cypress II were contributors from a season ago.

We have not heard much about former Virginia cornerback transfer Fentrell Cypress II thus far in spring practice. The Seminoles were excited to land him during the last offseason given that Cypress II was so successful with the Cavaliers especially in man coverage.

We know how dominant Azareye'h Thomas has been in 1-on-1 drills in practice, but it is time for the senior defensive back to find his groove in Tallahassee.
