4-star wide receiver target Koby Howard set his commitment date

Florida State football fans have been patiently waiting for some good recruiting news as their last recruit to commit to the program was when four-star defensive end Javion Hilson de-committed from Alabama and flipped to the Seminoles on January 16th.

The Seminoles currently sit as the fifteenth-best recruiting class in the 2025 cycle. However, the coaching staff has some work to be done. As I alluded to in a previous article, Class of 2025 five-star wide receiver Jaime Ffrench Jr. and four-star wide receiver Vernell Brown III have both received crystal ball predictions recently in favor of Ohio State.

As a result, it could mean that the Seminoles will start to expand their options at the position. One name to monitor through this process is four-star Koby Howard from Chaminade-Madonna Prep. According to a report from On3's Chad Simmons, the talented wide receiver will be announcing his commitment on March 31st.

Howard will be deciding between eight schools: Florida State, Miami, Florida, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Notre Dame, LSU, and Missouri. The Chaminade-Madonna Prep standout has visited Tallahassee the most out of all of the contenders.

He has even gone a step forward to let a variety of media members know after his exit interview that the Seminoles were his top school. The fact that Florida State was the first team to offer him has a close place to his heart. The 5'11" playmaker can take it the distance in the open field.

Howard has an official visit scheduled with the arch-rival Florida Gators scheduled for the end of May. While he has a commitment scheduled for March 31st, does that mean that he will still take the visit (if he does not choose the Gators)?

If Florida State finds a way to acquire Howard, it would give four-star quarterback Tramell Jones Jr. a dependable option to throw to at the wide receiver position.
