FSU football: 10 major questions heading into 2024 fall camp
By Kelvin Hunt
Special Teams?
There were big questions about special teams heading into the 2023 season, but kick Ryan Fitzgerald had a great bounce-back season, and Keon Coleman became a huge factor on special teams as a punt returner. Fitzgerald returns for his final year, making 19 of 21 field goals and all 58 extra points. Alex Mastromanno returns for his final season and is on several watch lists. He's become a valuable weapon at FSU with his ability to punt and pin teams inside the 20-yard line.
I think the consensus is that Jaylin Lucas will be the punt returner and chip in at kick returner along with Deuce Spann. Who can forget Spann's game-changing kickoff return for a touchdown against Duke last season? FSU was solid on punt return coverage but among the worst on kickoff return coverage(No. 108 nationally) last season. Can improve in this area with so many new faces?
