FSU football might be the hottest team in the nation on the recruiting trail this week. The Noles started the week with four blue-chip commitments but have added three more since Monday, with more on the way. The Noles have hit its feeder states Florida, and Georgia for all of those, but have gotten interest from guys who live outside of those two states. One of those players, four-star tight end Chase Loftin, officially visited the Noles earlier this month. He hails from Omaha, Nebraska, and most folks figured he'd be a long shot to come to FSU. However, he put out a visit recap and said he loved everything about FSU and that the distance wouldn't be a factor in his recruitment. That sentiment must have some truth to it because two On3 recruiting analysts logged crystal ball predictions for the Noles Friday night. One analyst covers Nebraska, and the other is well-respected Steve Wiltfong. One analysts gave a five out of 10 confidence and the other had 6 out of 10 in their prediction. Loftin ranks as the No. 374 player nationally, the No. 19 tight end, and the No. 2 player in Nebraska. He lists 6'6" and 215 pounds, with offers from Nebraska, Texas A&M, Missouri, Arkansas, Florida, and others. His older brother plays at Kansas State.

Death.
Taxes.
The Tight End is ALWAYS Open.

The Noles only took one tight end in the 2024 recruiting cycle with Landen Thomas. They seem to have two targets, Loftin, and Hollis Davidson, who said he'd choose between Auburn and FSU soon. FSU tight end coach Chris Thomsen has quietly improved the talent in that unit over the last two seasons. Loftin and Davidson seem to fit into the mold of current FSU tight end Kyle Morlock size-wise. We've seen crystal ball predictions are not 100 percent accurate and things can change quickly, but right now, things look good for the Noles.
