Thomas Castellanos
How was Thomas Castellanos rated as an 88.15 three-star in high school but an 87 three-star rating as a transfer after big production over the past two years?
I know some FSU fans hate the take. It wasn't my first choice, but I understand why FSU coaches went with him. He is electric with the ball in his hands and he looked improved as a passer in an offense that didn't fit him last year.
If you give him any semblance of defense while at Boston College, he probably leads them to nine wins in 2023. If the FSU offensive line is average at best, I think he can pass well enough to win more games than folks realize, because I expect the FSU defense to be much improved over last year.
His ability to pass is the key because we know he can run the ball, and Gus Malzahn will play to his strengths much more than Bill O'Brien last year. That approach and surrounding him with more talent and a better defense? It could be much better in 2025 than folks realize.
