The Seminoles inked one of their strongest classes in the Jimbo Fisher era on Wednesday’s national signing day, finishing with the top rated class according to ESPN and the 2nd ranked class in 247 Sports’ composite rankings.
Florida State earned commitments from 18 players to go along with seven early enrollees to make up its 25-player signing class.
Unfortunately there is usually a bit of a let-down in the aftermath of national signing day. Most of the student-athletes to sign letters-of-intent on Wednesday are 17 or 18 years old and will require at least a year of development in a college weight lifting program before they’re able to compete on the collegiate level, but there are always a handful of players that can earn significant playing time in their first year on campus.
