Florida State football has dealt with adversity this offseason, where many members of the Seminoles' 2024 recruiting class have moved on to the transfer portal. This is the harsh reality of college football nowadays.
It stings to lose a core foundation to building stability within a program. The 2024 recruiting class was obtained after the Seminoles finished with the 13-1 record and the winning culture was established.
One prospect that the Seminole fan base wanted in the class was four-star defensive back Jordan Pride from Blountstown, Florida. He committed to Florida State early in the recruitment process back in July 2021, but he backed off his pledge in April 2023.
