Instant reaction: Breaking down Kenton Kirkland commitment

Florida State Seminoles football got another win on the recruiting trail on Monday, securing a commitment from Kenton Kirkland, a 6’2”, 185-pound defensive back, who plays for Raines High School in Jacksonville.

The addition of Kirkland helped bump up FSU to the No. 20th class overall. He is considered a high three-star by the 247 Sports Composite List (four-star on most sites) but is much closer to a blue-chip ranking than that of a solid three-star.

What aspects of his game give the Three Stars confidence that he’s better than his current rating?
