The top 100 FSU football players: No. 14— defensive back Terrell Buckley

I could write 10,000 words and still not accurately capture the scope of Terrell Buckley’s greatness.

He wasn’t just a great player — he added to the lore, legends, and myths of the greatest dynasty this sport has ever seen.

He was a multi-sport star in high school, and one in college. He’s one of the greatest athletes to come out of Mississippi.

He played football and baseball his freshman year at Florida State in 1989. He was good, and he knew it. He was ninth in the country in punt returns and was one of the few Seminole freshmen to see the field that year.
