Lawrance Toafili and Marvin Jones Jr. talked after Wednesday morning's FSU practice about the benefits of this preseason trip, their impressions of their position groups this fall and more.

Here's our video interview with head coach Mike Norvell after FSU's first practice in Jacksonville Wednesday morning. He praised guys like Malik Benson and Andre' Otto, talked about his hope that FSU can practice at UNF Thursday and more.

Is he still on the team. Was hoping he would do well this year after recovering from ACL surgery but have not seen him in any video coverage.

FSU is in the Jaguars' facility this morning for its first of two practices in Jacksonville. Here's video highlights from the opening portion of practice.

FSU sports information:

The reigning national champion Florida State soccer team earned all eight first-place votes en route to earning the top spot in the United Soccer Coaches Preseason Poll. The Seminoles have earned the No. 1 spot to start the season for the fourth time in six seasons.

Florida State was one of three ACC schools ranked inside the top five and one of seven ACC schools ranked inside the top 25. New conference opponent and national championship runner-up Stanford was ranked No. 2 followed by BYU, Penn State, and Clemson. FSU is scheduled to play four ranked teams, all four in Tallahassee, and two teams receiving votes.

The Seminoles are coming off their fourth straight national championship in 10 seasons and fourth straight conference title. The team returns 10 players from last season and brought in the No. 1 ranked recruiting class with seven freshmen and seven transfers.

Florida State will host an exhibition match against TCU on Friday before opening its season in Tampa against South Florida on Aug. 15.

Amaree Williams’ long-term future is on defense. But his talent, past experience and short-term outlook is on offense.

What Williams is doing is somewhat rare. High school stars are often asked to play offense and defense and then they decide along with college coaches which side of the ball they will focus on. The difference is Williams’ focus in the summer and preseason camp is on tight end, while also seeking to add on weight and eventually settle in at defensive end in 2025.

And after reclassifying, he’s doing this in what was set to be his senior year of high school.

“He’s made some really good plays,” tight ends coach Chris Thomsen said. “Still obviously learning. In high school he was a little bit more out wide on the perimeter. The closer he gets to the ball, some of that stuff is new to him. But overall he’s done a great job of just coming in and trying to absorb all of the things that he’s asked to do.

"His play-making ability, his athleticism has shown up.”
