Mike Norvell and the Florida State staff started with a young team in 2020, gradually developed high school signees and added transfers with experience who brought production and leadership. This moment was bound to happen, with accumulated experience (the likes of Jordan Travis, Trey Benson, Keon Coleman, Johnny Wilson, Jaheim Bell) and others moving on to the NFL.
FSU’s coaches knew they had a challenge on their hands but also an opportunity to build the roster in their image, through relationships they built with high school prospects as well as those in the transfer portal (and many of those relationships existed years ago when they were in high school, too).
In the next two days we’ll take a look at a few pleasant surprises on offense and defense. Some are newcomers. Some are likely starters. Others are young and likely backups. A few could have featured roles.
Here's the first part of our series breaking down one player at each offensive position who has been a pleasant surprise so far this spring.
