Time will tell.... FSU coaches had had a lot to deal with over the past week with the transfer portal opening and the shooting on campus. They've lost two receivers from the roster in recent days. Hykeem Williams entered the transfer portal, and Jalen Brown was dismissed from the team for an off-the-field incident. FSU took two receivers from the portal in the Winter window but will likely take at least one in the Spring window.

The wide receiver trend at Florida State is concerning. Florida State football has had a concerning trend as of late. The Seminoles' offense is supposed to be "Built for Playmakers." However, that unit was one of the worst in the country last year and has fans worried about the future. The wide receiver position has taken a hit with Hykeem Williams, Jordan Scott, and Jalen Brown.

Wide receiver offers are coming in. I previously wrote a piece discussing how some of the fan base is worried about the transfer portal acquisitions during the spring window for the Seminoles. Plot twist, I did not express concerns behind the lack of pickups since undergraduate transfers have until April 25th to enter the portal.
Is there a reason to worry about FSU football in the portal with its acquisitions?

Should we be worried about the lack of portal pickups for Florida State? Let's face it, head football coach Mike Norvell is sliding on thin ice with some of the fan base after what transpired during the 2024 season. A 2-10 record is unthinkable for a Florida State program that is used to competing for conference and national championships. The fan base is in an uproar (rightfully so). Norvell was once regarded as one of the up-and-coming head football coaches in college football.

Florida State needs to locate viable pass catchers. Florida State football has seen wide receivers such as Jordan Scott, Hykeem Williams, and Jalen Brown enter the transfer portal. The Seminoles are looking for reliable weapons to have in the offense under the guidance of Gus Malzahn. The offense was not good in 2024, quite possibly the worst in the country.
Deion Sanders targeting 5-star Florida State signee who just left Mike Norvell

Prime is working quickly here. With the way the transfer portal works, teams have to jump fast at their top targets. Such is the case with Florida State legend Deion Sanders and his Colorado Buffs. There's now a former 5-star signee available and Sanders is working quickly to try and land him. That'd be Hykeem Williams, who spent two seasons in Tallashassee with Mike Norvell and Co. Unfortunately, Williams never lived up to the hype and he has decided to continue his playing career elsewhere.

It starts and ends with head football coach Mike Norvell, who made six coaching changes this offseason.
