Florida State was extremely busy on Sunday. The Seminoles were hosting a plethora of transfer portal targets, and the hope was to get a few commitments.
Although no players left Tallahassee with a deal in place, FSU apparently did enough for Noles247’s Zach Blostein to feel confident about where the program stands with two of them. He has logged crystal ball predictions for Florida State to land Bowling Green offensive lineman Nate Pabst as well as Texas A&M edge Rylan Kennedy.
Pabst has five years of collegiate experience. He’s taken over 2,100 snaps during his career, and he’s done so playing every offensive line position besides center. Pabst has played in 42 games and has one year remaining of eligibility.
Kennedy has played in 37 games for the Aggies. He has totaled 40 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, and four pass breakups. As a redshirt junior, Kennedy has two years of eligibility.
The Seminoles looked better on the offensive line under Herb Hand in 2025, but they’re losing all five starters. On the defensive line, it wasn’t the best season for FSU, and some experience could certainly help out in 2026.
