Florida State’s last home game of the 2025 season is on Saturday. That means this is the final time this year for recruits to experience a packed Doak Campbell Stadium.
It should be quite the environment, as Tallahassee at night pretty much always delivers. The Seminoles will be celebrating senior day and military appreciation weekend when the ball kicks off on Bobby Bowden Field.

Among the crop of talent will be three-star tight end and Florida State commitment, Corbyn Fordham.
The Seminole legacy flipped from Ohio State to FSU in early October. This will be Fordham’s first trip to Tallahassee since the loss to Miami. It will also serve as his official visit.
During his senior season at The Bolles School, Fordham caught 23 passes for 262 yards and three touchdowns. He added three tackles for loss and a sack on defense.

The 6-foot-3.5, 215-pound tight end is regarded as the No. 629 overall prospect, the No. 33 TE, and the No. 78 recruit in Florida in the 2026 class according to the 247Sports composite ratings.
Fordham is the son of Todd Fordham, who played at Florida State from 1992-96 and was a member of the program’s first national championship team in 1993. The elder Fordham spent a decade in the NFL.
Florida State holds 25 verbal commitments in its 2026 class which ranks No. 14 in the country.
The Seminoles previously landed four-star tight end Xavier Tiller.
