Part of that is undoubtedly due to the current state of Florida State. The Seminoles are 7-18 dating back to the College Football Playoff snub, and head coach Mike Norvell is on the hot seat entering 2026.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5t\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/college\/fsu\/florida-state-seminoles-college-football\/fsu-football-names-starting-quarterback-2026-season-ashton-daniels-\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">READ MORE: FSU Football Names Starting Quarterback Ahead Of 2026 Season<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"60\">With the uncertainty surrounding Norvell&#8217;s job status, it&#8217;s tough to blame top high school prospects for not latching their futures to a struggling head coach.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"63\">Florida State isn&#8217;t really in the running for any five-star recruits, but there are still some talented options on the board.<\/p>\n<p>Four-Star WR Includes Seminoles In Top-5<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/01kpw314689n83agb7dk.png\" alt=\"Anthony Jennings\" title=\"Anthony Jennings\" width=\"649\" height=\"649\" class=\"undefined w-full w-full blur-[5px]\" q:id=\"6g\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Anthony Jennings\/Twitter<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6k\">Earlier this week, four-star wide receiver Anthony Jennings announced he was trimming his recruitment down to five.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6n\">Florida State made the cut alongside Florida, Auburn, Syracuse, and Maryland.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6q\">The Seminoles have been pursuing Jennings for over a year, extending him a scholarship in January of 2025.

Jennings will be in Tallahassee for the first time this year from June 19-21 for his official visit.
