Florida State<\/a> needs some offensive line talent in its 2027 recruiting class<\/a>. Ian Walker, out of Pennington, New Jersey, has found himself on the Seminoles’ radar.<\/p>\n

The 6-foot-6, 305-pounder has around 30 scholarship offers on the table. Now, he can add another as FSU extended him a scholarship on Friday. He is a four-star prospect.<\/p>\n

“After a Great Conversation with @CoachNickWill I am BLESSED to receive a offer from @FSUFootball,” Walker said on social media.<\/p>\n

In order to land Walker, Florida State is going to have to beat out some top-tier programs. Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, LSU, Oregon, Florida, Auburn, and more have also offered the standout from The Pennington School.<\/p>\n

Walker is the nation’s No. 411 overall player and the No. 22 interior offensive lineman. He’s listed as the No. 8 prospect in the state of New Jersey as well.<\/p>\n

Offensive line coach Herb Hand needs to have a strong showing in the upcoming recruiting cycle after bringing some pretty good talent in the 2026 class.<\/p>\n
