Florida State University has scored a major recruiting victory with the commitment of the No. 1 cornerback in the Class of 2026. The highly sought-after defensive back, standing at 6-foot-2 and weighing 195 pounds, hails from Severn, Maryland, and is considered one of the most elite prospects in the nation at his position. After carefully weighing his options, he chose to join the Seminoles, turning down other top programs such as Wisconsin, Penn State, and Maryland.
The talented cornerback had garnered national attention throughout his high school career thanks to his exceptional size, athleticism, and instincts in the secondary. His ability to shut down receivers, read the quarterback, and make plays on the ball made him a standout among his peers and a priority for many major college programs. Scouts praise his physical playing style, fluid movement, and versatility—traits that make him an ideal fit for today’s aggressive defensive schemes.
His commitment to Florida State reflects the growing momentum within the program’s recruiting efforts under head coach Mike Norvell. The Seminoles have been working diligently to bring top-tier talent back to Tallahassee as they continue their push to return to national prominence. Landing the top-ranked cornerback in his class sends a strong message to the rest of the college football world: FSU is building for long-term success and has become a destination for elite players once again.
The addition of this shutdown corner to the 2026 recruiting class not only strengthens the defense for the future but also helps elevate the program’s status among top recruits across the country.
