Florida State freshman WR Goldie Lawrence enters transfer portal
Less than a year after coming to Florida State as part of a highly touted freshman wide receiver class, former Sanford Seminole star Goldie Lawrence has entered the transfer portal.
Lawrence was a three-star recruit coming out of high school and spent his entire freshman year on the Florida State scout-team offense. He appeared in just one game, against Southern Miss, and played five snaps without catching a pass.
Lawrence was the least productive of the four freshman receivers on the 2023 squad.
Fellow freshman Destyn Hill caught six passes for 87 yards, Hykeem Williams caught five passes for 80 yards and a touchdown, and Vandrevius Jacobs caught three passes for 60 yards and a touchdown.
After catching 54 passes as a junior in high school, Lawrence played in only eight games as a senior. He caught 27 passes for 471 yards and seven touchdowns that season, while adding 89 yards and five touchdowns on 11 rushing attempts.
Florida State has now seen 15 scholarship players enter the transfer portal this offseason, and Lawrence is the second receiver. Senior Winston Wright Jr. actually left the team during the season and entered the portal as well.
