Fresh off an official visit to Florida State, Greensboro (Ga.) Greene County four-star defensive lineman Kevin Wynn has committed to the Seminoles.

Wynn chose the ‘Noles over schools like Georgia, South Carolina and Texas.

“Florida State first offer, they were the first college I visited, they have been on my since 9th grade and they have always been with me and high on my list,” Wynn told On3. “At the end of the official visit, I made my decision to commit to Florida State. It felt like home.”

Mike Norvell has been involved in Wynn’s recruitment. He has the best relationship with Odell Haggins. After spending 48 hours in Tallahassee, Wynn knew where he wanted to be.

“The people make the place at Florida State. It is a great atmosphere to be in with the players and the coaches there. Coach Norvell is a ball of energy and that energy rubs off on others. He is a great guy that cares for his players. Coach Haggins shows a lot of love too and he develops a lot of guys that play in the NFL.

“This visit showed me a lot. I had been to two games, but after seeing everything at Florida State and being around the people more, that was the school for me.”

The 6-foot-2, 325-pound Wynn is the nation’s No. 141 overall prospect, No. 12 defensive lineman and No. 19 recruit from Georgia in the 2025 cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Wynn joins a small but mighty class in Tallahassee. Through June, the Seminoles have landed four additional commits: Jacksonville Raines five-star interior offensive lineman Solomon Thomas, Cocoa (Fla.) four-star EDGE Javion Hilson, Jacksonville Mandarin four-star quarterback Tramell Jones and Sanford (Fla.) Seminole four-star linebacker Ethan Pritchard.
