Jared Verse addresses his future with Florida State football

Jared Verse is arguably the top talent coming out of Florida State this year should he enter into the 2023 NFL draft. But Verse has not made a decision on whether or not he will take his talents to the next level or have one more go at it with the Seminoles. As Florida State prepares for their matchup against Oklahoma in the Cheez-Its Bowl, the Seminoles’ star defensive end addressed his future with the team and revealed his timeline for his decision.

“No, not at all,” said Verse when asked has he provided the coaches with a new timeline. “I’m still talking to my family, deciding what is best for me; what’s best for my family moving forward. But I have been very communicative with the coaches and the staff working around me. They have been very helpful, giving me the information I need. But it’s just whenever I feel right about it.”

And although Verse is still working things out with his family and those closest to him, he believes a decision will follow close behind the conclusion Florida states matchup against Oklahoma.

“Probably a week or two afterward, after the bowl game.”

Florida State lands No. 1 DT transfer Braden Fiske

The Florida State football team was in search of help on the defensive line this offseason, and the Seminoles aimed big by going after the top DL prospect in the transfer portal, former Western Michigan star Braden Fiske.

And after strongly considering the Seminoles, Notre Dame and Southern Cal, Fiske announced on Monday that he will be a Seminole.

According to Pro Football Focus, Fiske had an outstanding junior season. The 6-foot-5, 300-pounder was credited with 58 tackles, 12 tackles for loss and six sacks. He earned a PFF grade of 86.2, which was one of the top 15 grades in the country at that position among starters.
