Sophomore LB Stephen Dix Jr. becomes third Seminole this week to enter transfer portal
Spring ended on Monday for the Florida State football team, and the offseason transactions are already heating up.
For the third straight day, the Seminoles had a defensive player announced he is entering the transfer portal, and for the second time it is a former starter.
Stephen Dix Jr., a redshirt sophomore from Orlando, made his intentions known with a post on social media Wednesday afternoon. The former four-star recruit played in 21 games during his career but missed all of last season due to an injury.

Dix started five games as a freshman in 2020 and recorded 45 tackles that year, but he was primarily a backup in 2021 and likely would have been third team for Florida State this fall.
Dix recorded 14 tackles and one pass breakup during the 2021 season.
