“I would say it’s the family there, and I know and trust Coach Johnson and Coach Norvell a lot,” Singleton said. “They want to use me everywhere in the backfield with my speed. I feel we are going to do something special. I’ve been talking with Big Rod (Roderick Kearney), so I know he’s going to be excited.”
Kearney, who also hails from the Jacksonville area, is one of several four-star prospects to have committed to FSU in the past four or five weeks.
Singleton becomes the 12th commitment in the 2023 class for FSU. He also revealed that he’s going to be in attendance at the season opener for the ‘Noles on Aug. 27 against Duquesne.
