Everybody is obsessing over Oregon's five 5-stars and Texas stacking blue-chips, but look at what Florida State is quietly doing in the 2026 recruiting year. The composite rankings show the Seminoles sitting just outside the top 10 nationally, but the positional value is what stands out. Florida State has locked down elite trench talent on both sides, which is exactly how you build sustainable success in the ACC. The talent level is improving every year under this staff, and the 2026 class features more four-star prospects than any class since 2018. Meanwhile Miami is getting all the hype for landing Cantwell, but Florida State's average recruit rating is actually higher across the full class. Depth matters more than one superstar. The NIL revenue-sharing model capping at $20.5 million per school is gonna help programs like Florida State that develop talent instead of just buying the highest ranked class every year. By the time early signing period arrives, this class will finish top 8 nationally and people will act surprised.
