2011 Local RB Gets FSU Offer


Chevelle Buie 5'9" 160lbs 4.5 40 yard dash who is a RB for the current 2 time State Champion Cocoa Tigers of Cocoa Florida has been offered a scholarship from FSU. I personally love it when FSU goes after Brevard County players.South Carolina, TCU, and Georgia have also offered this young man.

Florida smashed Cinncinnati in the real Sugar Bowl so I am going to use that score which is probably more accurate than the XBox 360 NCAA 10 Simulation.

If I Were a 5 Star Recruit


I have narrowed my list of 10 schools down to 5. Remember for this hypothetical situation I am a 5 Star DT 6'3" and 300lbs from Titusville Florida. The following was my list of my top 10 schools:

1. Florida
2. Alabama
3. Florida State
4. LSU
5. USC
6. Notre Dame
7. Tennessee
8. Georgia Tech
9. Miami
10. Clemson

My list is narrowed down to these five schools and in order:
1. Alabama (Currently the best program near my home)
2. Florida State (I like what FSU is doing with coaches and recruiting and I am a fan)
3. Clemson (I like the history and small college town feel)
4. Miami (I respect their history and they are coming back and close to home)
5. Florida (Could have easily been my #1 but the recent uncertainty surrounding Urban Meyer is a huge concern)

Another Commitment


4 Star WR Kenny Shaw 6'0" 175lbs of Dr. Phillips High School in Orlando committed to the Noles on the Under Armor All Star Game. He had offers from UF, Miami, LSU, UGA, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Michigan, and Ohio State. He was recruited by Dawsey and Trickett.

Chop It Up Seminoles!

A Perfect Ending


Florida State beat #16 West Virginia 33 to 21 in Bobby Bowden's and Mickey Andrew's last game. After a typical start by the FSU defense the Seminoles started getting after the Mountaineers and provided an "old school" glimpse of swarming defense and knocked out West Virginia's starting QB Jarrett Brown. After that it was blood in the water as the Noles came after true freshman QB Geno Smith.

The defense was helped tremendously by FSU's offensive game plan which put up 415 total yards with 226 yards rushing. This caused a huge disparity in time of possession in favor of FSU 37:07 to 22:53. Redshirt Freshman QB Manuel was perfect. He played within his means and didn't turn the ball over.

Since Starting the season 2-4 FSU went 5-2 the rest of the way and 3-1 with Manuel at QB. The future is bright.

It was great to see Bowden throw down the spear. Thanks Coach Bowden for all the great memories and I hope you have a long and healthy retirement. God Bless!
