4☆ ATH Ricky Knight III Commits Live On YouTube
Mike Norvell and the Florida State Seminoles were the first Power 5 program to offer Ricky way back in January. Of course our little brothers down in coral Gables scrambled to follow suit shortly thereafter along with a plethora of other D1 programs.
In the end it came down to da U and Coach Addae versus FSU and new DBs Coach Patrick Surtain Sr. After speaking with Knight III throughout the past month I have to say that him being the first to extend an offer and sitting down with Ricky before just about anyone else after arriving in Tally went along way here.

You might say, well dang this an upset, given West Palm Beach is so much closer to Miami than Tallahassee. You'd be mistaken though as you must consider the proximity of American Heritage to the Benjamin School (Coach Surtains former School and very close). In Ricky's words Surtain Sr. is '“from the crib”.
This makes the second four-star commitment for the Noles and on the defensive side to boot following the committment from Washington DC Edge DD Holmes. This should calm the fanbase down and launch the Seminoles several spots in the rankings. That said WE AINT DONE YET. We are still expecting at least another 2-4 commits in the month of July!
Some public commitment dates to look out for:
5☆ CB Charles Lester | July 28th
4☆ WR James Madison II | July 4th
4☆ TE Kylan Fox | July 4th
4☆ Elijah Moore | July 4th
