2026 linebacker Karon Maycock commits to Florida State

Mike Norvell and the Florida State Seminoles have a new addition to their 2026 recruiting class, and it comes from a talented South Florida linebacker.

Karon Maycock is a 6’1”, 200 pound athlete from Miami Central High School. He is an underrated but very popular prospect and FSU likes him at linebacker, despite other schools recruiting him as a safety. This represents a nice victory on the trail over the Hurricanes in particular.

Florida State beat out the Alabama Crimson Tide, Arizona State Sun Devils, Florida Gators, Indiana Hoosiers, Louisville Cardinals, Miami Hurricanes, Missouri Tigers, Nebraska Cornhuskers, Oklahoma Sooners, Ole Miss Rebels, Penn State Nittany Lions, SMU Mustangs, and Texas A&M Aggies, among others, for Maycock’s verbal pledge.
