From the Pacific islands to American Heritage High School, Florida State’s transfer class covers more than 6,000 miles, includes two players from archrivals, five from the school that took the Seminoles’ playoff spot and several of Polynesian descent.
Fourteen players are looking to make a fresh start after leaving their previous schools for various reasons. While each player has a unique journey, the story of this class begins with a familiar name.
Marvin Jones Jr.’s story is well-known. The son of a Seminole legend, he rose through the ranks at the South Florida powerhouse American Heritage to become a five-star defensive end.
