Derwin James and Jaiden Woodbey share a lot of similarities while coming to FSU football in totally different fashions.
James committed to the Noles extremely early in high school and had a FSU tattoo before every enrolling.
Woodbey didn’t get an offer until the last-minute before visiting and deciding to commit to the Noles.
However, both were highly recruited five-star safeties coming out of high school with Woodbey patterning much of his game after James.
It must have been surreal for Woodbey to see James congratulate him on being named an ESPN Freshmen All-American on Twitter:
Congrats Lil bro you up next keep eating https://t.
