The Florida State Seminoles secured another elite defensive back recruit on Thursday, landing a legacy commitment from coveted cornerback Stanford Samuels III.
The 5-star prospect publicly revealed his intentions via Twitter:
He is the son of Stanford Samuels Jr., a former Florida State starter at cornerback who played with the program through 2003. The elder Samuels is approaching his first season as head coach at Flanagan High School (Broward County, Florida), where the Seminoles' newest pledge is a rising senior.
Samuels Jr. replaced fellow former Florida State standout Devin Bush Sr., who joined the University of Michigan staff shortly after his son, Devin Bush Jr.
