FSU Football: Portal Frenzy for 2026
13 Dec
Summary
- FSU seeks portal reinforcements after losing veteran offensive linemen.
- Quarterback is a key position of need for Florida State's 2026 season.
- Linebacker and secondary depth are also identified as portal priorities.
Florida State football continues its reliance on the transfer portal for the 2026 season, a strategy that has yielded mixed results but remains crucial for program success. Coach Mike Norvell, despite signing a large 2026 recruiting class, recognizes the need to supplement his roster with experienced talent from the portal.
The Seminoles are facing significant turnover, particularly on the offensive line, where all starters from the 2025 season are ineligible. Reinforcements are also needed in the secondary and linebacker corps, with key players departing. Quarterback remains a primary focus, with the team actively exploring options to ensure stability and competitiveness.
Potential portal targets include quarterbacks like Colton Joseph, Jaden Craig, and Marcus Stokes, though securing a proven signal-caller is paramount. Beyond quarterback, FSU is eyeing additions at edge rusher and a familiar linebacker in Tavion Wallace. These strategic portal acquisitions are vital for the Seminoles' aspirations in the upcoming season.
