The FSU Seminoles are enjoying a hot streak on the recruiting trail, landing seven commitments in June. While he is far from committing, they also improved their standing with 2028 safety Phoenix Evans after his visit to Tallahassee.
“It was one of my best visits, not gonna lie,” Evans told Noles247.
“Florida State stood out a lot today, like they did a great job with everything,” he added. “They truly made me feel like a big priority for them, and yes of course other schools have made me feel like that as well, but Florida State did their big one.”
One of the things he enjoyed the most about being on campus was his meeting with FSU head coach Mike Norvell, whom Phoenix raved about.
“I also had an amazing meeting with Coach Norvell,” Evans said. “He’s very supportive, honest, and energetic. He’s a great head coach and a big people’s guy and I’d love to be around someone like that every day.”
Evans is ranked as the No. 141 overall player and No. 11 safety in the 247Sports composite. While he is originally from Ramsey, New Jersey, he transferred to IMG Academy ahead of his junior season.
The 5-foot-10, 160-pounder had a productive sophomore season at Don Dosco Prep, helping them go 11-1. He finished the year with 39 tackles, 2.0 tackles for loss, 11 pass breakups, and one fumble recovery.
