FSU football has built a great foundation within the 2025 freshman class. The Seminoles acquired two offensive prospects in five-star offensive lineman Solomon Thomas and four-star quarterback Tramell Jones Jr.
However, the coaching staff is not yet finished signing a promising player who will receive a lot of attention on the offensive side of soccer. As fans well know, Florida State head football coach Mike Norvell's offensive scheme revolves around his ability to run the football at an effective level.
Florida State had the privilege of receiving the services of redshirt junior running back Trey Benson, who gained 1,895 yards and 25 touchdowns during his two-year career with the Seminoles. However, the former Oregon State transfer has now declared for the 2024 NFL Draft. You'll have to rely on the work of Roydell Williams, Lawrence Toafili, Kazaiah Holmes, Jaylin Lucas, Sam Singleton, Cam Davis, Mikahi Dungey, and more.
A great program like Florida State looking to maintain a high level of success needs to continue acquiring talent at the position, regardless of the current state of the running back room.
The Seminoles have been heavily involved with three running back prospects for the 2025 recruiting cycle, including four-star Alvin Henderson, four-star Ousmane Kroma and four-star Byron Lewis.
Speaking of Henderson, crystal ball prophecies say the Elba (Alabama) standout will favor the Auburn Tigers after taking an unofficial visit to their campus in June 2023. was receiving. However, he still decided not to go to university.
The primary recruiter at Auburn is former running backs coach Kadaric Williams, who recently resigned from the program about two weeks ago. This could ultimately pave the way for Florida State to have an advantage.
Henderson posted a photo on his Twitter (X) account of himself with head football coach Mike Norvell and running backs coach David Johnson.

This is a running back prospect the Seminoles can't pass up. During the 2023 season, Henderson had 225 rushing attempts, 3,523 rushing yards, and 61 touchdowns. If Florida State were able to pry him from Alabama, it would be huge for this coaching staff in terms of recognition among recruits.
