Four-Star FSU Tight End Commit Provides Recruitment Update with Signing Day Approaching
With just two weeks remaining until National Signing Day, the Florida State Seminoles are working hard to secure their commitment from Omaha (Neb.) Millard South four-star tight end Chase Loftin. The Seminoles initially landed Loftin’s pledge back in late June, successfully outmaneuvering notable programs like Texas A&M, Nebraska, and Missouri to gain his commitment.
However, Florida State’s situation has shifted significantly since that time. The Seminoles are enduring a challenging 2024 season, posting a disappointing 1-9 record. This poor performance has led to a wave of decommitments from high-profile prospects in their 2025 recruiting class, raising concerns about the stability of their program. Despite this, Loftin has continued to maintain communication with head coach Mike Norvell and the rest of the FSU coaching staff, reaffirming his commitment to the program.
Loftin’s continued loyalty to the Seminoles stands out amidst the uncertainty surrounding the team. As a highly regarded recruit, the 6-foot-5, 230-pound tight end is seen as a crucial building block for the Seminoles’ future. His size, athleticism, and versatility make him an exciting addition to FSU’s roster, and the coaching staff has consistently expressed confidence in his potential to make an impact on the field.
While the situation remains fluid, Florida State will need to work diligently over the coming weeks to solidify Loftin’s commitment. Other programs that previously vied for his services could potentially re-enter the picture, given the Seminoles’ current struggles. Still, Loftin’s continued engagement with Norvell and his staff offers hope that he will remain a cornerstone of FSU’s 2024 recruiting class.
With Signing Day rapidly approaching, all eyes will be on the Seminoles as they strive to hold onto one of their most prized commitments. For Loftin, the decision to remain committed to Florida State reflects a belief in the program’s long-term vision, despite its recent struggles. Whether the Seminoles can convince him to sign on the dotted line remains to be seen, but their efforts to retain him will undoubtedly be a top priority in the final days of this recruiting cycle.
