Quality. Quantity. Quandary. | FSU Signs a Big Class Amid Big Uncertainty

Florida State landed a large 2026 signing class.
✅ 32 total signees
✅ A potential quarterback of the future in Jaden O’Neal

From a pure numbers standpoint, this class checks the Quantity box. But is the Quality there?

And even if it is: Can this class (or any future class) thrive in the current state of the program?
 • The current coaching staff hasn't come close to delivering on The Standard.
 • The whole football operation is about to undergo major restructuring: Allegedly.
 • And financial pressures — from NIL to facilities — are adding complexity to FSU’s next chapter

Garnet & Old takes a step back to ask:
 • Is this a class built to compete — or to stabilize?
 • Can a Norvell staff develop these players amid instability?
 • And will the program’s long-term prospects live up to its elite legacy?

The numbers are solid. The talent remains to be seen.
But the quandary lies in everything off the field.
