As of Wednesday, players in the NCAA Transfer Portal can once again take college visits for a short window lasting into the weekend. Florida State will take advantage of this visit period and is set to likely host about ten Transfer Portal players on campus this week as they aim to upgrade their roster heading into an intriguing 2024 football season.
The Seminoles already hold commitments from two prospects in the portal with legacy edge rusher, and former Georgia Bulldog, Marvin Jones Jr. as well as veteran Oregon State quarterback transfer DJ Uiagalelei in the boat.
The Seminoles are actively seeking additions across various positions on their roster to fill the void left by the departure of several key contributors following a successful 2023 season in Tallahassee. Below is a comprehensive overview of the transfer visitors set to join FSU this week, providing all the pertinent details you need to know.
Florida State is actively pursuing quality additions to bolster their offensive line, a unit that, despite its experienced roster, faced challenges during the 2023 season. Pearson Toomey, an offensive line transfer from Furman, has emerged as a key target for the Seminoles.
Toomey, a fifth-year offensive lineman hailing from Jacksonville Beach, will be in Tallahassee from Wednesday through Friday as he explores potential options for his final year of eligibility. After entering the transfer portal in mid-December, Toomey swiftly garnered scholarship offers from notable programs such as South Carolina, Texas A&M, Michigan State, Pitt, USF, and others.
With a three-year starting stint at Furman, Toomey earned All-Southern Conference 1st Team honors in both 2022 and 2023. His impressive performance in 2023, marked by a 77.7 PFF Grade, included a standout game against South Carolina, a program that also anticipates his visit during this transfer window.
Standing at 6-foot-3 and weighing 295 pounds, Toomey played left tackle at Furman but is expected to transition to the guard position at the P4 level. His experience and accolades make him a sought-after addition to Florida State’s offensive line as they aim to strengthen their lineup for the upcoming season.
