The FSU Seminoles have added another player maker to their 2027 recruiting class, receiving a commitment from wide receiver Majay Thompson on Friday.
He is the second wide receiver that Florida State has landed, and they had to beat out the Georgia Bulldogs, Alabama Crimson Tide, and Wake Forest Demon Deacons to do so. He is a nice pairing with four-star Sean Green and is coming off a strong junior season.
Thompson finished the year with 53 receptions for 865 yards and 13 touchdowns, averaging 16.3 yards per catch. He is ranked as the No. 627 overall player and No. 79 safety in the 247Sports composite. The 5-foot-11, 181-pounder is also the No. 21 player from North Carolina.
FSU’s recruiting class is focused on the front seven, with five of its 11 commitments set to play along the defensive line or at linebacker. The class is led by four-star linebacker Jernard Albright, their highest-rated commit and the only one ranked among the top 200 players in the country.
The Seminoles now have 11 total commitments and have the No. 56 recruiting class in the country according to the 247Sports team rankings. Here is how FSU’s recruiting class compares to the rest of the ACC.
