Chaminade Madonna’s Jasen Lopez is committing to Florida State.
That’s a win not only a win for Mike Norvell but also a win for men’s basketball coach Luke Loucks as Lopez plans to play for both programs next year.
FSU and Miami were neck and neck for the South Florida native before making his decision and announcing it to On3.com Thursday, June 26. North Carolina State and West Virginia were also in the mix as he visited all four schools this month.
Wide receiver coach Tim Harris Jr sealed the deal in landing the 5-foot-10, 165-dual-sport athlete. He also met with Loucks during his official visit. He will be the first Seminole commit in his 2026 class.
On the football side, Lopez is the fifth receiver and 20th player to pledge to the Seminoles in the 2026 class. According to 247 Sports’ composite rankings, Lopez is ranked No. 43 wide receiver and No. 19 in the state.
As a junior, Lopez recorded 87 catches for 1,300 yards and 14 TDs. On the court, he averaged 25 points, 2.2 assists, 6.4 rebounds and 4.1 steals a game.
FSU remains at No. 9 in 247 Sports’ team rankings.
