Florida State football remains hot in the NCAA Transfer Portal.
The Seminoles nabbed their second commitment of the day Sunday and the fourth in three days when Indiana running back Jaylin Lucas announced his commitment to the Seminoles following his official visit Sunday to local media outside of the Moore Center.
The commitment came hours after Colorado State defensive lineman Grady Kelly announced his commitment.
The Seminoles have also gained commitments from LSU wide receiver Jalen Brown and Alabama defensive back Earl Little Jr. this weekend.
Lucas will join his brother and FSU receiver Ja’Khi Douglas in Tallahassee next season. The running back is also a threat in the return game and could be utilized as a gadget player in Mike Norvell’s offense. He also made official visits to Louisville, Oklahoma State, Penn State and Mississippi State before committing to FSU on his visit.
As a true freshman, Lucas returned 22 kickoffs for 592 yards and two touchdowns. In 2023, he had 572 yards on 22 kicks and added another kickoff return touchdown.
Lucas rushed 49 times for 271 yards and two scores in 2022 and had 67 carries for 275 yards and two scores this season.
He was ranked as the 104 athlete and 51st best player in the state of Louisiana in the 2022 recruiting class out of Terrebonne, Louisiana.
Lucas is FSU’s sixth portal addition in the winter cycle joining defensive end Marvin Jones Jr., (Georgia), quarterback DJ Uiagalelei (Oregon State), wide receiver Jalen Brown (LSU), defensive back Earl Little Jr. (Alabama) and defensive lineman Grady Kelly (Colorado State).
