National Signing Day: Jimbo Fisher is Dominating Recruiting
Before he was the head coach Jimbo Fisher helped recruit top players to Florida State. Things may have been a little easier them. The pitch was, "Hey come play for the historic Bobby Bowden". It may have worked on some kids but others bolted to different schools for the fresh young coaches.
Now Fisher is one of those coaches. He is on his way to turning Florida State back into the the winning ways of old. His 2011 class is filled with speed. The main focus for the Seminoles recruiting is to strengthen it's defense.
The best safety in the class of 2011 has already committed to FSU. Karlos Williams is a five star recruit and is one of several other defenders signing for the Seminoles . If they can convince Tony Steward to follow them we'll be talking about Florida States defense for the next couple years.
The other defenders that have committed to Florida State are: safeties Tyler Hunter, Keelin Smith, and Lamarcus Brutus, cornerback Nick Waisome, defensive tackle Nile Lawrence-Stample, and outside linebacker Arrington Jenkins. They are all four star recruits.
Defense wins championships and that's what Jimbo Fisher is after. They'll need Tony Steward to stay in the top three in the recruiting rankings.
