Florida State has gotten some excellent news when it comes to its 2027 recruiting class. Four-star prospect Jernard Albright is sticking with the Seminoles.
"Nah, I'm fully shut down," Albright told Kolby Crawford of Noles247.
Albright is the nation's No. 193 overall recruit and the No. 16 safety per 247Sports composite rankings. In the state of Georgia, he's the No. 21 prospect. He's being recruited as a linebacker by FSU.
The 6-foot-2, 205-pounder committed to Florida State back in June during a wave of pledges for the program that included four-star defensive lineman Sam LeJeune, four-star wide receiver Sean Green, and four-star running back Jayden Miles.
Linebackers coach and current interim defensive coordinator Ernie Sims played a major role
in Albright shutting his recruitment down.
"Coach Sims been with me since the start," Albright said. "Most definitely that shut me down, knowing he calmed my brain down and kept me on the right track."
As FSU looks to find its next head coach, getting a player like Albright to shut everything down is a good sign for the 2027 recruiting cycle.
