Raymond Woodie visiting trio of top targets at American Heritage
Florida State coaches on the recruiting trail.
Noles247 has confirmed that Florida State assistant coach
Raymond Woodie is back down in Fort Lauderdale at American Heritage today to visit with five-star CB
Patrick Surtain Jr., five-star CB
Tyson Campbell and four-star DE/LB
Andrew Chatfield.
Chatfield is set for an official visit to Florida State this weekend, but Woodie is still trying to secure visits for Surtain Jr. and Campbell. Both seem to be an uphill battle at the moment, we'll have to see what comes of today's meeting. For FSU to have any shot at Surtain and Campbell they'll need to come in on an official visit.
We'll have more on Noles247 after these visits conclude later on today.

Greg Frey in Michigan to see five-star offensive tackle today
Florida State's Greg Frey is seeing one of the best OL in the country today.
Noles247 has learned that Florida State offensive line coach Greg Frey is in Michigan today to check in on five-star 2019 offensive tackle Devontae Dobbs. The Nation's No. 1 ranked tackle in the 2019 class has a good relationship with Frey from his time on the Wolverine coaching staff.
The Seminoles also offered Dobbs' 2021 teammate today. Damon Payne, a 6-foot-4, 255-pound pass rushing defensive end picked up his 5th offer when the Seminoles extended him a scholarship.
We'll have more on the visit with Dobbs later in the day.

Top247 LB has Florida official scheduled
All three Sunshine State powers are working to flip West Chester (Ohio) Lakota West Top247 LB Xavier Peters.
The first time West Chester (Ohio) Lakota West Top247 linebacker
Xavier Peters visited the state of Florida was earlier this month for the Under Armour All-American game.
Sounds like he could be a frequent visitor leading up to National Signing Day.
Committed to Kentucky since July, Florida, Florida State and Miami have all caught his eye.
“The last thing I heard he’s going to Florida to visit this weekend,” Lakota West coach Larry Cox said. “He has spoken with Florida State and Miami as well. We’ll see what comes of it
Peters has never really visited any other school besides Kentucky.
“Florida State was up this week for a home visit,” Cox said. “Miami came in for a home visit. I know Florida is coming in tomorrow too. But as he said at this point, he said coach, I still like Kentucky, but it’s one of those things I have to at least talk to these people and cross everything off before I sign my papers.”
Peters took his official to Lexington in December.
As far as a pecking order between the three Florida schools.
“I think he’s still learning about them,” Cox said.
247Sports ranks the 6-foot-4, 225-pound Peters as the nation’s No. 13 outside linebacker and No. 6 recruit in the state of Ohio.
