More on Ryan Sousa going to Florida & what happened?

Since this sounded pretty weird I wanted to check with a few people I trust when it comes to this situation. A few that are close to Ryan and a few that I know from the FSU side. The general consensus I've gotten is that Ryan wasn't getting a major push from the staff lately. In fact, Ryan called the staff this morning and said he was 50/50 in his decision and that UF gave him a lot to think about. FSU got the feeling he basically wanted to beg them and say how much FSU needs you here. FSU wasn't about to do that and moved on after that conversation. They told Sousa their main focus was on getting to the National Title. They want him, but their focus is Duke. I'm a little surprised by this, but FSU seemed to cool on Sousa from what I'm hearing. In fact, they haven't talked to him in about three weeks. I'm also told other guys, at least about five or six guys on the radar (not Robinson or Worton) are higher on the board. So it appears his stock apparently did drop to a certain extent. That could have been because of ones higher on the board or it could be just FSU not being in the playing games part of recruiting anymore. From the Sousa side, they didn't have a lot of confidence FSU was pushing as hard compared to when the season started. Take that how you want. On the flip side I've heard FSU has been talking or communicating a lot with JC Jackson, Javon Harrison, Darrell Langham and the other targets I've covered on the hot board. I still don't believe Worton ends up in this class. Robinson I could possibly see, but not Worton. Still a lot of options on the board guys and there will be new targets on the board as well. Get ready for some new names to emerge and I'll cover a few of them in the chat tomorrow. I don't expect FSU to reconnect with Sousa either

I wanted Pack to stick, I don't really care about Sousa flipping even tho he was productive. I don't really care for Worton or JoJo Robinson.

Pretty confident with this staff, the position of the team.

Michael L says that about every recruit we lose. There's always something behind the scenes. We never just get beat for a recruit. I think he was just a Gator at heart. He said it was his dream offer, and when he got the chance to commit in person, he did.

Do you have the recruit reactions from Warchant?

I don't know where this is from
QB JJ Cosentino: "I didn't see it cause I was winning a state playoff game. I'm glad they won and I wish I was playing in the warm weather like them."
LB Delvin Purifoy: "It was a great win, now they have to go show the rest of the country their improvements."
ATH Malique Jackson: "It was unbelievable but I knew Florida State would pull it out. 12-0."
JUCO OL Kareem Are: "Great win. They dominated and played real discipline."
S Trey Marshall: "Yeah I expected that. FSU is lookin good."
OL Corey Martinez: "They did their thing, played physical. The passing game was on point."
2015 DT Darvin Taylor: "I didn't see the game I was at my sisters volleyball game. But I was pleased to see the score."
2015 DE CeCe Jefferson: "Even the sorriest teams try to come out and play a little bit against their rivals."
WR Ryan Sousa: "Yes I took the official...It was a hard fought game by both opponents but FSU has too many threats on offense and Florida didn't. You know what they say.."
DT Adam Torres: "It was a good test for both sides of the ball. The offense proved themselves to be pretty stout. FSU's defense came up big too."
DT Arthur Williams: "Another impressive win for the Noles. I would have liked to see more points but it was an awesome game!"

8:20 a.m. Update
As Tom Loy reported yesterday afternoon, Chanhassen (Minn.) four-star offensive tackle Frank Ragnow will be visiting Florida State on the weekend of Dec. 13th for his official visit. Things are trending towards it being a battle between the Seminoles (current favorite) and Minnesota (local school having a strong season). Arkansas has faded with their play on the field and Wisconsin doesn't have as much traction as the Seminoles or Gophers.
Ragnow won't be the only top target at offensive tackle on campus on Dec. 13th. Last night I confirmed with Florissant (Mo.) Hazelwood Central four-star offensive tackle Roderick Johnson that he will officially visit the Seminoles that weekend. Florida State is the only official visit he has scheduled so far. The Seminoles have a strong lead for Johnson at this point.
8:30 a.m. Update
Spoke with Glen St. Mary (Fla.) Baker County five-star defensive lineman CeCe Jeffersonoutside The Swamp yesterday. At this time, his top two is Alabama and Florida. He is a long-time Gator fan and they still have traction with him despite their struggles on the field this season. Florida State is third for him. Florida State defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruittcontinues to put in work with Jefferson and hopes to make a surge at some point in his recruitment. During his last visit to FSU, the Seminoles essentially gave him tours/meetings similar to those that an official visitor takes. FSU is taking a very aggressive approach with the 2015 standout.
8:40 a.m. Update
Chatted earlier this week with Havana (Fla.) East Gadsden three-star offensive tackle Derrick Kelly. Kelly visited Florida State a few times this season, most recently for the Idaho game. The Kentucky commitment has continued to flirt with Florida State and it is a two-way interest. The Seminoles are keeping up with him, with defensive coordinator and area recruiter Jeremy Pruitt leading the charge. During the Idaho visit, Kelly and his family were shown around and had a meeting with multiple coaches, including Jimbo Fisher. Kelly told me this weekend he is 'interested' and that '(FSU) told me that they want me to play for FSU. They love the way I play and it seems like i have been very well coached.' I am told that the two parties are trying to figure out if he would be capable of being an early enrollee. FSU hasn't pushed for a switch, but they may depending on how some other offensive tackle targets trend (such as JUCO OT Chad Mavety who is set to decide soon between the Seminoles and Buckeyes).
9:50 a.m. Update
Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy four-star running back Bo Scarbrough unofficially visited Florida State in mid-November for the game against Syracuse. Florida State likes Scarbrough as a running back, but they also feel he could potentially play other positions due to his size/athleticism. The Alabama commitment enjoyed the visit and remains interested in the Seminoles. An official visit in January is being worked on, but not yet scheduled.

11:35 a.m. Update
I've talked to a couple sources and recruits this morning and I've picked up on a message the FSU staff has been giving recruits.
In home visits are about to start this week and the staff is telling recruits that FSU might not be the first team to see them because they have a season to finish and they want to put their time and focus into winning a National Title. I'm told the reaction has been a resounding understanding from recruits and parents.
It doesn't mean FSU won't do in home visits until the season is over, but it does mean they won't be doing as many. I haven't confirmed any visits for this week, I think there will be a few and we'll know more on that tomorrow.

12:45 p.m. Update
I've learned that Tim Brewster and Jay Graham will be in Miami today. The two FSU coaches will be doing an in home visit with 5-Star RB Dalvin Cook.

2:45 p.m. Update
Got an update on 4-star WR Travis Rudolph for you:
There were some rumors that Rudolph was going to make it to either UF or Auburn this weekend. I can confirm Rudolph did not go anywhere and watched both games from home.
I've also learned that Rudolph and the FSU staff spoke last night after the game.
Rudolph has one official visit remaining and that will be to Alabama on December 13th. I'm told he is working on making one more unofficial visit to FSU. It would likely come during bowl practice.
