Keon Coleman latest Florida State star to enter NFL draft​

Florida State receiver Keon Coleman said he plans to enter the NFL draft, adding yet another name to the extensive list of Seminoles who will have a new home in 2024. Coleman transferred to Florida State in May and made an instant impact, catching three touchdowns in the Seminoles' Week 1 win over LSU. Coleman battled injuries and inconsistency at times this season, but he still finished with 50 catches for 658 yards and 11 touchdowns, as well as 25 punt returns for 300 yards. He currently is 12th on ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr.'s 2024 NFL draft Big Board. In 2022 at Michigan State, Coleman had 58 receptions for 798 yards and seven touchdowns.

Kirby Smart laments FSU opt-outs after Georgia's Orange Bowl rout​

The two top-ranked teams outside the College Football Playoff faced off in the Capital One Orange Bowl, but only sixth-ranked georgia looked the part Saturday -- and that led to some frustration from Bulldogs coach Kirby Smart. Georgia demolished No. 5 Florida State in what was the largest margin of victory in bowl history, topping the Bulldogs' 58-point win over TCU in last season's national championship game. But the lopsided score was due, in part at least, to a host of opt-outs and injuries for the Seminoles.

"People need to see what happened tonight, and they need to fix this," Smart said, lamenting the flood of opt-outs and portal entries on teams playing in non-playoff bowl games. "It needs to be fixed. It's very unfortunate that they have a good football team and a good football program and they're in the position they're in."

The Seminoles played without their top two quarterbacks, top two running backs, top two receivers, starting tight end, three starting defensive linemen, two of three starting linebackers and three starting defensive backs. They were down 29 scholarship players in all. Florida State beat Louisville 16-6 in the ACC championship game with third-string quarterback Brock Glenn at the helm of a lackluster offense, and the committee used that performance -- and the injury to star quarterback Jordan Travis that preceded it -- as rationale for keeping an undefeated Power 5 team from the playoff.

Jordan Travis helps FSU land transfer QB DJ Uiagalelei​


After finishing up an All-American career, Jordan Travis left a parting gift to Florida State. DJ Uiagalelei committed to FSU on Monday and told ESPN a conversation with Travis played a big role in his decision. Uiagalelei said he had long been an admirer of both coach Mike Norvell and Florida State's aggressive offensive schemes. But he learned more about the program from Travis. Uiagalelei's commitment marks a significant addition for Florida State, which was down to one scholarship quarterback, Brock Glenn, for Saturday's Orange Bowl loss to Georgia.

He has started 40 career games with a 30-10 record, throwing for 8,319 yards and 57 touchdowns. His decision will mark a return to the ACC, where he began his career at Clemson as a heralded recruit from Southern California. He played for the Tigers for three seasons before transferring to Oregon State last year. FSU hosts Clemson in 2024, which will surely be a highly publicized reunion. Uiagalelei flashed improvement during his most recent stop at Oregon State, and he showed a jump in his development under Smith and Lindgren in 2023.

Georgia opens as betting favorite to win 2025 CFP​


Georgia enters the offseason as the consensus betting favorite to win next year's national championship, the first to be decided by a 12-team playoff. The Bulldogs were listed with 17-4 odds Monday at ESPN BET, followed by Alabama at 6-1 and Ohio State at 8-1. It's the second straight season the Bulldogs have been the preseason favorites. Michigan beat Washington in Monday's championship game, but with questions surrounding coach Jim Harbaugh's future, the Wolverines were listed at 9-1 for next season's title, along with Texas. The Wolverines and Longhorns play in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on Sept. 7. Washington begins the offseason as a 60-1 long shot at ESPN BET. The six highest-ranked conference champions will receive automatic bids to next year's College Football Playoff, with the top four teams receiving first-round byes. The six highest-ranked teams remaining will round out the 12-team field.

Cristobal is 12-13 in his first two seasons at his alma mater after a 7-6 campaign in 2023. His Miami team opens next season at in-state rival Florida on Aug. 31.
 
acc court filing accuses fsu of breach of contract, seeking damages
The ACC had initially filed a claim on Dec. 21 to protect the league's grant of rights, which runs through 2036. FSU filed the next day in Leon County (Florida), claiming that the ACC restrained trade and breached the contract and citing years of mismanagement in the league. It began what promises to be a prolonged legal battle to test the legality of the ACC's grant of rights agreement.
 

The league previously unveiled its seven-year scheduling model through 2030, with annual conference opponents for each team. Although teams knew which other teams they would be playing this coming season, on Wednesday they found out their exact dates. Each team will play eight conference games per season, with all 17 teams playing each other at least twice over the next seven seasons. The three new conference members in Cal, SMU, and Stanford will all play their first-ever ACC games at different times throughout the season.
 

FSU names ex-ACC boss John Swofford in amended complaint​


The Florida State board of trustees has filed an amended complaint to its lawsuit against the ACC, alleging the conference engaged in "self-dealing" when former commissioner John Swofford made media rights deals that cost member schools "millions of dollars" while helping his son. The 59-page amended complaint, filed Monday night in Leon County, Florida, and obtained by ESPN, adds onto the allegations of "chronic fiduciary mismanagement and bad faith" that Florida State made in its first lawsuit, filed on Dec. 22. Florida State is seeking declaratory judgment to void the league's grant of rights and withdrawal fee as "unreasonable restraints of trade in the state of Florida and not enforceable in their entirety against Florida State." Raycom had a long partnership with the ACC but was struggling financially, and it needed to keep a package of ACC media rights for survival, according to the complaint. Chad Swofford worked for Raycom at the time and eventually became a vice president and general manager at the company.
