Summary

Destyn Hill made it to Florida State at long last. The saga spanned nearly three years from the time he silently committed to FSU and was one of the longest, most improbable recruiting developments we've ever covered. Zach Blostein and Brendan Sonnone break down his arrival to FSU, his projected role with the Seminoles, and try to grasp the fever dream of a recruitment. We then delve into what's next at safety after Jaylen Key picks Alabama over FSU, and get into a lengthy discussion with Keon Coleman and how we think that recruitment shakes out.
