As a Seminole, the Alabama native played in 12 games and totaled 47 tackles, four for a loss, one sack, and a forced fumble. His last year with the 'Noles exhausted his eligibility as a student-athlete, and the 6'5'', 219-pound linebacker could find success at the next level.

Florida State brought in linebacker transfers Elijah Herring (Memphis), Caleb LaValle (North Carolina), Stefon Thompson (Nebraska), and currently hold the No. 5 transfer class in the country.
