Florida State filled out the bulk of its 2026 recruiting class throughout the summer.

Entering the fall, the Seminoles are in a good spot, sitting among the top-15 in the country while evaluating the potential final additions to #Tribe26.

There are a few positions that Florida State still needs to address, such as defensive end, offensive tackle, and running back.

After landing four-star linebacker Izayia Williams in August, Florida State has three verbal commitments at the position. That isn't stopping the coaching staff from continuing to explore other options.

On Friday evening, FSU offered a scholarship to three-star linebacker Jacob Curry, who referred to head coach Mike Norvell and defensive coordinator Tony White when revealing the news on social media.

Norvell attended part of Curry's game against St. Augustine High School.

Curry has visited Florida State a few times throughout his recruitment. The Seminoles will be looking to get him back in Tallahassee in the near future.

Blessed to earn an offer from Florida State University. Thank you @Coach_Norvell for coming to watch Nease play tonight. I’m grateful for the opportunity. 🍢🍢 @FSUCoachTW @FSUFootball pic.twitter.com/RK5in1Lh9H

The Florida native was previously committed to Northwestern. He has an upcoming official visit planned to Oklahoma.

In recent months, Curry has added offers from Ohio State, Baylor, and the Sooners.

Through the first four games of his senior season at Nease High School, Curry has totaled 38 tackles, four tackles for loss, two sacks, one forced fumble, two pass deflections, and one blocked punt.

The 6-foot-1, 208-pound defender is regarded as the No. 411 overall prospect, the No. 3 S, and the No. 56 recruit in Florida in the 2026 class according to the 247Sports composite ratings.
