The Florida State Seminoles are still looking for their first wide receiver commit in the 2027 recruiting class, and their board just got a little smaller. Four-star target Anthony Jennings committed to the Florida Gators on Saturday, picking them over the Seminoles, Auburn Tigers, Syracuse Orange, and Maryland Terrapins.Jennings is from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and has elite speed, making him a good fit for FSU's passing attack. The Seminoles have been recruiting Jennings since January 2025, when they offered him a scholarship and were set to host him on an official visit this summer, something that is now in doubt.He is ranked as the No. 273 overall player and No. 34 wide receiver in the 247Sports composite.
He is also the No. 25 player from Florida.He had a strong junior season at Dillard High School, showcasing the speed that made so many schools covet him. He finished the year with 34 receptions for 823 yards and 11 touchdowns, leading them in all three areas and averaging 24.2 yards per catch.It has been a struggle for FSU wide receivers coach Tim Harris Jr. in the 2027 cycle, with several blue-chip targets committing elsewhere. However, they are in the mix for several other top targets, including four-star prospects Jamarin Simmons, Sean Green, Jabari Watkins, and Cam Wade.BREAKING: Four-Star WR Anthony Jennings has Committed to Florida, he tells me for @Rivals⁰The 6’1 175 WR chose the Gators over Syracuse and Auburn“Gator Nation I’m Home.
