— Kaden “🕷️”Howard (@d1snuggyy\_) May 4, 2026 If there’s one position FSU can generally pull an upset on the recruiting trail, it’s running back but pulling 2028 RB Ian Thomas and likely Five-Star out of Texas will be a tough pull: #AGTG After a great conversation with @TeamKamMartin , I am beyond blessed to say I’ve received an offer from @FSUFootball#NoleFamily 🍢@FootballTomball@handal\_dave@Mike\_Zierlein@TISDTHSpic.twitter.com/kNAjUUfARo
