BREAKING: 4-Star RB DeZephen Walker Commits to Florida State, Igniting the Seminoles’ 2026 Class!
In a jaw-dropping recruiting development, 4-star running back DeZephen Walker has officially committed to Florida State University, bypassing top offers from Texas Tech, Missouri, and Auburn. The decision sends shockwaves across the college football world as the Seminoles land one of the most dynamic and physically gifted backs in the 2026 class.
Hailing from a competitive high school football powerhouse, Walker brings a rare combination of elite speed, raw power, and field vision that has college coaches across the country raving. At 5’11” and 205 pounds, he’s a game-changer with breakaway ability and the toughness to grind out yards between the tackles. Many analysts compare his running style to NFL stars like Nick Chubb and Josh Jacobs — a blend of finesse and force that makes him nearly unstoppable in open space.
What makes this commitment even more monumental is that Walker becomes the first running back pledge in FSU’s 2026 recruiting class, laying a strong foundation for what could be a top-5 national haul. His decision reinforces the momentum Head Coach Mike Norvell and his staff are building in Tallahassee. The message is clear: Florida State is back — and top-tier talent believes it.
“I want to win championships,” Walker said in a brief statement. “FSU is where I see that happening. The culture, the coaching, the brotherhood — it felt like home.”
Florida State fans are already buzzing on social media, praising the coaching staff for locking down a player of Walker’s caliber. His commitment marks a turning point and serves notice to the rest of the ACC — the Seminoles are stacking talent and aiming high.
