Florida State picked up a huge victory over Oregon Wednesday morning.
Josh Sweat (Oscar Smith High School – Chesapeake, Virginia), the No. 1 defensive end recruit, and the No. 6 player overall (247Sports) in the nation, announced a verbal commitment to Florida State. He chose the Seminoles over the Ducks, Ohio State, Georgia and Virginia Tech.
Sweat visited Oregon this past weekend. He announced a day later that he would be making his college decision on Wednesday.

Eugene was LIT! #WTD

Sweat tore his ACL and early on in his senior season. However, the injury didn’t detract any interest from college teams. In 247Sports rankings, he dropped from the No. 1 player in the country, to the No. 6 ranked recruit.
At The Opening, a summer combine for starred high school recruits, Sweat wowed people with his performance.

Why coaches want Josh Sweat? He dominated at The Opening w/ a 4.46-second time in the 40-yard dash, a 4.2 shuttle & 39-inch vertical leap.
