As Florida State continues to build on its momentum as a top contender in college football, rumors are swirling about their interest in New Mexico quarterback Devon Dampier. The 6’4″ dual-threat QB has been making waves with his impressive performances, leading many to believe that he could be a valuable addition to FSU’s roster.
Dampier has shown flashes of brilliance during his time at New Mexico, displaying both a strong arm and the ability to make plays with his legs. Last season, he threw for over 2,500 yards and accounted for 25 total touchdowns, making him one of the most dynamic quarterbacks in the Mountain West Conference. His ability to extend plays and create opportunities outside the pocket has drawn attention from several Power 5 programs, including Florida State.
FSU’s coaching staff, led by head coach Mike Norvell, has been on the lookout for a quarterback who can lead the Seminoles into the future. With current QB Jordan Travis entering his final season, Florida State may be seeking a quarterback to groom for the next era of FSU football. Dampier’s versatility and potential could make him an ideal candidate for that role.
While no official offer has been made yet, reports suggest that Florida State has been actively evaluating Dampier, and it’s clear that he is on their radar. The Seminoles have long been known for developing elite quarterbacks, and adding Dampier to their fold could give them a future star who could push the program to new heights.
As the recruitment process heats up, all eyes will be on whether Florida State can land Dampier or if another program swoops in to secure the promising quarterback. One thing is for sure: Dampier’s future is bright, and it could very well include a move to a top-tier program like Florida State.
