Florida State was Chris Parson's dream school growing up.
As he became a varsity star in the state of Texas before moving to Tennessee as a junior, he amassed enough recruiting attention to get on Mike Norvell's radar. The offer came June 10, 2021, and he would be committed to the program publicly by July 22, exactly six weeks later to commemorate his birthday.
Most other programs saw the Brentwood (Tenn.) Ravenwood quarterback prospect as rock solid to the FSU program, especially with it being his childhood dream school. Then his 2021 tape—showing legitimate dual-threat elements including accounting for 42 total touchdowns and more than 3,300 yards from scrimmage—got out.
