Blue-chip running back Ousmane Kromah has officially committed to Florida State University (FSU), choosing the Seminoles over a competitive offer from the University of Georgia. The commitment, which was announced recently, marks a significant win for FSU’s recruiting efforts and adds another dynamic player to their 2024 class.
Kromah, a standout at his high school in Virginia, had long been regarded as one of the top running back prospects in the nation. Known for his speed, vision, and physicality, he has impressed scouts and coaches alike with his ability to break tackles and gain yards after contact. Standing at 6 feet and weighing around 210 pounds, Kromah blends size with agility, making him a versatile weapon in both the running and passing game.
Florida State’s head coach Mike Norvell and his staff have made it a priority to strengthen their backfield, and Kromah’s commitment represents a key piece of that strategy. FSU’s rise in the college football ranks, coupled with their recent successes and strong recruiting class, undoubtedly played a role in Kromah’s decision. The Seminoles have been building momentum and Kromah’s addition further solidifies their offensive prospects for the upcoming seasons.
The decision to choose FSU over Georgia was a major surprise, as the Bulldogs were considered the frontrunner for much of Kromah’s recruitment. Georgia, with its reputation for developing elite running backs, was seen as a prime destination for Kromah. However, the Seminoles’ compelling pitch and promising future ultimately won out.
Kromah’s commitment is expected to have a ripple effect on Florida State’s recruiting, potentially attracting other top-tier recruits looking to join a program on the rise. As the 2024 season approaches, Kromah will look to make an immediate impact on the FSU football program.
