Florida State’s Hopes for a Turnaround Rest on Thomas Castellanos
The 2024 season was a dismal one for Florida State football, with a 2-10 record that left fans and coaches alike searching for answers. This offseason, the Seminoles are looking to regroup and refocus, and one player who could hold the key to their success is quarterback transfer Thomas Castellanos.
Castellanos, who began his career as a recruit for Florida State before signing with UCF and later transferring to Boston College, is no stranger to the Seminoles. His dual-threat abilities made him a solid contributor for the Eagles in 2023, but he struggled with turnovers, throwing 14 interceptions.
Despite his struggles, Castellanos’s potential is undeniable, and he could be just what the Seminoles need to spark their offense. With former quarterback DJ Uiagalelei’s inconsistencies and the team’s overall struggles on offense, Castellanos’s arrival could be a breath of fresh air.
This offseason, Castellanos has been putting in the work, participating in workouts with the wide receivers. This dedication and willingness to adapt could be crucial in his development as a quarterback and his ability to lead the Seminoles to success.
For Coach Mike Norvell and the Seminoles, the 2025 season is pivotal. With a talented roster and a renewed sense of focus, they’re looking to put the disappointments of 2024 behind them and make a push for championship contention. If Castellanos can live up to his potential and provide the spark the offense needs, the Seminoles could be in for a very successful season indeed.
