2028 four-star quarterback Brady Quinn, a guy whose recruitment has absolutely picked up a ton of steam, is finally making his very first game day visit to Florida State this Saturday when the Seminoles host the New Mexico State Aggies. This isn’t just another campus tour; it’s a critical moment for FSU as they push hard to land the Chaminade-Madonna High School star. He’s already taken an unofficial trip to Tallahassee last March, sure, but stepping onto campus when the stands are rocking? That’s a whole different vibe, and per Steve Wiltfong of Rivals, it’s happening this weekend.
Brady Quinn Is More Than Just a Name, He’s a Problem for Defenses
Look, this kid is legit, no doubt about it. Rivals ranks him as the No. 284 player nationally, but more importantly for signal-caller hungry schools, he’s stamped as the No. 18 quarterback in the entire country. And in the state of Florida, where everyone knows the talent runs deep, he’s still the No. 36 recruit. His high school stats? They absolutely back up all that hype. As a freshman, Quinn completed a solid 55.7% of his passes, piling up 2,549 yards and throwing 33 touchdowns against just nine interceptions. That’s a freshman season most guys only dream about. But he didn’t stop there. He got better.
The Stakes Are Sky-High With More Powerhouses in the Hunt
His sophomore year, Quinn showed some serious growth, hitting 60.4% of his throws for an even more impressive 2,960 yards. He chucked 37 touchdowns and only had 10 interceptions, showing he’s getting even sharper with the ball. Oh, and don’t forget he’s a dual-threat too; he added another 275 yards and four scores on the ground as a runner. That kind of production is why every big-name program wants him. FSU isn’t just battling New Mexico State this Saturday; they’re battling the Florida Gators, SMU Mustangs, and the Purdue Boilermakers, who are all recruiting Quinn super hard, along with the UCLA Bruins. And speaking of the Bruins, Quinn already has another big-time visit locked in for just two weeks after his FSU trip, heading out west to watch UCLA play the San Diego State Aztecs on September 12. So yeah, this weekend’s FSU visit? It’s not just big, it’s absolutely critical for the Seminoles to make a lasting impression and show Quinn what a game day truly feels like in Tallahassee.
