Jordan Travis

Quarterback transfer Jordan Travis has committed to Florida State, Travis told Noles247.

The Louisville transfer posted “committed” and put up a picture of the old FSU logo on Wednesday evening. Travis confirmed his decision to transfer to FSU from Louisville to Nole247’s Josh Newberg.

"It's been a dream my entire life. I feel like it will be a great opportunity for me to succeed in life as a person and player," Travis told Noles247. "Coach [Kendal] Briles is a great coach and [I] look forward to work with him."

Travis is a former three-star quarterback from The Benjamin School in North Palm Beach, Fla. He was ranked as the No. 25 dual-threat quarterback in the 2018 recruiting cycle and transferred from Louisville after one season in which he redshirted.

FSU's staff likes Travis' athleticism. He was targeted by the staff upon their arrival in Tallahassee last year, but he signed with Louisville in the Early Signing Period and FSU simply didn't have enough time to make a legitimate play at Travis.

With the hiring of Briles as FSU's coordinator and play caller, the Seminoles want true dual-threat quarterbacks on the roster and Travis fits the bill. Travis was 130-of-213 for 2,190 yards with 24 touchdowns as a senior at the Benjamin School, and he also rushed for 905 yards on 70 carries (11.8 yards yards per carry) and added 16 touchdowns on the ground.

FSU now has three scholarship quarterbacks in the fold, with Travis joining redshirt senior Deondre Francois and redshirt sophomore James Blackman. Both Francois and Blackman have starting experience, although it's unclear if Francois intends to return to FSU for his senior season. Francois has weighed other options such as transferring or declaring for the NFL Draft, but not decision had been reached as of last week.

It's unclear if Travis will be able to declare for a hardship waiver in order to be immediately eligible at FSU. It sounds like FSU will explore this option, per a source.

Travis' brother, Devon Travis, played baseball at FSU from 2010-12 and was an All-ACC honoree at second base. He played for the Toronto Blue Jays this past season.
