Florida State Seminoles commitment Brendan Gant took his official visit to FSU this weekend. Gant did not sign during the early period, saying he was going to take some visits.

After his trip to FSU, where does his recruitment stand?

“I shut it down,” Gant told Chris Nee of Noles247. “I was thinking about taking a visit, but I know where I want to be.”

Gant said he had already made that decision before he stepped on campus. He wasn’t there this weekend to be recruited, Gant says he just wanted to enjoy some relaxing time with his future teammates and coaches.

“It was good to come and just get away. Not really visiting, just being around everybody felt good. I got to come around the city a little more and get familiar with things.”

Current FSU receiver Adarius Dent hosted Gant on his official visit.

“He’s funny, really outgoing,” Gant said.

Gant also spent time with his future defensive back coach, Harlon Barnett. Gant says that after meeting with the staff he sees himself as a safety in FSU’s scheme.

“[Harlon Barnett] told me to find my into the system, stay on the film, stay on the studies, to stay on the paperwork, learn the techniques and all that and I’ll fit right in.”



Gant can’t wait to get to campus and start his career at FSU.

“Our class is something special, at all positions, we’re connected and close. The DB’s are all on the same page too, we all want to come up here, work and be great.”
