Florida State got big news on Friday morning when Miami Central 2019 running back James Cook informed Jimbo Fisher of his commitment.

“I committed to Florida State,” Cook told Noles247. “They’ve showed me love and the coaches are great.”â€¨

Cook is excited about his commitment to the Seminoles.â€¨â€¨“I wanted to do it because it was the right decision and now is the right time.

“I’m going to bring a National Championship to Florida State,” he said.

Although he’s only a 2019 prospect, FSU assistant coach Tim Brewster has already been recruiting him for a year.

“Brewster is a good recruiter and he’s a good dude. You know he cares and is gonna take care of you.”

The one person that hasn’t found out about this decision yet is James Cook’s older brother - Dalvin Cook.

“He’s gonna get surprised. I haven’t told him yet,” Cook said with a laugh. “He’ll tell me it’s a great move. He’ll be real happy.”

Cook plans to take a trip to Tallahassee this spring. He’ll spend 3 or 4 days of his spring break in Tallahassee with the players and coaches.

Cook, who is 5-foot-11 and 182-pounds is bigger than his brother was at this point in their high school careers. The younger Cook says he looks up to his older brother on and off the field.

“I’m similar to him. I’m a leader on the field and get us to where we want to be, which is to win a championship,” he said.

Cook is FSU's second commitment toward the 2019 class.
