The Daily Nole — Aug. 12, 2018: FSU Secondary in Athlon’s Top 10

It’s Sunday, Florida State fans. As your weekend winds down, keep it here for the latest in FSU athletics. The news and notes section of this post will be updated throughout the day.

Lead Story

When it comes to the secondary, Florida State’s group is expected to be one of the best in the country.

In a piece by Athlon Sports from Friday, the Seminoles have the eighth-best defensive backs unit. That unit is headlined by cornerback Levonta Taylor, but fellow corners Kyle Meyers, Carlos Becker, hybrid Stanford Samuels III and safeties Cyrus Fagan and Hamsah Nasirildeen are all very talented.

Topping the list of top defensive backs was Washington. The Seminoles ranked highly despite losing starters Derwin James and Tarvarus McFadden.
