Ricky Knight III brings four-star upside and depth at DB for Florida State
Knight is a promising **redshirt sophomore defensive back** for Florida State with legitimate recruit pedigree, having entered FSU as a four-star prospect and a top-ranked cornerback in the 2024 class. He has **game experience**, appearing in seven games in 2025 and logging his first career tackle, but he is still more projection than finished product. His appeal is in his size, athletic background, and developmental ceiling; the caution flag is that his production so far has been limited, and his recent suspension history makes reliability part of the evaluation.
