Safety target from Tennessee sets spring visit with FSU

2027 three-star safety Loia Valade will be very busy during the spring months. He is locking a ton of visits, 10 to be exact. Florida State extended an offer to Valade back in February.

On April 13, they will get to host him for the first time, per Brian Dohn of 247Sports . He will also take trips to see Tennessee, Kentucky, Florida, Ole Miss, Indiana, Syracuse, Duke, Miami, and Louisville. Valade was a productive two-way player on the high school level despite being listed as a safety.

He registered 21 tackles, two interceptions, and three pass breakups as a junior last season. Valade has also put up 43 receptions for 664 yards and seven touchdowns as a wide receiver over the last two seasons at McCallie High School. He will play at Knoxville Catholic in 2026.

247Sports has Valade ranked as the No. 471 overall player and the No. 43 safety.
