Elite LB target speaks on Florida State ahead of Thursday visit

The FSU Seminoles are doing everything they can to land 2027 four-star linebacker Kaden Henderson. With that said, an abundance of other contenders hosted they 6-foot-2, 218-pounder in March. Those schools were Miami, Tennessee, Texas A&M, and Florida.

However, Henderson grew up rooting for Florida State , and that gives them a leg up on the competition. He recently spoke about his recruitment ahead of his Thursday visit in Tallahassee, and he explained why the Seminoles will be tough to beat out. "I know a lot of people even ask me, 'Well, Kaden, why are you even taking a visit to Florida State?

' So I feel like just taking a visit in the first place shows I'm still interested. I'm still seeing what they have planned for me, the goals that I can achieve there. I told even the Florida staff that it's going to be hard to go to Florida because I'm a Florida State fan through my blood," Henderson told Noles247 .

Henderson would also mention that this particular visit with FSU is critical because they could separate themselves from all the other suitors. "That's the school I love the most regardless if I go there or I don't," said Henderson. "I feel like this visit is really going to dictate how I see the future of Florida State with me.
