Florida State is searching for more talent in the secondary in its 2027 recruiting class. They landed a commitment from three-star athlete Dayon Cooper on Saturday, who they’re recruiting as a cornerback.

Speaking of cornerbacks, FSU held its second scrimmage of the spring, and blue-chip recruit Joshua Vilmael was in attendance. His visit went great, and the 6-foot-3, 185-pounder has locked in an official visit with the Seminoles for June 19, per Chris Nee of Noles247.

Vilmael received an offer from Florida State back in January. Getting him to set an official visit after his first trip to campus is a good sign for the Seminoles. Two weeks before he comes back to Tallahassee, Vilmael will take an official visit to Houston.

It was a productive junior campaign for Vilmael. He registered two interceptions, seven pass breakups, four forced fumbles, four blocked kicks, and three tackles for loss. He garnered All-District 21-6A First Team honors for his efforts.

The Fort Bend Travis High School star is the nation’s No. 235 prospect and the No. 29 cornerback per the 247Sports composite rankings. In the state of Texas, Vilmael is the No. 33 recruit.
