Chastan Brown, 4-star OT, commits to Florida State

Florida State University has secured a commitment from four-star offensive tackle Chastan Brown, who officially pledged to the Seminoles during his visit on Sunday. Brown, a 6-foot-7, 270-pound prospect from Warner Robins, Georgia, previously decommitted from UCF following the hiring of former head coach Gus Malzahn and offensive line coach Herb Hand at Florida State. His commitment adds to an impressive 2025 recruiting class that now includes 23 prospects, boosting their ranking from 19th to 16th nationally according to 247Sports. Brown has been noted for his physical potential, though he will require development in a collegiate strength program to maximize his abilities. The Seminoles’ recruiting efforts have gained momentum under the new coaching staff, emphasizing the importance of recruiting in contrast to past strategies centered around the transfer portal. With Brown's addition, Florida State continues to build a formidable offensive line for the future.
