Jasen Lopez committed to the Seminoles on Thursday

Charlie Ward is smiling somewhere, seeing Florida State’s newest commitment as 4-star WR and two-sport athlete, Jasen Lopez, committed to Florida State on Thursday in a post from On3’s Hayes Fawcett. Lopez will also play basketball, he announced in his commitment, which would make him the second two-sport athlete on Florida State’s football team, along with BJ Gibson, who played baseball last spring.

Lopez plays high school football at South Florida powerhouse Chaminade-Madonna and won Broward County Player of the Year after playing football and basketball in his junior season.

Miami was thought to be the favorite for Lopez as the Hurricanes received his final official visit, but Mike Norvell, head basketball coach Luke Loucks and wide receiver coach Tim Harris Jr. found a way to bring him to Tallahassee. The athletic department has not been afraid of bringing in multi-sport athletes and Lopez joins a long list of Seminoles to play two in two different vocations.
