Florida State is getting into one of the most important periods of the year on the recruiting trail. In the coming weeks, a plethora of prospects will be making their way through Tallahassee for official visits.

The Seminoles have expanded the board during the offseason, identifying and offering rising seniors who weren't previously on the radar. At the same time, there were some recruits that Florida State already had an eye on.

Florida State secured a cornerback earlier this month, landing three-star DaYon Cooper over numerous programs.

With that being said, the Seminoles are evaluating other prospects at the position, including athletic defender Kamoni Adams out of South Georgia.

According to 247Sports' Benjamin Wolk, Adams will be at Florida State for an official visit from June 12-14. Arkansas and USF are also scheduled to host him as of now.

Florida State offered Adams nearly a year ago. However, there was a change in the defensive backfield following the 2025 campaign as the Seminoles fired Patrick Surtain Sr. and brought in Blue Adams as cornerbacks coach.

Regardless, the Seminoles have stayed involved and will get their shot this summer.

Kentucky, Arkansas, UCF, Wake Forest, North Carolina, Syracuse, SMU, Oregon State, Missouri, and Wisconsin have offered Adams since January.

During his junior season at Kell High School, Adams totaled 19 tackles and one interception. He also returned kickoffs and punts. Adams has serious speed, reporting a 100-meter time of 10.73 and a 200-meter time of 21.98.

The 6-foot-0, 170-pound cornerback is regarded as the No. 1087 overall prospect, the No. 99 CB, and the No. 113 recruit in Georgia in the 2027 class according to Rivals.
