Tidbits from an FSU recruit blogger - from July 31, 2014:
Florida State recruiting: Will FSU really sign 3 quarterbacks?
By Bud Elliott  @SBNRecruiting on Jul 31 2014,
"Yes, Florida State really could sign all three quarterbacks. It may have doubted that the third would jump on board once the second had committed (and I am skeptical that they knew Locksley would jump on board just an hour before Francois), but it had a plan for this. ... FSU would accept the commitments.
I'd be surprised if all three stick with their current commitments to Florida State. Not shocked, but surprised.

In the last hour, We repeat HOUR, Jimbo Fisher and staff have pulled in two 4* Qbs in @LOCKSnLOADED_3 & @Deondre_3.

Loooooong way till Signing Day folks. And Locksley might be more ATH than QB. Still highly unlikely all three sign with FSU in Feb. #Noles

They all come with legitimate questions. People wonder if Francois will continue to develop better touch and feel for the passing game, whether Johnson is close to being maxed out physically, or if Locksley can even play QB in FSU's pro-style system, given how raw he is as a passer at the moment (many believe he is a better receiver or safety prospect, as evidenced by his "athlete" tag)."
Update - Jan 26, 2015
Florida State signed J.J. Cosentino in 2014, a strong-arm pro-style passer.
FSU needed to take two QBs in this 2015 class.
The other detail here is that FSU secured a commitment from 2016 QB Malik Henry, one of the best in the country. Committed (11/13/2014)
Henry has transferred from California to IMG Academy in Bradenton, FL and is considered one of the top recruits in the country. Will that knowledge weigh on the minds of any of the 2015 players? We'll have to wait and see.
