Florida State University is facing uncertainty regarding running back Tre Wisner as the season opener approaches. Wisner, a former standout at Texas who rushed for 597 yards last season, has not participated in either of the two scrimmages allowed during fall camp, leading to speculation about his availability and effectiveness.
Head coach Mike Norvell had high hopes for Wisner after he transferred from Texas, where he was deemed expendable by coach Steve Sarkisian due to injuries that limited his playing time. The Seminoles already have two returning running backs, Sam Singleton and Ousmane Kromah, both of whom contributed significantly last season.
Florida State led the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) in rushing offense, averaging 218 yards per game.
Kromah has emerged as a strong contender for a starting position, having lost weight and improved his speed, which has garnered praise from coaches and teammates. He is seen as a key player for the Seminoles, especially with the season opener against New Mexico State approaching.
Kromah's performance could alleviate any concerns of buyer's remorse regarding Wisner's transfer, as he is expected to play a crucial role in the team's offensive strategy.
