FSU football defensive back Greedy Vance Jr enters NCAA transfer portal

Redshirt senior defensive back Greedy Vance Jr. won’t be playing his final year of college football at Florida State.

It was reported on Thursday that he intends to enter the NCAA transfer portal with one year of eligibility left. This is the Seminoles’ first transfer out of the program since 18 players left in December and January.

This is his second time in the portal as he transferred from Louisville to FSU in December 2021.

The 5-foot-11 inch, 178-pound defensive back played in all 14 games last season, recording 18 tackles, three pass breakups and one interception.

During his two seasons in Tallahassee, he played in 27 games, recording 34 tackles, four interceptions (three in 2022) and nine pass deflections.

FSU’s defensive back room still has a lot of support despite Vance’s exit. Shyheim Brown, Azareye’h Thomas and Kevin Knowles II are all returners expected to play large roles this season.

The Seminoles also brought in two defensive backs via the portal, Earl Litter Jr. (Alabama) and Davonte Brown (Miami), and three freshmen in the secondary.
