Five-star CB Chauncey Kennon commits to Florida State

Recruiting: Florida Gators were the biggest in-state winner in June

USA Today Florida Network recruiting reporters Jon Santucci and Nick Wilson look at which schools have had the most success during the month of June.

The top-ranked defensive back in the Sunshine State is staying home.

Chauncey Kennon, a five-star corner out of Booker, announced his commitment to Florida State on Sunday afternoon.

Kennon is ranked as the No. 1 cornerback in the USA TODAY Florida Top 100, and is the No. 8 player overall in the state. He also has that ever-coveted and elusive fifth star on 247Sports.

He named the Seminoles over a Top-6 that included Georgia, Florida, Oregon, LSU, and Miami.

Kennon tallied 33 tackles for Booker last year with an impressive 16 pass breakups, one interception, and a forced fumble.

Who is Chauncey Kennon, FSU football commit?

School: Booker (Sarasota)

Commitment: Florida State (July 6)

Height, Weight: 6-1, 175 pounds

2024 Stats: 33 tackles, 1 TFL, 1 INT, 16 passes defended, 1 FF (MaxPreps)

USA Today Florida Network Ranking: No. 8 (No. 1 cornerback) 

247Sports Composite: 4-star, No. 9 player in Florida, No. 8 CB in the nation 

Scouting report: Kennon’s lightning-fast speed and shifty footwork have made him one of the most sought-after recruits in the state. He doesn’t shy away from big hits, and is very effective in run support. His long arms are huge plus, and are a big reason he broke up a ridiculous 16 passes last year.
