BREAKING NEWS: 5-Star WR Luther Burden III Decommits from Missouri, Commits to Florida State Over Penn State and Tennessee

In a stunning development, 5-star wide receiver Luther Burden III has officially decommitted from the University of Missouri and pledged his commitment to Florida State University. Burden, one of the top wide receiver prospects in the country, made his decision after an intense recruiting battle involving top programs like Penn State and Tennessee.

Burden, a 6-foot-2, 200-pound standout from St. Louis, Missouri, had originally committed to Missouri, his home-state school, but after taking visits to several major programs, including Florida State, the allure of playing for the Seminoles proved too strong to ignore. Burden’s decision is a significant win for Florida State, which has been building momentum under head coach Mike Norvell and is looking to return to national prominence after a few years of rebuilding.

Florida State’s rise in recent seasons, bolstered by a strong recruiting class and a reinvigorated program, made the Seminoles an attractive destination for Burden. The opportunity to compete in the ACC, play under an experienced coaching staff, and develop his skills at a school with a rich football tradition ultimately swayed Burden’s decision.

Burden’s commitment is seen as a major victory for Florida State, especially as it competes with perennial powerhouse programs like Penn State and Tennessee for top talent. Both schools were in the running for Burden, with Penn State offering a strong case with its consistent success in the Big Ten and Tennessee bringing excitement under head coach Josh Heupel’s offense. However, Burden ultimately felt that Florida State provided the best fit for his skills and future aspirations.

For Missouri, Burden’s decommitment is a tough blow. The Tigers had been hoping to keep Burden close to home, and his decision to decommit leaves them searching for another elite wide receiver to add to their recruiting class. Similarly, Tennessee and Penn State will need to shift their focus elsewhere as they continue to build their programs.

Burden’s arrival in Tallahassee brings immediate excitement to Florida State’s offense, and he is expected to make an immediate impact. Known for his explosive speed, strong hands, and ability to make plays in all areas of the field, Burden will be a key weapon for the Seminoles as they look to contend for championships in the years to come. His commitment marks the beginning of what is sure to be an exciting chapter in his football career.
