Hours after the Seminoles landed a commitment from wide receiver Joshua Burrell, former Mississippi State defensive lineman Fabien Lovett announced he has followed through on his commitment and signed with the Seminoles.

The 6-foot-4, 315-pound Lovett originally signed with Mississippi State out of Olive Branch, Miss., in 2018 after racking up 81 tackles and 25.0 tackles for loss (6.5 sacks) as a senior. He was a three-star prospect but one of the top recruits in the state of Mississippi.
