Florida State football will get last crack at 4-star Georgia RB Edwards
Running back is a major position of need for the Florida State football team in this recruiting cycle, and one of the key targets on the Seminoles' board is Moultrie, Ga., product Daijun Edwards.
With the four-star tailback cranking up his decision-making process with three visits in the coming weeks, Warchant made the trip up to South Georgia to see where things stand and to get a gauge of what he's looking for from his final schools.
(NOTE: Warchant interviewed Edwards twice during this trip -- once on-camera and once off-camera. So there are quotes in this story that do not appear in the video.)

While a lot of elite prospects already have taken several official visits and are wrapping up their recruiting processes, Edwards is just getting serious.
* Warchant Extra: Michael’s follow-up thoughts on Edwards’ decision
The Georgia standout kicks things off with an official visit this weekend to Arkansas, followed by a trip to Athens, Ga., next weekend to check out the Georgia Bulldogs. Then, Edwards will finish his travels with an official visit to Florida State on Jan. 31.
"I've just been taking it easy and haven't visited anywhere since the end of the season," Edwards told Warchant. "It's a little stressful with recruiting in finding the right place or the school I feel the most at home at. I am looking forward to the visits."
Each school has its own connection to Edwards.
With Arkansas, the Razorbacks' new head coach is Sam Pittman, who was recruiting Edwards to Georgia when he was offensive line coach there. At Georgia, the Rivals250 prospect has a close connection with Bulldogs running backs coach Dell McGee. And finally with FSU, Edwards has a previous relationship with Seminoles running backs coach David Johnson, who recruited him while he was at Tennessee.
