After what was described as a positive team meeting with head coach Mike Norvell on Thursday morning, Florida State's players took to social media to proclaim that they were ready to move forward as a unified group.
Senior defensive tackle Marvin Wilson, who criticized Norvell on social media early Thursday for misrepresenting text messages about racial inequality with players over the weekend, said he appreciated the fact that Norvell encouraged him to use his "platform" for change.

In a video posted on social media, Wilson said several good things came out of the ordeal. He said the players have all vowed to register to vote in the next elections. He said they also are planning to do more to support charitable organizations, and they are going to do more outreach for children's groups.
"We need more doctors, we need more lawyers, we need more politicians, we need more people with say-so of color," Wilson said.
Here is Wilson's complete two-part video:
