Florida State, which has been stockpiling talented defensive linemen in recent classes, picked up another big one on Saturday as 2018 defensive end Kayode Oladele announced he was committing to the Seminoles.

"I actually knew I was going to commit to FSU when they offered me earlier this year," Oladele said after his FSU Junior Day visit on Saturday. "But I made it official today. I told my mom last night. This place always feels at home to me. Glad to be a part of the family."

Oladele, who is listed at 6-foot-5 and 236 pounds, is rated a three-star prospect and the nation's No. 25 strongside defensive end by Rivals. He reportedly has offers from Florida, Miami, Tennessee and more than a dozen other programs.

The Miami Edison standout is a former basketball player who is relatively new to football. He missed four games this past season due to injury but still finished with 6.5 sacks and 46 tackles.
