Taylor Bol Bowen has announced he is entering the transfer portal, but he is considering a return to Florida State, the sophomore forward announced on Wednesday.

Bowen averaged 8.0 points and 5.2 rebounds in 2024-25. While he struggled down the stretch, Bowen was a key figure in FSU's upset win at Wake Forest in February and made a team-high 41.4 percent of his 3-point shots.

"I just want to evaluate all my options with a new coach coming in," Bowen told the Osceola. "Florida State will still be firmly in the mix. I just have to make sure I'm making the right decision.

Bowen is the first FSU player to announce he is entering the portal. His announcement comes a day after the Seminoles lost both of their high school signees, although Dwayne Wimbley Jr. indicated he planned a visit to FSU as part of reopening his recruiting process.
