In April, after he won Defensive Line MVP honors at the Rivals camp in Atlanta, Woody explained why he was so interested in FSU.
"I love the Seminoles," he said. "Coach Atkins has been on me from the very start. We talk a lot, and our conversations are very direct, but not always football. ... They like me at offensive tackle. I like it a lot. I love the position because it shows you a big guy can move and make an impact for the offense."
Woody is FSU's 14th commitment for the Class of 2020, and the Seminoles' class now ranks No. 3 nationally.
