Four-star athlete Terrion Arnold didn't need to learn much about Florida State University or the Seminoles' football program when he visited for Junior Day last month.

Being that he is from Tallahassee, Arnold is obviously very familiar with the FSU program and many of the players. So with that in mind, Arnold said Seminoles head coach Mike Norvell and defensive backs coach Marcus Woodson spent most of the time that weekend -- and in conversations since then -- focusing on developing more of a personal bond with him.

While most of the prospects at FSU's Junior Day headed home in the afternoon, Arnold said he actually came back to watch part of the Super Bowl with the Seminoles' players and coaches.

"I felt like I was a part of the team," the four-star prospect said. "I spent a lot of time with Raymond Woodie and Amari Gainer, who is a Tallahassee native, and he's one of my best friends. Felt like I was watching the game with my own team.
