Quarterback Jordan Travis has guided the Seminoles to a 6-0 start. His brother, a former major league baseball player, has rare perspective on their rise.
Jordan Travis has led No. 4 Florida State to a 6-0 start heading into its game Saturday night against Duke. TALLAHASSEE — Rather than toppling off the college football map and plunging into the Gulf of Mexico as seemed plausible only two seasons ago, Florida State has resurged to national relevance and stadium fullness. It qualifies once more as abuzz. The empty seats at Doak Campbell Stadium have died of chronic victory. The Spanish moss on the huge campus seems to hang with cheer.
The energy around that run has intensified, and the markers are abundant. To anyone who hadn’t been around Tallahassee since the College Football Playoff year of 2014, it could feel almost like 2014, save for the cannabis dispensaries popping up beneath the usual array of injury-lawyer billboards.
By now Jordan Travis, after so much time in college , after so much steady progress and so many Twitter dents, handles a media session with his placid aplomb. He says, “How are y’all doing,” to the reporters, and, “We have not reached even close to our potential yet, which is crazy,” and, “I love this football team more than anything in the world.”His brother called him a “humble, nice, easygoing, almost boring, to be honest, kid.
