JONESBORO, Ark. (KAIT) – Looks like there’s another Power 5 addition to the 2021 Arkansas State recruiting class.

Florida State redshirt junior QB James Blackman announced on Instagram Friday evening that he’s transferring to the Red Wolves. Blackman entered the portal earlier this month.

He’s tied for 10th in FSU history with 40 touchdown passes. Blackman is top 15 in completions (433), passing yards (5,445), total offense (5,417), and 300 yard passing games (3). Blackman played in 32 games for the Seminoles from 2017-2020.

He would have 2 seasons of eligibility with the Red Wolves. Blackman played in 2017 and 2019. He appeared in only 4 games with the Seminoles in 2018, qualifying for a redshirt. The year 2020 was a free year eligibility wise, and he opted out in November.
