Having been released from his letter of intent by USC this week, linebacker Glen Stanley announced Friday that he will head to Florida State.
"My heart is at Florida State," Stanley said. "I have a great connection with all the coaches. It was tough to leave USC because I liked the coaching staff but I want to play for a championship and play in a bowl game."
Stanley said he also considered Miami, South Florida, Kansas State, Texas Tech and Baylor.
