Florida State added the final piece to its offensive line class out of high school on Sunday, as former UCF commit and three-star offensive tackle Chastan Brown committed to Florida State.
Brown joins four-star Mario Nash, three-star Shawn Porrett and recently committed three-star Sandman Thompson as members of the offensive line class out of high school.
The towering 6-9, 270-pound product of Warner Robins (Ga.) Northside was entrusted to offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn and offensive line coach Herb Hand at their former institution. Brown left UCF on Nov. 30, the day it was announced that Malzahn would be Florida State’s new offensive coordinator.
Connecting the dots would have you believe a reunion in Tallahassee is inevitable, but Brown hasn’t had an offer from the Seminoles and hasn’t been on campus since the summer of 2023, when he decommitted. Brown has shown interest from a wide variety of programs since decommitting, primarily Georgia Tech, Arkansas and Missouri. However, there was interest from Brown to follow his coach to Tallahassee.
Florida State offered Brown on Dec. 4 before Herb Hand was hired as offensive line coach a little less than a week later. With two of his former coaches on staff, an offer in hand and researching his options for the past month and a half, Brown took an official visit to Florida State on Sunday. The Seminoles will be the only program Brown has officially visited since his decommitment.
Brown became a Seminole midway through his official visit, reuniting with his future UCF coaches at their new workplace.
