Exhibition 2 -- Florida State 84, Columbus State 54

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – - In its final exhibition game before regular season play begins at Pittsburgh, Florida State earned an 84-54 victory over Columbus State at the Donald L. Tucker Civic Center. Sophomore Devin Vassell led three Seminoles in double figures with 18 points. Also in double figures were Anthony Polite with 16 points and freshman Patrick Williams with 10. The game saw some familiar faces returning to the court after missing Florida State’s exhibition victory over Barry. Both M.J. Walker and Devin Vassell made their highly anticipated season debuts and came back with a vengeance. Walker, who started and played nine first half minutes, totaled six points on two made 3-point shots. Vassell totaled 18 points (three-of-three three-pointers) and finished with six rebounds.

Healthy Florida State Point Guard Trent Forrest Ready To Lead The Seminoles By Wayne McGahee Tallahassee Democrat Sept. 26, 2019

There's been a changing of the guard for the Florida State men's basketball team.

Terance Mann and Phil Cofer have graduated after leading the Seminoles for the last two seasons.

Enter senior Trent Forrest.

Forrest has been a key part of FSU's rotation since he arrived at FSU before the 2016-17 season. He came off the bench his first two years as a member of the "Boom Squad" and never complained.

Last year, he dealt with a debilitating toe injury that threatened his ability to play six games in to the season. He didn't miss a single game.

He's earned this role and he's ready to fill it.

"I feel like those guys were able to kind of respect that and see what type of guy I was," Forrest said.

"I would do kind of whatever to help the team win. I feel like that definitely helped me get to where I am now with those guys being able to lead them."

Pain was something Forrest got very used to last season.

Forrest had the cartilage torn completely off the bone of his big toe on his left foot against Villanova on Nov. 25, 2018.

The Seminoles played 31 more games before their season came to an end in the Sweet 16 against Gonzaga on March 28, 2019. Forrest played in all of them and averaged 29.9 minutes per game for the season.

He put the team on his back against the Bulldogs with 20 points, five rebounds, four assists, three steals, and a block in the final game of the season trying to carry them to victory on one foot.

"It's kind of hard to just because I’m just the guy that wants to play so bad," Forrest said.

"But just kind of looking back on it, it is kind of amazing… After talking to the doctors and them telling me how severe it really was, it’s definitely amazing that I was able to play."

With every step, pain flared. Every landing was excruciating. Every trip down the court took every bit of his determination.

But he kept on taking those steps, unwilling to let his team down.

"He wasn't even supposed to be walking on it, let alone be able to play on it," FSU sophomore guard Devin Vassell told the Democrat.

"So it's being able to see him and how he is fighting for us to show us the love of the game that he has for us because he was risking playing on that one toe. It could have really been worse for him, but he was playing for us. So, I really respect that."

Forrest was third on the team averaging 9.3 points per game for the 2018-19 season and led the team averaging 3.7 assists per game. He also added 4.5 rebounds per game.

Overall, he was one of the most important players on the court for the Seminoles despite the injury limiting what he was able to do.

He had surgery to repair his toe after the season ended, and the doctors had to remove the cartilage that was in his toe and completely replace it.

"Trent’s probably one of my closest friends of the team, so I knew like kind of what he was going through, but you actually don't know until you’re in his shoes," redshirt sophomore forward RaiQuan Gray told the Democrat.

"But when he told the dudes how they had to go in and fix everything, I was shocked. I don't know how anybody can run on that for that long of a time period. He got through that so he's tough, He’s a warrior. We’ve got so much respect for him. That's our guy."

Since then, he's been getting back slowly into shape.

He wasn't able to run, but that didn't stop him from putting in the work in the weight room to overcome the injury. He's finally started to get back to feeling like his old self in recent weeks, and he's going to be ready to go when the Seminoles start practice for the 2019-20 season Saturday.

"For the first couple months, while I was in my boot and my cast, I could really just weight train," Forrest said. "So I would try to make sure I went as hard as I could in the weight room, just upper body stuff. So I could get kind of quick short bursts or like conditioning with that. And then just once I was able to kind of start back running and stuff to some light jogging and getting on the bike. And it was just a lot of stuff like that...

Forrest already had the respect of his teammates before the injury, but his determination and effort last season took it to a completely different level.

Forrest has been a FSU-first type of player from the moment he arrived on campus.

FSU coach Leonard Hamilton even went as far as calling him a "True Seminole" last season as he went through his injury but kept playing.

This is his team and everyone is ready for him to lead it.

"Trent is definitely the leader of this team," Vassell said.

"I mean, you can see it in his actions. You can see it when he speaks to us. Everybody listens and has respect for him. He comes into practice, and whenever he says something, we all do it."

FSU may have lost three starters from a season ago, but the goal hasn't changed.

After making the Elite Eight two seasons ago and the Sweet 16 last season, FSU has its eyes on more than that. They want to win a national title.

And they want to do it for their senior leader, who's laid so much on the line for them the last three years.

"We want to send him out on the right note," Gray said.

"Our common goal, our main goal is to win a national championship for him and Coach Ham. So we want to send Trent out on a high note. Let him have season that he wants to have. We want to be behind him 110%. That's our leader and we want to go with him." Florida State Basketball Guard Devin Vassell Becoming A More All-Around Player By Wayne McGahee III Tallahassee Democrat October 21, 2019

Florida State guard Devin Vassell has ice in his veins.

As a freshman, the moment was never too big for him and he never backed down even during the Seminoles' run to the Sweet 16.

After playing the sharp-shooter role on last year's team, he wants to become an all-around player in his second year.

"Just play as hard as I can on defense and not really worry about offense," Vassell told the Democrat.

"Just try and get all the little things like the deflections, the steals, and rebounds and just all the little things to help our team win."

Despite being a freshman, Vassell was the top shooter on FSU's roster a season ago. He knocked down 41.9% of the threes he took. No other player shot over 39% from beyond the arc last season.

Vassell connected on 26 of the 62 three-point shots he took, and all 26 were assisted. His ability to catch and shoot immediately is a valuable weapon for the FSU offense.

"It's a lot of hours I just did with coach C.Y. (Charlton Young) and coach (Stan) Jones and just with the whole coaching staff," Vassell said.

"I'll just say that credit to them to, you know, get me to where I am and I just keep working every day."

FSU needs Vassell to step up this season after losing half of last year's roster to graduation and the NBA.

With six newcomers, Vassell is one of the more experienced players on the roster, at least from a playing at FSU standpoint.

But he's not only stepped up his play on the court. He's become one of the leaders of the locker room despite being one of the youngest players on the roster.

"We expect him to continue the improvement that he showed us from the beginning of the season last year until now," FSU coach Leonard Hamilton said.

"The difference that I expect to see from Devin is his maturity, his confidence. He is a lot more vocal. He's becoming a guy who is the voice in the background who's consistently vocal enough to help guys remember exactly what he's supposed to do. He's been outspoken, as much as any sophomore that I've seen."

The system that FSU runs requires the players to be in top shape due to the effort that they have to play with when they're on the court.

The Seminoles rotate players constantly and players are supposed to give everything they have for around a four- minute stretch before coming off for the next wave of players.

The pace of the game and the effort that FSU requires was one of the things that were the hardest to adjust to last season, according to Vassell.

He's put in a lot of work this off-season to make sure he's ready for it as a sophomore. "I probably gained about 10-15 pounds over the summer," Vassell said.

"I’ve just been really working on my defense to be able to guard one through four and just be able to switch it and be the match-up problem on offense and on defense."

Florida State freshman Patrick Williams 'Scratching The Surface' Of His Potential Wayne McGahee III Tallahassee Democrat Oct. 24, 2019

Florida State's Patrick Williams isn't a typical freshman.

The 6-foot-8, 225-pound forward from Charlotte, N.C. comes to Tallahassee with enormous expectations.

Williams was ranked as a five-star prospect out of West Charlotte High by the 247Sports composite rankings in the 2019 class, and he's already been projected as a first round pick in a 2020 mock draft by ESPN.

"He has all the tools to be a very, very special player at Florida State," FSU associate head coach Stan Jones told the Democrat.

"He's just scratching the surface of what he's going to become. I think he's the youngest freshman we've ever had come in. He's from a great family and he's got he's got great character. I'll be shocked if he doesn't just continue to grow and grow and do some spectacular things during the course of the season."

There's usually an adjustment period for highly-ranked prospects as they transition from high school to the college level.

Being able to take plays off on the defensive end, getting the ball every time down the court, and being the vocal point for the team is something many talented high school players get used to.

When they get to the college level, those things go away for most players and it can be a tough adjustment.

But FSU's coaches and players all agree that's not the case with Williams. He's got a team-first mentality and doesn't expect anything to be given to him.

"He is very similar in humility as Jonathan Isaac was, in the fact that he doesn't think he's good enough yet, which is a great characteristic," Jones said.

"When you have that healthy fear of where you are and what you want to become, I think that escalates your growth and development. He's never come in with any premonitions of where he should be playing or how much he should be playing. He just wants to become a better player like Jonathan was.

"He lets you coach him. He responds to coaching. He accepts instructions at an extremely at a high level and can give it back to you."

Isaac wasn't the only comparison that Jones made for Williams. He also said that he's a lot like former FSU forward Chris Singleton, who was also a first-round pick by the Washington Wizards.

He compared him to Singleton because of his ability on the defensive end of the court, though he also said Williams is further along offensively than Singleton was when he arrived at FSU.

"I've put him in a category with a couple pretty good Florida State players in Chris Singleton and Jonathan Isaac and he meets all the criteria that both those guys have done while they were here," Jones said.

FSU fans got their first introduction to Williams during the Seminoles' 95-66 exhibition win over Barry University.

It took him a little time to find his rhythm, but after he threw down his first dunk of the game, he settled in nicely. Williams finished the game with 12 points, nine rebounds, and a block in just under 18 minutes of play. All five of his baskets came on dunks and he knocked down both of his free throw attempts.

"We expect a lot from him," redshirt sophomore forward RaiQuan Gray said.

"He's a great athlete. He has a high basketball IQ. He fits right into our system. He can run, jump, and shoot. We treat him like one of the vets so he's earned a lot of respect."

His athleticism was on full display as he flew through the air on his dunks as well as his effort rebounding and blocking shots.

Williams effort on the defensive end was something else that stood out about his game, but it didn't surprise his teammates.

If a player doesn't give the same effort on the defensive end of the court as he does on the offensive end, then that player isn't going to see the court much under FSU head coach Leonard Hamilton.

Williams has worked hard to be a good defender for the Seminoles and his efforts haven't gone unnoticed. "He does good and with his athleticism, he can you guard one through five if he had to and one through four easily," senior point guard Trent Forrest said.

"He can block shots one through five and clean up the glass like probably one of the best on the team. I'll say he's probably one of our best shot blockers that we have, even with our seven footers. So just his athleticism and his ability to kind of get around the court with quick burst like he does is going to help us a lot."

Williams does have things that he needs to work on, including being more self-assertive when he has the ball. That's something he's been working on during fall practice and he's already made progress in that regard.

FSU knows that Williams is going to make some freshman mistakes this season. That comes with the territory no matter how talented a player is.

But there's a lot of confidence that when Williams does make a mistake, he won't make it twice.

"We've always kind of prided ourselves on having those kind of guys that can cover a lot of ground quickly and can cover a lot of space up high that other people can't get to and he certainly fits the mold in all those categories," Jones said.

"He'll just grow in confidence offensively once he starts figuring his spots out a little bit more and realizing where he is okay making mistakes and where he's going to learn from his mistakes and not make that one again."
