Well, the Seminoles 14. Texas Tech 6-1 have answered the bell after impressive home wins against borderline top-25 teams Indiana and Florida. This week was 15. FLORIDA STATE 3-0 something of a coming-out party for top-10 freshman and potential lottery pick Scottie Barnes. Barnes shook off an iffy 16. Missouri 5-0 performance against Indiana to hit the winning shot in overtime, then went for 17 points and five assists against Florida. 17. Virginia 3-1 Here's another interesting angle, one that nobody expected entering the season. Is Florida State not the favorite to repeat 18. San Diego State 5-0 as ACC champions? Virginia, the preseason favorite, has struggled; Duke, a staple near the top of the standings, has a ton 19.

Anthony Polite has had quite the development since he joined the Florida State basketball team back in 2018.
Throughout the last three seasons under head coach Leonard Hamilton, the Switzerland native grew from a player trying to find his footing at the collegiate level into a dominant, hard-working leader on the court.
In his first four games this season, Polite has shown just how much he’s developed his game this offseason. Against Indiana, he tied his career-high with eight rebounds to go with nine points. Just a few days later against Florida, Polite tied his career-high in points with 14.
“Watching a lot of film was probably the best thing for me this offseason,” Polite said. “Watching where to move, where to get the easiest shots, reading coming off the ball screen, and just positioning spacing. I feel like that has really helped me.”
So far this season he is shooting 50% (8-16) from the three-point line while averaging exactly ten points a game. Adding onto this, he is tied for the second-most blocks (three) and the third-most steals (five) on the team.
Polite has been around the sport of basketball for almost his entire life, with his father Michael playing for the Seminoles from 1988-1991. After moving to the United States at the age of 15 for his freshman year of high school, Polite went on to score 1,545 points total at the prep level. After signing with Florida State, he sustained injuries to both of his knees during his freshman season, resulting in a redshirt season.
A year later, Polite averaged 2.7 points and 0.6 steals. However, last year he improved, averaging 5.8 points and 1.2 steals.
Polite’s effectiveness with the ’Noles this year continued in their game against ACC opponent Georgia Tech. He played 34 minutes, scoring 10 points off of 4-7 shooting from the field and 2-4 from beyond the arc. The redshirt- junior also added three assists and three steals to his stat-line for the night, helping the Seminoles grab a 74-61 victory over the Yellow Jackets.
“Now you really see all his hard work paying off,” Hamilton said. “We need him to be one of the leaders on our team and he's definitely given us great leadership.”
Florida State has become known for its depth the past few seasons, with coach Hamilton usually rotating in 10-12 guys per game. Against Georgia Tech, however, Polite recorded another career-high by playing 34 minutes.
Polite fits into many lineups due to his versatility. On offense, the 6’6” guard can shoot lights out from the three- point line or help his teammates score, while his defensive intensity is unmatched.
Polite never shies away from fighting for loose balls or grabbing rebounds in key points during each game and Hamilton credits that type of mentality to his growth.
“Well you know he's been solid,” Hamilton said. “He is a great teammate with an unselfish spirit. He plays great defense and he’s a guy that you love to see develop.”
Whenever someone has needed to step up and make a big play for the Seminoles this season, whether it’s on offense or defense, Polite has proven that he can answer the call.
For example, with one minute left in overtime against Indiana and the ’Noles leading by two, he came up with a huge block to prevent a Hoosier guard from scoring and tying the game. The Seminoles would go on to win 69-67 in overtime.
If there’s one thing that’s clear to those who’ve watched Florida State basketball this season, it’s that Polite’s teammates trust him to make influential plays down the stretch.
“We have shooters everywhere on the floor and when they come in again we know it's going to be instant offense,” freshman point guard Scottie Barnes said. “We have a lot of trust in our guys to make the right plays.”
Gray Thinking Big In 2020, Beyond By Logan Grutchfield FSView November 22, 2020
In his defense, RaiQuan Gray is just saying what’s on everyone else’s mind around Tallahassee.
“I’m definitely a little biased. But I mean, if you ask anybody else, I think that they would have said that we would have won that [2020 NCAA basketball] championship,” Gray said.
Though Florida State certainly had all the makings of a championship-caliber team, the arrival of the coronavirus in the United States shuttered their title hopes as they stood at the doorstep with an ACC title.
This past Thursday, a few key players from that 2019-20 team saw their dreams of playing professionally come true; forward Patrick Williams and shooting guard Devin Vassell were selected in the first round by the Bulls and Spurs respectively, while guard Trent Forrest signed a two-way contract with the Jazz after the draft.
The departures of those three athletes leave some big shoes to fill on head coach Leonard Hamilton’s Seminoles squad, opening up an expanded role and leadership opportunity for Gray, who’s preparing for his third season at FSU after redshirting the 2017-2018 campaign.
When asked if he was ready to take on that added locker-room responsibility in the new season, Gray didn’t hesitate.
“Oh, yeah, most definitely,” Gray said. “I’ve been here for a few years, so it’s definitely something that I’ve signed up for, and I’m ready for it.”
Standing at 6-foot-8, the Fort Lauderdale native has played his way into the starting lineup across the past two seasons. While he’s always been durable, having played in all but one of FSU’s 37 regular-season matchups in 2018- 2019, Gray’s career arc at FSU came full circle last year as he earned a starting spot in all but one of the Garnet and Gold’s conference games.
For a player in a unique system like Hamilton’s, where bench depth is utilized at a much higher rate than virtually any other NCAA team, that consistent usage speaks volumes. And as Gray’s playing time has increased, so have his statistical contributions — the forward racked up career highs in points (6.0), rebounds (3.8) and steals (1.1) per game in 2019-2020, and looks to expand on those numbers with the new season fast approaching.
Gray’s best outing of last season came against South Florida at the Orange Bowl Classic. The forward collected eleven points, seven rebounds and three steals on the day, totals that would prove quite decisive after the ’Noles overcame a late deficit to pull out a 66-60 victory over the Bulls.
Gray finished the season with four more double-digit performances and five more games with seven-plus rebounds; however, his game isn’t one-dimensional at all, with the redshirt junior cementing himself as a robust presence on the defensive side of the ball and in creating scoring opportunities in transition for the Seminoles.
Despite the departure of Williams, Vassell and Forrest, the incoming class of players at FSU boasts plenty of blue- chip talent that should be able to replicate the trio’s production.
With five-star recruit Scottie Barnes and Missouri-West Plains JUCO transfer Sardaar Calhoun headlining the new faces on campus, Gray sees a team-first approach as the name of the game for Florida State.
“Like I said, the main thing for us is to win games … whether that’s me or someone else scoring higher in the game, we just gotta play the other team and figure things out,” Gray said.
Gray and the Seminoles will look to put those adages to the test very soon, with the team’s season opener coming on Friday, Nov. 27 at home against Gardner-Webb. Florida State will get nearly two weeks to steel itself before jumping into the front end of a tough schedule, with a non-conference slate against Indiana and Florida.
The ’Noles will play their first six games at the friendly confines of the Tucker Center, where they’ve won 65 of their last 68 matchups.
Though Gray and the ’Noles had a shot for glory taken from them last season, they’re hungry to pick up right where they left off. With a national title in their sights, look for Gray and his teammates to put opponents to the test up and down the court. F L O R I D A S T A T E U N I V E R S I T Y #0 RayQuan Evans Guard
