The surprise came after Brooks decommitted from Cal just a few weeks earlier, due to the firing of Justin Wilcox.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis was the dream school before my recruitment started,\u201d Brooks said at the time. \u201cThis was my dream school. They just weren\u2019t really recruiting me. \u2026 now I\u2019m going here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 6-foot-4, 230-pound edge rusher had been one of the standouts of the 2026 offseason. A source close to the program compared his early performance in winter workouts to those of the Desir twins last offseason.<\/p>\n<p>Worth noting: Former FSU edge rusher, now Mississippi State Bulldog, Jayson Jenkins sustained a similar injury last offseason and returned for the season-opener against Alabama.<\/p>\n<p>Join\u00a0Warchant\u00a0for Market-Leading Florida State coverage!<\/p>\n<p>Warchant.com\u00a0provides just what passionate FSU fans expect: Market-leading coverage of Seminole athletics and recruiting.<\/p>\n<p>Join the largest Florida State fan community and receive all the benefits that come with it:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Elite team and recruiting coverage of the program you love.<\/li>\n<li>Exclusive video and board Q&amp;A\u2019s with\u00a0Warchant\u00a0staff.<\/li>\n<li>Interaction with the most passionate Seminole fans across multiple board forums.<\/li>\n<li>10% off all\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.garnetandgold.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Garnet &amp; Gold<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0purchases while holding an active membership.
