One of the greatest and most famous players to ever compete at Florida State was Derrick Brooks. And even though the standout linebacker wore No. 10, we are switching things up today and giving some pub to another No. 10 in an FSU uniform -- Dan Kendra.
Just 10 days from now, the Seminoles will start spring practice. Get excited.
Florida State fans are encouraged to come out to Tomahawk Sports Bar & Grill Friday night to watch the No. 17 FSU men's basketball ACC Tournament game at 9 p.m.
Tomahawk will be offering 2-for-1 Jager Bombs, $12 domestic beer buckets and 49-cent chicken wings to those fans that come out and support FSU in its bid to capture a conference crown in Atlanta.
Florida State freshman running back will get his opportunity in less than two weeks to show why he was so highly regarded coming out of high school when the Seminoles kick off spring practice March 19.

5-Mario Pender, FSU, RB: Last year at about this time another early enrollee RB at FSU, Devonta Freeman was turning some heads. Freeman had a good season in 2011, but watch out for Pender. The guy is a blur, who is both quick and fast. In fact, sources at FSU say he's the fastest back the Noles have. In high school, he averaged 12 yards per carry.
