The good news keeps rolling in for the Seminoles, who are gearing up for what could be a special 2023 campaign. Players such as quarterback Jordan Travis, linebacker Kalen DeLoach, cornerback Renardo Green, cornerback Jarrian Jones, and wide receiver Mycah Pittman have already decided to return for another season.

On Thursday, Florida State learned that another key contributor on defense would be returning to Tallahassee. Star linebacker Tatum Bethune has announced his decision to run it back for his final season of collegiate eligibility.

With redshirt junior safety Jammie Robinson moving on to the NFL following the bowl game, Bethune is set to be Florida State’s top returning tackler in 2023. He recorded 76 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, and three pass deflections while playing in all 12 games, with 10 starts, during the regular season. He notched a season-high 14 tackles and 2.5 tackles for loss during the Seminoles’ defeat to North Carolina State.
