Despite their 5-7 record, Florida State had one of the nation's top offenses last season. Lost in the shadows even further was how effective freshman running back Ousmane Kromah was when he was given opportunities.
The explosive through-the-hole and vision that made FSU push so hard to flip Kromah from the Georgia Bulldogs was clear, and it set up the Peach State native to be RB1 going forward. Chris Hummer and Matt Zenitz of 247Sports think Kromah won't just perform well as a sophomore, but they think he'll have a breakout season.
The headliner from Florida State's 2025 class, Kromah had a strong true freshman season with 408 yards on 5.7 yards per carry. The Seminoles did make a big transfer swing at running back by adding Tre Wisner of Texas, but Kromah had a very strong spring and looks to be in a strong position to start even with the Wisner's addition.
Kromah leads a talented group that also features Quintrevion Wisner, Sam Singleton Jr., and freshman Amari Thomas. According to running backs coach Kam Martin, Kromah has taken the bull by the horns this offseason in preparing for a bigger role as a sophomore.
"He's taking that next step. He's taking that next step as a person and as a player," Martin said back in March. "Every morning, me and him have been watching film at 5:30 in the morning, and I can tell you this: he's taking that next step to be the guy he wants to be. He wants to be great.
