Ashlynd Barker has a different feeling about Florida State football heading into the 2026 season.
The standout safety is in his third year with the program, and despite a record of 7-17 over the last two seasons and increased pressure, he feels the Seminoles have the chance to be "super good" this season.
Barker acknowledged it's early in preseason practice, but his belief is based on what he felt was a strong offseason and a lack of egos on the team.
"I was talking to K.J. (Kirkland) on the sidelines after we got off the field from a drive. I was saying, "We are going to be super good," Barker said after the first preseason practice.
"It's the first day I know, everyone can say that. I don't know why, but I just feel like there is something about this time. The main thing is there are no egos. You can say something to someone, and they won't talk back."
