For all the increased reliance on the transfer portal, quick fixes via that route are not guaranteed. And the most glaring example of that for Florida State is at quarterback. He didn’t turn the ball over Saturday, but he also made very few big plays with his arm .

The few deep shots he took were inaccurate.
