In an emotional and defiant message to Florida State University, rising quarterback Luke Kromenhoek broke his silence with a vow: he won’t let down the people who believe in him.
As he prepares to take the reins as the starting quarterback for the Florida State Seminoles, Kromenhoek delivered a message filled with gratitude — and confidence — that’s already rallying fans behind him.
“To the fans, the coaches, and everyone in the FSU family who believed in me from day one — thank you,” Kromenhoek said in a video shared via the team’s official account. “I won’t disappoint. This is my team now, and we’re coming for everything they said we couldn’t have.”
🔥 Stepping Into the Spotlight
After two seasons developing behind the scenes and flashes of brilliance in limited reps last year, Kromenhoek now stands poised to lead a Seminoles squad still hungry to reclaim national relevance.
The former four-star recruit out of Benedictine Military School in Georgia impressed in spring camp with his arm strength, quick decision-making, and leadership presence — prompting head coach Mike Norvell to name him the starter ahead of fall.
“He’s matured into exactly the kind of leader we envisioned,” said Norvell. “Luke has complete command of the offense and total trust from his teammates.”
🧠 A Bold Challenge: “Let Them Doubt Us”
In his message, Kromenhoek didn’t shy away from expectations. He embraced them — and challenged the doubters.
“People have written us off. Let them. This team is hungrier than ever. And we’re not aiming to just compete — we’re aiming to dominate.”
FSU finished 9–4 last season and fell short in several key matchups, including a loss to Clemson that derailed their playoff hopes. But with Kromenhoek under center, a strong offensive line, and key returners at wide receiver and running back, many believe the Noles could surprise.
📈 The Numbers Behind the Promise
While he hasn’t logged a full season as a starter yet, Kromenhoek’s metrics from 2024 in limited action are promising:
- Completion %: 68.9
- Yards per attempt: 9.1
- TD–INT: 5–0
- Passer Rating: 151.4
Add in his underrated mobility, and FSU may have a multi-dimensional weapon ready to shake up the ACC.
📝 Final Word
Luke Kromenhoek’s message wasn’t just about football — it was about belief. In a time where players move freely through the portal and chase NIL dollars, his loyalty and growth inside the program have made him a fan favorite before even taking his first full snap as QB1.
