Quintrevion Wisner poised for breakout season with Florida State

The versatile running back balances injury recovery with award watch list honors as the Seminoles gear up for the opener

Award Watch Lists

Quintrevion Wisner has been named to the watch lists for both the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award and the Doak Walker Award, honors that spotlight the nation’s most dynamic offensive players.

The recognition comes as the Florida State Seminoles prepare for their season‑opening clash with the New Mexico State Aggies. Wisner’s inclusion reflects his dual‑threat ability as a rusher and receiver, and it places him among a select group of candidates who have excelled in high‑school programs across Texas.

High School Roots and College Production

Wisner’s high school career at DeSoto High School in Texas was marked by 846 rushing yards and six touchdowns as a senior, complemented by 35 receptions for 466 yards and four scores. Those numbers helped him attract attention from college scouts and set the stage for his transition to the collegiate level.

During his three‑year tenure with the Texas Longhorns, Wisner accumulated 1,734 rushing yards and nine touchdowns in 38 appearances, while also adding 66 catches for 457 yards and two scores. In the most recent season he posted 597 rushing yards and three touchdowns, plus 146 receiving yards and a receiving touchdown.

Injury and Availability

A minor injury earlier in the preseason has not derailed his plans; coaches expect him to be ready for the opener. He will share snaps with teammates Ousmane Kromah and Samuel Singleton Jr., forming a rotating backfield that could keep defenses guessing.

Looking Ahead

As the Seminoles gear up for the new campaign, Wisner’s blend of power, agility and pass‑catching versatility positions him as a key piece of the team’s offensive scheme. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see how he translates his award‑watch list momentum into on‑field production.
