Class of 2023 four-star forward Taylor Bowen has committed to Florida State, he announced Saturday.
The 6-foot-9, 195-pound power forward from Brewster (FL) Academy and the Expressions Elite AAU Program, chose the Seminoles over Duke, Iowa, LSU, Providence and Vermont.
“I just felt like home when I got to Florida State,” Bowen said in an interview with the Burlingotn Free Press after his announcement. “It just felt like the perfect fit basketball-wise, on and off the court. It’s the right decision for me.”
“It was really hard to narrow down and find the right fit and the school that prioritized my needs as well as everything else I need to take into account,” Bowen said. “I just want to go in there with a dog mentality and win as much as I can. I’m just thankful to have the opportunity.”
Ranked by 247Sports Composite as the No. 7 power forward and No. 31 overall prospect in the nation, Bowen is the first commit in Florida State’s 2023 recruiting class.
