Florida State AD Michael Alford issues statement on Hurricane Ian, plans vs. Wake Forest

Florida State will have to be flexible this week as it prepares to face Wake Forest in a pivotal Week 5 matchup.

Tallahassee is potentially going to be in the path of a serious storm this week: Hurricane Ian.

On Monday afternoon, FSU athletic director Michael Alford issued a statement on the storm and FSU’s contingency plans for its contest vs. Wake Forest this weekend.

“Nothing has changed right now in terms of the 3:30 p.m. kickoff for our football game with Wake Forest on Saturday,” the statement reads. “We are closely monitoring the projections regarding the hurricane and will be in constant contact with both local and state officials as well as the administration at Wake Forest and the Atlantic Coast Conference. As always, the safety of the student-athletes, game staff and fans will be our top priority.”

According to the National Weather Service, the storm could impact the “region” as early as Wednesday.

More updates are expected throughout the week.
