KJ Bolden, 5-star FSU commit, shuts down rumors of SEC visit

Bolden stars for Buford High School in Buford, GA. The star prospect played some receiver and defensive back in high school, but is thought of as a defensive back at the next level. Bolden can return kicks as well and ran 2 back for touchdowns as a senior.
Per the 247Sports Composite ranking, Bolden is the No. 11 overall prospect in the nation, the No. 1 safety prospect in the nation, and the No. 2 player out of Georgia. Bolden was heavily recruited by Alabama, LSU, Georgia, and more before committing to the Noles over the summer.
Bolden has visited with Kirby Smart from Georgia and Hugh Freeze from Auburn recently. However, the athlete seems dedicated to the Noles.
