VIRGINIA – THE LAST GAME David Nichols scored 14 points to lead Florida State to the championship game of the Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament for the first time since 2012 as the Seminoles defeated top-seeded and No 2 ranked Virginia, 69-59, on March 15 2019 at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, N.C. Phil Cofer had 11 points and 7-foot-4 center Christ Koumadje added nine points and nine rebounds for the Seminoles. De’Andre Hunter had 13 points for Virginia, which had its nine-game winning streak snapped and suffered its first loss to a team other than Duke. Florida State was in control from the start. The Seminoles built a 35-31 at halftime behind the inside play of Koumadje, who had seven points and nine rebounds in the first half after registering just two points and two rebounds in a 65-52 loss to Virginia earlier this season. Florida State broke open the game midway through the second half with a 13-1 run led by Nichols, a graduate transfer who scored on a drive, a low post move, and a turnaround jumper during the stretch. While Nichols was heating up, the Cavaliers couldn’t score, going nearly 6 1/2 minutes without a field goal.

Quoting Florida State Basketball “The captain of the Seminoles is Trent Forrest; an outstanding guard. Might be one of the best defensive players -- not only in the ACC but in college basketball.”

Wes Durham ACC Legend

“Don’t forget about Florida State.”

Dan Bonner ACC Legend

“We’ve just got to go out each night and just prove ourselves and prove what kind of a team we are.”

Trent Forrest Florida State Basketball

“You've got crazy athleticism with Florida State. The first thing that jumps out at me is the athleticism and their length and their depth. They don't have a particular scorer who's putting up crazy numbers because they're so deep.”

Danny Manning Wake Forest Basketball

“Forget about size matchups. Florida State just looked like the tougher team that wanted it more (than Louisville) on January 4). They were on the floor or chasing the ball out of bounds. They seemed more into it. They found the open man and played good team basketball. With how they played, FSU deserved the road win.”

Justin Renck SB Nation

Card Chronicle “Florida State coach Leonard Hamilton has turned the Seminoles into a nationally respected basketball program.”

Wayne McGahee III Tallahassee Democrat

“In the past five seasons, Florida State’s lowest rank in average height is 12th in the country. This season, the Seminoles are — on average — the tallest team in the country, per KenPom.”

Conor O’Neil Winston-Salem Journal

“We can’t simulate who they are. When you say, ‘All right, scout team, you’re Florida State today.’ We don’t have two 7-footers, we don’t have 6-8 wings, we don’t have 6-4, 6-5 guards, so that’ll be a little bit different in terms of simulating them with the scout team.”

Danny Manning Wake Forest Basketball

"Give all the credit to Florida State. I thought they outplayed us the entire game. Our guards got manhandled. They have a really good team, a team that is really athletic and we knew that coming in. We got manhandled. Our guards got pushed around."

Florida State Basketball Why I Wear My Number

RayQuan Evans – “There is no particular reason why I will wear No. 0 during my career at Florida State. I wore the same number at Northern Idaho and I really like the way it looks. It’s a very unique number and I feel that I’m a unique player.” RaiQuan Gray – “I chose to wear No. 1 at Florida State because I wanted to wear a number that was completely different from any number that I have ever worn before. I have worn double digit numbers throughout my career. I wore No. 41 in high school.” Anthony Polite – “I will wear No. 2 this season because I am the second member of my family to play at Florida State. My dad, Michael, wore No. 45 during his career as a Seminoles (1988, 1989 and 1991) Trent Forrest – “I wear No. 3 to honor two of my AAU teammates who have recently passed away. Rod Scott wore No. 3 and Herman Williams wore No. 13. So with the No. 3 in common in both of their numbers I decided to change to that number at Florida State when it became available. Rod passed away after he was involved in a car crash in 2016 and Herman collapsed while playing in a pick-up game at his church just before his freshman year began at University of Louisiana Monroe.” Patrick Williams – “I wear number 4 because it represents my hometown of Charlotte (704). Many people who know the city, or are from Charlotte, refer to it as “the 4” so I wear the number 4 as my way of representing Charlotte and the people in the city. The city of Charlotte has supported my evolution as a person and a basketball player throughout my career.” Dominik Olejniczak - “My favorite number is 13. I wore No. 13 when I played for Poland in the FIBA World Cup during the Summer of 2019 and while I was at Ole Miss. The No. 13 is retired at Florida State because the great Dave Cowens wore it during his Hall of Fame career at Florida State, so I wear No. 15 as a Seminole. My mother, Joanna Chełczyńska, who played professional basketball in Poland for the better part of two decades, wore No. 15 during her career. M.J. Walker – “I wear No. 23 because LeBron James has been my favorite player for as long as I can remember. I was about four years old when he began playing in the NBA and I have patterned my game after him. I wore No. 23 throughout high school and during AAU ball.” Devin Vassell - “I wear No. 24 because it is my favorite number and I’m also a big Kobe Bryant fan. I wore the number throughout my high school and my AAU career, and really grew to like that number. I was happy to be able to get No. 24 when I was being recruited by Coach Ham and the coaching staff.”

Exhibition 1 -- Florida State 95,Barry 66

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida State’s exhibition opener provided a glimpse of what lies ahead for the Seminoles – both in the upcoming season and beyond. It also showed coach Leonard Hamilton a few things he’d like for his team to tighten up between now and the Seminoles’ season opener on November 6. So, in that sense, it was a near-perfect evening for FSU, which got 19 points and five assists from senior Trent Forrest in a 95-66 victory over Barry University at the Donald L. Tucker Center. Forrest, the central figure for an FSU team that lost its top two scorers from a year ago, was one of six Seminoles to finish in double-figures. Anthony Polite added 18 – including 16 in the second half – while RaiQuan Gray (10 points) and newcomers Patrick Williams (12, nine rebounds), Nathanael Jack (10), Dominik Olejniczak (10 points, seven rebounds) and Malik Osborne (seven points, seven boards) all enjoyed productive outings.

Game 2 -- Florida State 63, Florida 51

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Devin Vassell scored 13 points, M.J. Walker added 12 and Florida State upset No. 6 Florida 63-51 on Sunday, extending its series winning streak to six. The Seminoles (1-1) avoided their first 0-2 start since 2000 thanks to suffocating defense that forced the rival Gators (1-1) into 16 turnovers and a woeful shooting performance. Florida was 14 of 50 from the field, including 4 of 22 from 3-point range. A sellout crowd witnessed FSU take over late in the first half and really seize control after the break. The Gators went 10 minutes with just one field goal -- a dunk on an inbound play -- as Florida State pulled ahead 38-25 in the opening minutes of the second half. The ‘Noles went up by 14 on Anthony Polite’s 3-pointer with 9:31 to play. The Seminoles made 11 of their first 20 shots in the second half. They also finished with five blocked shots and eight steals.

Game 9 -- Indiana 80, Florida State 64

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Devonte Green senior scored a career-high 30 points, knocked down five 3-pointers and helped fuel a late spurt with two big shots to lead undefeated Indiana past No. 17 Florida State 80-64 in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge. Green went 10 of 15 from the field, 5 of 7 on 3s and 5 for 7 at the free throw line. He also grabbed six rebounds and finished with three assists and two steals -- not bad for someone who missed Indiana’s first three games with an injured hamstring. With Green back, the Hoosiers are off to their best start since 2012-13. They earned their third straight win over a ranked team dating to last season and head into Big Ten play with a boost of confidence. It wasn’t just Green, either. Freshman forward Trayce Jackson-Davis had 15 points and eight rebounds, while junior Justin Smith chipped in with 14 points and five boards. Trent Forrest scored 13 to lead the Seminoles, who had their seven-game winning streak snapped. M.J. Walker and Devin Vassell added 10 points apiece.

Game 12 -- Florida State 66, USF 60

SUNRISE, Fla. – Florida State used smothering defense to overcome a 10-point deficit in the final seven minutes and beat South Florida 66-60 in the Orange Bowl Classic. The Seminoles forced 24 turnovers, including seven as they outscored the Bulls 19-3 down the stretch. Florida State forced four shot-clock violations and won despite being outrebounded by 14 and shooting only 40 percent, including 7 for 27 from 3-point range. RaiQuan Gray had 11 points, seven rebounds and three of Florida State’s 13 steals. An-thony Polite, Trent Forrest and M.J. Walker also scored 11 points apiece. Florida State scored 21 points off turnovers to earn its third win in a row. South Florida lost to a ranked team for the 27th consecutive time since 2012. A flurry of nine points in 39 seconds by the Bulls — including a pair of 3s and two free technical foul free throws — helped them lead 57-47 with 6:32 to go. But they didn’t score another field goal until garbage time with 3 seconds left, and committed turnovers on four consecutive possessions as the Seminoles pulled ahead. Devin Vassell’s jumper with two minutes left put Florida State in front to stay. Michael Durr had 15 points and seven rebounds for the Bulls, but they shot just 3 for 15 from 3-point range.

Game 15 -- Florida State 78, Louisville 65

LOUISVILLE. Ky. – M.J. Walker scored 23 points for Florida State as the 18th-ranked Seminoles beat No. 7 Louisville 78-65. The Seminoles endured a big game from Louisville’s Jordan Nwora to pull the upset. The preseason All-American scored 32 points, matching a career high. But the Cardinals could not overcome a 55.2% shooting performance by the Seminoles in losing their second straight. Florida State made 11 of 23 3-pointers. Nwora had a hot hand early for Louisville, scoring 21 points in the first half. The junior shot 6 of 9 from the floor, but the Cardinals combined to make just 10 of 37. They went the last 5:04 without a field goal as the Seminoles took 39-32 lead into the break. Walker helped offset Nwora’s early barrage. The junior came off the bench to score 15 points in the first half on 6-of-8 shooting, including 3 of 5 from 3-point range. Walker finished one point short of his career high. Trent Forrest added 20 points on 9-of-11 shooting, and Devin Vassell scored 14. Florida State led 52-42 with 13:43 remaining. Louisville cut that to 54-51 on Nwora’s putback, but that was as close as the Cardinals would get.

Game 16 -- Florida State 78, Wake Forest 68

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – Devin Vassell scored 17 points and Florida State pulled away in the final 10 minutes to beat Wake Forest 78-68, giving the Seminoles another double-digit win in league play. Florida State got in foul trouble in the first half and sent the Demon Deacons to the line 22 times before the break, then surrendered an 11-0 run out of the break that gave Wake Forest a lead. Yet Florida State tightened up its defense and stopped sending a parade of Demon Deacons players to the foul line, then began to gradually stretch out a lead on the way to a seventh straight win.M.J. Walker scored 12 of his 15 points in the first half for the Seminoles, who went ahead for good on RaiQuan Gray’s 3-pointer at the 14:04 mark. They also held the Demon Deacons to one field goal over 6 1/2 minutes as they finally asserted control, pushing a 52-49 lead to 67-56 on Malik Osborne’s 3-pointer with 2:46 left. Brandon Childress scored 20 points to lead Wake Forest, which played without starter Chaundee Brown due to a lower-leg injury. The Demon Deacons (8-6, 1-3) got off to a slow start to fall behind by a dozen in the opening minutes, but used that 11-0 run to erase a 41-34 halftime deficit and get back in it.

Page 34: NO. 9/9 FLORIDA STATE SEMINOLES (14-2, 4-1 ACC) VS ......With 348 career victories during his tenure at Florida State, 18th-year Head Coach Leonard Hamilton enters the Seminoles’

FSU Hoops Succeeds With Unselfish Players Putting Team First By Gene Frenette Florida Times Union January 10, 2019 Florida State’s basketball program doesn’t need a star to carry its program. The 10th-ranked Seminoles are succeeding by committee and doing things the way coach Leonard Hamilton wants them. For a stretch of three-plus minutes to start the second half Wednesday against Wake Forest, the most annoying college basketball team in the country to play against did everything wrong. They turned the ball over on three consecutive possessions. They missed all five field goal attempts. They were out of whack defensively, which led to Wake Forest going on a 11-0 run on its home floor and taking a 45-41 lead. But as Florida State is wont to do, Leonard Hamilton’s starless team awakened by using its athleticism and length, allowing the Seminoles to permanently regain control of the game they eventually won, 78-68. Just as it did in a 78-65 road win at Louisville four days earlier, FSU snapped out of a funk and went on a 17-5 run, never allowing its opponent to feel comfortable the rest of the game. This is the FSU way. The Seminoles are an eminently beatable team in spurts, often aided by their own self-destruction, but outplaying them over 40 minutes is a difficult chore. They have a tendency to wear people down with a suffocating defense that clogs passing lanes, causing opponents to often rush shots and taking them out of their game plan. FSU’s current success — a seven-game win streak, going a league-best 16-2 in ACC games since last January — didn’t happen overnight. It took Hamilton more than a decade of 18 seasons in Tallahassee for his game-winning formula to evolve, but the No. 10-ranked Seminoles (14-2, 4-1 in ACC) are on a pretty good roll now. They come at opponents in waves, playing 10 or more players each game. You never know from one minute to the next whether guards Trent Forrest, M.J. Walker, Devin Vassell or a relatively unknown player will be the cold-blooded assassin. That’s because Hamilton trusts the second guy near the end of the bench almost as much as his starters on the floor. Case in point: when FSU’s frontcourt ran into early foul trouble at Wake Forest, he put seldom-used, walk-on Harrison Prieto in the game. Playing a career-high 10 minutes, the 6-foot-8 junior contributed two offensive rebound buckets and a steal that led to a Vassell three-pointer. At that point, Prieto had played only 12 minutes all season in blowout wins. Yet Hamilton sent him out there in an ACC road game because he needed a big body to hold the fort until Patrick Williams, Malik Osborne and Dominik Olejniczak could return. “We win by committee and most teams feature people,” Hamilton said Thursday in a phone interview. “We don’t feature one particular person. We let the game come to them. We have a system where we get everybody involved. I think that makes us more challenging to play. The go-to person is the guy with the highest percentage shot. Our guys all feel equal. “We don’t have a Zion Williamson that makes you [media] guys tickle your fancy. We’re not quite as sexy. We are different. We’re not like everybody else.”

That’s part of the appeal in Hamilton’s recruiting pitch. He and top assistant Stan Jones — who has been with Hamilton for 25 years, dating back to his coaching stints with the NBA Washington Wizards and the University of Miami — have convinced players to accept their role. Even if it means reduced playing time. Over the last four seasons, where FSU is 92-31 overall and 38-21 in ACC play, Hamilton’s system has taken the ’Noles to three consecutive NCAA tournaments and a potential top-4 seed this year. After a Sweet 16 and Elite Eight appearance the past two seasons, FSU again looks like someone nobody wants to play because Hamilton has a team — six of the top eight players by playing time are freshmen or sophomores — performing better than the sum of its parts. “It’s the vision the coaches have for us,” said Forrest, a senior and the team’s leading scorer at 12.1 points per game. “Part of the reason you come to FSU is because you know you’re going to play with other unselfish guys. It’s a credit to the coaches for recruiting those players and then the players for buying into it. “So far, everything they’ve said about this program has happened. It doesn’t matter how you get the win. That’s how we play. Some days, you play great. Other days, you can play the sorriest team in D-I and they can go on a run, but it’s how you respond to it that matters.” The players tend to reflect Hamilton’s unflappable sideline demeanor. When things go haywire, like it did briefly against Wake Forest, the Seminoles appear unfazed and just go about their business. “You look over and see [Hamilton] calm, cool and collected,” said Forrest. “That’s a reason a lot of us don’t get worried too much when we hit adversity.” The Seminoles certainly don’t get rattled in tight games coming down to the final minute. Since winning at Duke on Michael Snaer’s buzzer-beater in January 2012, FSU is 36-8 in games decided by one possession or overtime, where it has won eight straight the last three years. Under Hamilton, 71, the fifth-longest tenured coach at any Power 5 school, FSU has gradually made the climb in recent years to challenge the ACC bluebloods, where Duke, North Carolina, Virginia, Louisville and Syracuse have long established traditions. “When you’re in a conference with rich programs that have Hall of Fame coaches, it challenges every fiber you have to compete at a consistent level,” said Hamilton. “We’ve kind of figured out how to maintain who we are. “There’s a reason why all programs are where they are. Florida State had been inconsistent for a long time. The reality is nobody cares about the challenges you face. The bottom line is to get it done.” In the twilight of his coaching career, Hamilton — tied with Maryland’s Lefty Driesell as the sixth-winningest coach in ACC history with 348 victories — has FSU basketball in a good place. Just like Hamilton’s milestone marriage to wife Claudette, with their 50th anniversary approaching in September, the patience he and the FSU administration have had with each other is now bearing fruit. Not many ACC coaches would have survived going their first six years without making the NCAA tournament. Hamilton has taken his share of criticism over the years for in-game strategy and simply not winning enough. His critics have quieted down, especially now that Hamilton is experiencing the kind of consistent success Seminoles’ fans wish they could get back to in football. FSU doesn’t need a star player who can carry the program. It’s doing just fine the Leonard Hamilton way.

The Unconquered Spirit of Trent Forrest By Jim Crosby Unconquered Magazine December 2019 Imagine racing around on a hardwood basketball court, dribbling the ball at top speed and trying to beat players to the basket while experiencing excruciating pain in your big toe. Now think about doing that in 31 more games, over 900 minutes of playing time against elite talent in America’s top basketball conference---the Atlantic Coast Conference---with that big toe throbbing all the time. Got the picture? Then you are looking at FSU’s Trent Forrest who coach Leonard Hamilton says: “represents what the Unconquered Spirit means.” Playing with a bum toe last year Forrest averaged 9.3 points, had 138 assists and 69 steals in 37 games. It is no wonder that a healthy Forrest’s return as a senior leader precipitates high expectations that 2019-20 will be a stellar season for Florida State basketball. Asked about his leadership role Coach Hamilton explains that it is a no-brainer: “Trent has always had the same role he had as a freshman. He came here as a leader and he displayed stronger, better and wiser leadership every year that he has been here. So, we are expecting more of the same.” In the 6th game of his junior season, playing Villanova, an on-court collision caused his big toe to bend way up, far beyond normal. It hurt a lot and at first seemed to be bad case of “turf toe” that was eventually determined to be torn cartilage. Every step hurt. Disdaining mid-season surgery that would have ended his season Forrest elected to play through the pain. How could he manage that? He says: “Kinda just wanting to play so bad for my teammates. I guess it’s just a high pain tolerance is all I can say.” Amazing! And the good news is, after off-season surgery, Trent is back, pain free and as he says; “ready to rock.” You gotta love the game to go through all that. It’s obvious Trent loves basketball. As a baby, when his parents put different small balls in his crib he reached for the basketball. Later, as a youngster he slept with his basketball every night. Even though Forest grew up in the small town of Chipley, population 3,526, his talents did not go unnoticed despite playing in the state’s smallest high school classification. When you score over 3,000 points the scouts will find you. He received offers from Georgia, Ga. Tech, Alabama, Wake Forest, Miami, Tennessee, Providence and Wichita State. He elected to go to Florida State, just 86 miles from home via I-10, because he says: “I felt like I could relate a lot with the things Coach Ham was doing. It was just the relationship I had with the coaches. I was able to trust them, and they were able to trust me about things in their program and even things outside of the program.” Forrest says his biggest adjustment to college basketball was “the speed of the game and understanding the college game. It’s more in-depth and teams are going to have scouting reports on you.” Four years later the Seminoles are looking to Forrest to lead a team that has made it to the NCAA Playoffs three years in a row. In 2018-19 Seminole Basketball had a sparkling, best-ever 29-8 record. This coming off two other stellar 26-win seasons that been topped only once (27 wins in 1971-72). “Just that past experience, especially last year will definitely help me be a better leader this year,” Forrest said.

Forward RaiQuan Gray, who played in 36 games as a freshman agrees: “Last year Trent was one of our leaders and we looked up to him. I feel like this year he will have an even bigger role. I think he will be a vocal leader who brings everybody together.” The late President Ronald Reagan once said: “There is no limit to the amount of good you can do, if you don’t care who gets the credit.” Except for the fact it was before his time the President accurately described Trent Forrest. Coach Hamilton says: “Even though he scored close to 3,000 points in high school, he is such an unselfish player that he plays to win not to get statistics.” Even though he might not light up the scoreboard in his points column he does even better. Corey Clark explained on Warchant.com: “Forrest is one of those rare players who can dominate an opponent without taking shots. That’s the beauty of his game. He puts his imprint on games in every way imaginable.” The basketball court is not the only place where Forrest makes an impact. Ashton Henderson, FSU’s Assistant Athletic Director for Student-Athlete Development, says: “Trent hit the ground running when he matriculated to Florida State University. He has been doing everything with my office for community service. He constantly shows up for everything we have going on. He is there. I send him the text and he brings all the guys with him.” Henderson has been impressed with the way Trent relates with everyone and becomes just one of the group; “He’s a guy who has all that attached to his name and seeing how humble he remains, his meekness and then he still remains so competitive on the court. He will speak to the janitor. He will speak to anybody who needs their day to be brightened. I have always respected that about him. Trent Forrest is somebody you want to model your program after.” Gene Deckerhoff, the Radio Voice of the Seminoles, for over 40 years calls Forrest “a tremendous basketball player” but is equally impressed with his off-court presence. “He’s always got a smile when you see him. Not a moody kind of guy. His teammates love him. He’s the real deal.” Forrest’s upbringing accounts for many of his admirable personality traits. He grew up in a Christian home. His mother, Barbara Lee, is the pastor of All Things New Worship Center and Forrest played drums in the church. Both his mom and dad, Lester Forrest, played basketball for Chipola Junior College. In the mornings when his mom got up at 5:30 a.m., Trent got up and started working on basketball drills. Then after school he worked out as well. That committed work ethic continues. This summer after having the foot operation, before he could walk around again, he would lift weights and practicing dribbling while sitting down. He was determined to be in shape when fall basketball practice rolled around. The things he learned in the backyard, the playgrounds and high school gyms came with Forrest to college. Raquan Gray says: “Trent is a great driver. He is able to move around and find an opening and when he drives he sees everybody. You have to be ready.” In early 2018 the Seminoles were in possession on a 27-game home-winning streak against non-conference foes. That was in jeopardy in an ACC-Big 10 matchup with 19th ranked Purdue leading 72-71 when Forest caught a pass in the lane from Terance Mann, drove in and floated a shot into the basket with 5.2 seconds left to put FSU up 73-72. Not content to admire the shot, Forrest raced back down the court and stole a pass to seal the win and make it 28 in a row for FSU. Those are the kinds of plays Seminole fans have come to expect from Trent Forrest. When the game gets tough Forrest rises to the occasion. He said that he draws some strength from his coach when panic is about to set in: “In pressure situations you look over and Coach Ham has the same face he had at the beginning of the game. He is not showing any panic or

anything,” Forrest said. “You get a timeout, in the crucial time and he is always calm and collected. You see that, and you know there is no need to panic.” Forrest is happy to be able to play basketball close to his home town where family and friends can come to the games. One favor he can do for his friends is to help keep the streak alive against their arch-rivals, the Gators. The Seminoles have won five in a row against them. In 2018, a year that Forrest scored in double-figures 15 times, Forrest scored 13 points and had five assists in FSU’s 81-60 win over Florida. “I definitely want to be able to say I never lost to the Gators. Winning that game gives me lots of ammunition to take back home.” Looking back on his college career Forrest feels like he has maximized the benefits and was able to give back. He is thankful that his scholarship made that possible. Forrest says: “The scholarship means a lot. You can’t thank the Boosters enough because they are investing in the student athletes here. It’s beneficial to people like me to be able to come here and chase their dreams.” Trent Forrest’s scholarship was a sound investment by the Boosters for as Ashton Henderson said: “I am sure that Trent is going to be very successful and will make FSU proud.” After all he embodies the true Seminole Unconquered spirit.
