Dude grew up in a UNC house and as a UNC fan. Not every school gives scholarships to long snappers, so he took the offer from us to lock up a spot. Once UNC offered I believe most assumed he was gone and some reports out we started looking for a back-up plan weeks ago.
Can't fault a kid for going to his life-long favorite school, hell he turned down a scholarship to UGA too. Finding a long snapper shouldn't be too hard.
Really feels like part of the offer for Little was to get back at us and some feels like it's just to encourage CJ Clark(4* DT teammate) to follow him and commit to UNC over us. 4/30/2018 10:13:17 AM |

Landed 3* LB tonight. 2019 LB Jaylon Scott. The 6-foot-2, 230-pounder is rated the No. 30 outside linebacker in the country and No. 20 rising senior in the state & had offers from Clemson, Colorado, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, Syracuse and West Virginia. 5/16/2018 10:34:41 PM |

nice. seems like a solid pick up 5/17/2018 8:57:19 AM |

Think if we can land Drake Thomas we'll be fairly set at LB for the next few years.
Wouldn't be surprised to see Payton Wilson move to DE though. 5/17/2018 3:00:21 PM |

sounds like we're also in pretty good with LB Traveon Freshwater, who has a great name, is a high 3 star, and is teammates with 4 star athlete JR Walker (who called State his leader a couple months ago) 5/17/2018 4:31:14 PM |

isnt drake thomas thayer thomas's brother? and we just awarded him a scholarship, so you think there'd be some good vibes there. 5/17/2018 5:24:07 PM |

Drake is also best friends with payton wilson. It was said during wilsons 2nd recruitment that whoever got him would likely get drake as well. 5/17/2018 6:06:55 PM |

Hes already listed at 236 on gopack. Thats prolly just weight he put on from not being able to condition properly after his knee injury though. I too wouldnt be surprised to see him end up at DE 5/18/2018 8:57:11 AM |

Any chance the kid who decommiteed from duke signs with us? 5/21/2018 1:38:11 PM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
^We never stopped recruiting him even after he committed.
We'll be active but I think he's going to let his recruitment play out for a while. Not one of those cases where he decommitted because he was 100% ready to commit somewhere else. 5/21/2018 2:55:20 PM |

3 star from GA...offers from Ole Miss, GT, South Carolina and several smaller programs. 5/21/2018 5:48:19 PM |
dmspack oh we back 25462 Posts user info edit post |
Luke Deal, TE (3* on Rivals and 247, 4* on ESPN) is deciding on Friday. sounds like he's down to us, Clemson, Auburn, Michigan, and ND.
Jamari Williams OG 3* is also deciding Friday...sounds like it's down to us and Louisville, but UL is expected to get him from what I read.
Carter Colquitt OT 3* i think is deciding next Monday (28th). sounds like it's down to us and Ole Miss. 5/22/2018 9:39:38 AM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
Staff apparently sees Knight as an ATH and still really want to land him. Sounds like Pennix where they'll give him a crack at RB but think he has the tools to play multiple positions.
Look at 5* RB(#1 RB in the '19 class) Quavaris Crouch. A lot of analysts think he's actually a better prospect at LB than RB. That's pretty crazy. 5/22/2018 9:40:42 AM |
wolfpack2105 All American 12428 Posts user info edit post |
^^colquitt isnt deciding on monday. Hes gonna take an OV to state and ole miss before deciding.
^word is crouch may actually prefer to play LB in college so teams are recruiting him as an athlete 5/22/2018 10:14:10 AM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
Yeah Colquitt should decide in June.
Williams is picking UL.
Deal is really interesting. Know he's our #1 TE and has offers from basically every big time school(think Bama just offered him last week). Sounds like no one is sure where he's going but rumors that Clemson isn't going to be the landing spot, which is pretty surprising because I felt like they were the favorite to land him from the beginning. 5/22/2018 11:38:34 AM |
dmspack oh we back 25462 Posts user info edit post |
saw it posted elsewhere that he was deciding the 28th. obviously that was wrong. my bad.
Quote : | "Williams is picking UL. " |
yeah, that's what i posted...just thought it was worth posting the update on a couple guys that are announcing soon and considering us as a finalist.5/22/2018 12:08:03 PM |
dmspack oh we back 25462 Posts user info edit post |
i guess this is where the thing about Colquitt announcing soon came from...InsidePackSports tweeted this:
Quote : | "Buford (GA) offensive lineman Carter Colquitt has been scheduled to announce his commitment on May 26. Inside Pack Sports has the latest on his commitment ($). http://bit.ly/2x3DTTe " |
i don't have the subscription so idk what it says, but the headline reads like he was previously planning to announce 5/26...but no longer is. which would make sense with what others posted about him announcing later in June.

Was posted yesterday on packpride that he had decided against deciding in may and instead wanted to take visits to ole miss and nc state in june. He originally was going to announce on monday 5/22/2018 2:30:01 PM |
dmspack oh we back 25462 Posts user info edit post |
gotcha, that's what i figured after you and Luda said he'd be announcing later. 5/22/2018 2:36:08 PM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
Next decisions coming we should be paying attention to:
Luke Deal(4* TE) - 5/25 Drake Thomas(3* LB) - 6/1 Carter Colquitt(3* OL) - Likely mid-to-late June(last OV will be with NC State the weekend of 6/14)
Jacob Zeno(3* QB) also posted something about "big news coming" on Twitter last night, so perhaps a commitment soon? Not sure if we lead, but we're in it. 5/23/2018 9:16:04 AM |
wolfpack2105 All American 12428 Posts user info edit post |
^on zeno, apparently the main dude at packpride thinks the qb we ultimately end up with hasnt been offered yet...so i guess he doesnt feel great about our chances with zeno, calzada or johnson 5/23/2018 10:28:59 AM |

I think they just put a ton of pressure on a visiting group to commit one weekend and so they were probably soft commits all along 5/23/2018 12:16:39 PM |

^Plus Duke has a strict no visits allowed for committed players. This rule helped lead to Palmer decommitting last year. 5/23/2018 5:46:10 PM |

Heritage LB Drake Thomas (brother of WR Thayer Thomas and friends with LB Payton Wilson) committed to State over Clemson, Alabama, Virginia Tech, Tennessee, etc.

CJ Clark 4-Star Defensive Tackle (6’3”/308) will be announcing June 18th. He list us in his top 5, we were the 1st to offer and he has been on campus several times, most recently at the spring game. He says UNC is recruiting him the hardest. He is a consensus 4-Star prospect. Rivals ranks him as the #192 overall player in the 2019 Class, and ESPN ranks him as the #6 player in the state.
Anyone know what our chances are??? 6/5/2018 5:26:44 PM |

Yeah Clark visited UGA, then had a visit to SC scheduled and cancelled it to go back to UGA with his family, and then announced his commitment date shortly after. He's going to UGA.
Though we're having camps Friday and Saturday, so don't be surprised to see another commitment or two. 6/6/2018 8:56:38 AM |
