Revisiting the 5-star recruits from 2004 http://msn.foxsports.com/cfb/story/7762724
Quote : | "18. DT DeMario Pressley, NC State
A fixture on the Wolfpack defensive line since his sophomore season, Pressley started three seasons in Raleigh, flashing the kind of quickness and closing speed that's caught the attention of NFL scouts. Although a variety of nagging injuries prevented him from fulfilling the hype of being the nation's top defensive tackle of 2004, Pressley still had a productive career worthy of a 5-star prospect.
Revised Rating: 3.5 stars" |

Yea, I see a few topics on Packpride that say FYI on Brian Slay on the premium thread. Someone said Slay commited to us at about 9:30 p.m. on rivals. That information might be inaccurate, so I'll edit my post until there is more information.
I might have some inaccurate information, and if that's the case I apologize. Currently his commitment is just a rumor.

Since this is the only active football thread around right now, can some one post that pic,(I think it was taken on the field before the Carolina game), of TOB and the team doing the pledge of the allegience? They had their helmets off, and TOB in the front lookin like a general with his hand over his heart. I was trying to explain that picture and its awsomeness to some one else; but I cant find it. 3/3/2008 12:57:04 PM |

^^We are looking at WR's, and we really don't appear to be looking for any hidden gems, we are targeting some big-time guys. There is a WR out of NC, name escapes me, but he's suppose to be a 4-5 Star caliber player and we're going after him. Hopefully Glennon can get in the ear of some of these guys. 3/3/2008 3:43:14 PM |

Brian Slay is on the ESPN 150 watch list. So I expect him to at least be a 3* prospect. If he makes it he'll definitely be a 4*.
http://tinyurl.com/27q5vx
I'd also like to point out that there is a highlight video that anyone can watch over on his Rivals page. Although he projects as a DE, it looks like his high school played him mostly at DT. It looks like he can shoot the gap well and he got into the backfield a lot in the video.

haha there was a big thread about him somewhere
Quote : | "Since 1998, he has been arrested 6 times on charges including possession of marijuana, assault, and resisting an officer. On May 23, 2007 it was reported that his wife filed a restraining order after he threatened to kill her. On June 12, a 17-year-old foster child who was living in the care of a relative of Dukes accused him of impregnating her. Police say the sex was apparently consensual, and no crime was committed, but they are investigating. When the girl confronted Dukes, he allegedly got angry and threw a bottle of Gatorade at her." |

Brian Slay found the sincerity he was looking for in Raleigh, while Jared McAdoo realized there’s no place like home.
Those factors led both the junior defensive linemen to make oral commitments to N.C. State and North Carolina this week.
Slay, a 6-foot-3, 255-pounder from Ashburn, Va., became the first player to join the Wolfpack’s recruiting Class of 2009 after visiting the Raleigh campus last weekend.
“I think he really liked the straight honesty and the way (N.C. State defensive line) Coach (Keith) Willis approached this,’’ said Mickey Thompson, Slay’s head coach at Stone Bridge High School. “You know in the recruiting process you’ve got a lot of people telling you this and that. He just wanted to go where somebody had been straightforward with him.’’
N.C. State was the first school to offer Slay a scholarship, but he was receiving serious interest from Southeastern Conference programs like Auburn, Georgia and Georgia Tech, according to Thompson.
Slay was probably more well-known to the SEC recruiters prior to last season because he began his prep career at Harrison High School in Kennesaw, Ga. He was an all-district, all-region and second-team all-state selection as a sophomore at Harrison after making 88 tackles and 10 sacks.
But Slay’s father changed jobs after the 2006 season and the family moved to Ashburn where he immediately became a key performer in Stone Bridge’s tradition-rich program.
“We’ve really had a weakness up front on defense over the years,’’ Thompson said. “But he came in and took care of one side of the football. Nobody could run or throw to his side.
“I don’t think we’ve had many guys in our program with his size and athleticism.’’
Slay produced 65 tackles and six sacks for a 13-1 team that won the state AAA division 5 championship. 3/5/2008 8:23:42 AM |

McLendon's bail was set at $5000.00 and he is scheduled to appear in court on October 8, 2007." |
