Think Fagan opted out fairly early in the season.
Durden had injuries but also ended up opting out eventually(believe after our game).

Durden should have a really good shot at starting next year, Fagan is probably more of a 2-deep guy so we aren't having to play walk-ons behind Ingle.

Early signing day

This is vague but what happened with that LB that decommitted about a month ago from someone else and we thought our chances were good? Obv didn't commit here just curious where he ended up

Nevermind, figured out how to search. Bryce Steele and Boston College.

As far as I can tell, no real surprises. I’d expect we’ll still add a few more guys (either through transfer or the later signing day) before it’s all said and done. And probably lose a couple guys to transfer also.

"apparently Dunn is now going to Texas."

My #sources have now confirmed this

Like to hear this:

Quote :

"NC State signed 19 players during the early December period. 247Sports.com ranked the Wolfpacks 2021 recruiting class as the 31st best in the nation and sixth-best in the Atlantic Coast Conference. ESPN ranks their recruiting class in the top 25 for the first time since 2008. They have five receivers/tight ends in this recruiting class, continuing a trend from last year when they had six in the 2020 recruiting class. "

Disappointed about losing Dunn to Texas but maybe that means our secondary is good enough he thinks playing time may be an issue? I'm trynna be optimistic here.

Full list of early signing day so far:

Aaron McLaughlin - QB
Micah Crowell - WR
Jordan Poole - ATH (LB)
Travali Price - WDE
Chase Hattley - S
Caden Fordham - OLB
Julian Gray - WR
Cedric Seabrough - TE
Zyun Reeves - SDE
Thornton Gentry - C
Nate Evans - CB
Jaleel Davis - OT
Fredrick Seabrough - TE
Mario Love - CB
Demie Sumo - RB
Jakolbe Baldwin - WR
Lyndon Cooper - OG
Sean Brown - S
Jayden Tate - LS

Transfers:
Chandler Zavala - OG - Fairmont State
Cyrus Fagan - DB - FSU
Cory Durden - DT - FSU

--------------------------------------------------

Overall, I'm pretty happy with this class. Only 1 RB which makes sense given our current depth there, lots of focus on WRs/TEs to hopefully get some more consistency there. I'd like to see more guys on the secondary signing but not a bad group overall

Losing Dunn stinks, but dude is from Louisiana and the closer to home option was clearly appealing.

The 2021 class looks really good on paper and love the transfers(Zavala and Durden could very well end up starting).

The 2022 class is going to be really, really strange. With the blueshirt in this class of one of the twins, we have 20 true FR in the 2021 class to go with the 20 true FR from the 2020 class(Booker-Brown has already left), next year we're looking at 40 true FR on roster.

Barring a lot of attrition, our 2022 class will probably be <10 HS kids, maybe even only 5 or 6. Also not sure how you can really evaluate who to offer in that class, a lot of the kids haven't played football or attended camps in over a year. Going to be a lot of catching up to do on 2022 kids and a lot of misranked kids by 247/Rivals/ESPN.

Texas returns both starting CBs and I can't imagine their secondary is worse than ours. So I'm guessing he just wanted to play for a football "power".

Is there a chance Pennix/Houston leave? Could see either one bolting to get more PT.

Really happy with this recruiting class outside of missing out on Jabril McNeill. Like the transfers too. Chandler Zavala’s mother apparently works at State. He was already getting scouted by some NFL scouts even at his previous D2 school.

12/17/2020 7:38:07 PM

Landed a large juco OT Anthony Belton

12/19/2020 12:03:15 AM

Rylan Vann, brother of DT Davin Vann is the first commit of 2022 class

We have had a sold O line in recent years. Glad to see Doeren is keeping us stocked with talent.
