Hope our chances are good. We need to sign this young man. To compete at the highest level, we need four top 50 players on the roster. 4 top 50 and 8 from 51-125 playing CKK's system and we will compete for championships. Keep that 13th scholly open, just in case a diamond wants to fall in your lap.

Corey Evans when asked a question about the biggest surprise visits in the fall...

"It isn't just one particular visit that stands out but rather a program as a whole. Kevin Keatts has hit the ground running at NC State and after patching together his backcourt with Lavar Batts and Braxton Beverly this summer, the fact that he and his staff were able to gain traction with five-star wing Keldon Johnson and top-50 big man David McCormack really stands out. Two of the more recruited prospects from coast to coast, Keatts and his staff didn't have the chance to develop the proper in-roads that many others had done with each prospect over the past three years. It doesn't seem to have mattered with McCormack or Johnson as both used one of their five official visits allotted on the program. It may not lead to an NC State commitment but from the outside looking in, with another year or two at the helm in Raleigh, Keatts may have the chance to secure a five-star recruit and display that the Pack, just like the local UNC and Duke blueblood programs, can also attract elite talent to their campus."

I think his dad is the key. Dad would prefer Keldon to be within driving distance AND to get a shot at being one of the 'featured' players on his NCAA team.

Also heard that UK passed on an 'in home' visit with Johnson so they could visit Zion Williamson.....

Saddiq Bey will take his second official visit to Xavier this weekend (Sept. 15). Bey is down to six schools. He took an official visit to Pittsburgh earlier this month (Sept. 1) and will take official visits to Northwestern (Sept. 22) and Miami (Sept. 29). We made the final six but no OV scheduled to my knowledge.


I think Xavier, Pitt and Northwestern are the top three.

Looking better and better. SO looking forward to the upcoming season.
We're all Red on the inside. Some of us are just Blue in the face, and they're sick.

Would love to close out this class with Johnson, McCormack and Hamilton. That would give us two top 50 and two more top 100...and all 4 kids from within a 3 hour drive of Raleigh. Pretty impressive for a new staff.

I feel the same way. I dont think it actually happens.....but we can dream.


Two NC kids, Two SE VA kids.

Win a LOT of games recruiting like that.

Great question.


I think we can get one of them....but still wouldnt make a solid prediction on which one. Both guys are very interested in what we have to offer....'immediate' minutes and plenty of 'touches' on offense.

This is great to read. I have to say, seeing Wade doing so well, so quickly in recruiting at LSU made me wonder if we'll ever be able to get talent in to NC State quickly. Looks like we're in the best hands possible. Hope we can close the deal on McCormack and Johnson, although I'd be ecstatic with one of the two as well.

Dunlow, how do you feel about our chances with Hellems? Know he's on a visit to SC this weekend.

Thanks for your insight. I really hope we can land one of them. Honestly my gut says McCormick, but I wouldn't be surprised if we got Johnson instead. I don't know if we could get both, but it would be really special if we could!

Missouri and Arksansas are also pushing hard Va Tech too. Not hearing/finding much info on this one right now from my end.

Keldon Johnson leaves UK without committing. Still a bit unsure if he will be a 'fall' or 'spring' signee.

UK would probably take Johnson or Quentin Grimes right now(Grimes visits Texas this weekend, UK on the 29th). Might be a 'first one to commit' scenario.


I still feel like UK may not be the place for Keldon. Seems like his people are VERY concerned about the roster that Cal will field next year.
Bulldogwolf27
How long do you want to ignore this user?
And they should be concerned. They will have some upperclassmen at the 2 spot and cal loves to play big. Might be a numbers crunch for Keldon if he went there.

I really hope we land big mac, he is needed in the low post for us.

one I think we should keep an eye on. This kid could be the next kinda local kid to blossom. Have been keeping an eye on his progress and I think he could be a legit ACC level recruit.

This one could get very interesting. I think we could be in Keldon's top two or three right now. Legit shot at landing him, IMO. Good shot at him siging early, which could help us. I hope Dad is serious about wanting to drive to all Keldon's games.

Rumors that Florida has made a strong move in the Devin Dotson recruitment. There were some rumors that we may try to jump back in this one. Looks like KU is sliding a bit after being the perceived leader.

Pretty much the same stuff we have been saying for weeks. State has the PT and shots available for a big like Mccormack and/or a wing like Keldon Johnson.
