NC State is recruiting Shakeel Moore again.
Some scouts just dont seem to like his game that much. We even had some NCSU guys who didnt think he was really ACC material until a few months ago.Engineer97 said:Dun,Dunlow66 said:
Could he get a ranking bump down the road?
Another big night for Devonte.Dunlow66 said:
Not recruiting related...but just wanted to pass along that both Ky Bowman and Chris Clemons made NBA rosters this year.
and Devonte Graham looks like he will be a long term NBA player. Scored 23 in his first game of the season for Charlotte.

Thanks for the info , Dun. Scary to think that we should have had Devonte on the NC State roster. Along with the Martin twins. I know that Coach Gott did some good things at State, but he also bungled even more. Should have gone ahead and offered to Devonte. Kids develop. We had plenty of roster space.
To think, we could have had 3 future NBA players in the same roster ( along with TJ)...shows how questionable Gott's coaching skills were and still are.
I'm still hearing good things about Josh Hall.PicklePacker said:

That's good news Dun. I hope like heck he comes here.Dunlow66 said:I'm still hearing good things about Josh Hall.PicklePacker said:

Missing on Clark and Graham will always sting and would have loved to have seen the Martins play for KK. But, another example of not so nationally heralded NC kids that could have (and should have) been recruited by NC State is Charlotte native Grant Williams. Had 3 offers out of high school...Harvard, Yale, and UT. Look what he did at UT and now he is contributing major minutes for the Celtics and playing really well. Remember that Steph Curry kid? Had one offer...Davidson. He turned out to be pretty good. Point is, the state of NC produces a plethora of talent almost every year. I don't care what you're 'ranking' is or how many 'stars' you have. If you dominate in the top levels of NC high school basketball, you can play in the ACC.WolfpackSI said:Tootie4Pack said:

Gott was nothing more than a smooth talking crook. That made him a good recruiter. His player development was atrocious. He was clueless at identifying talent. His son freaking played with Jerome Robinson and he missed out on him. Not to mention Devonte Graham, Gary Clark, Chris Clemons growing in our backyard and begging to come to state. Drove off the twins. He was pretty much forced to offer Thomas Allen because he missed out on so many local kids. Even that offer came months after it should have. Gott did more damage than good for us.
Pretty much a fact that he paid players to play for his prep school before being hired a couple of years ago by DepaulPackfan8 said:
I'm confused by the DePaul connection but Shane "money bag" Heirman scares me

Ambrose-Hylton finishing up his Official Visits with a trip to Bama. Says he will announce via Twitter before the Early Signing Period begins(Nov 13)
Still keep hearing Dayton as a real contender with Hylton. Pack also still in it but the Josh Hall recruitment is NCSU's top priority right now.

a Sunday/Monday visit
Depaul didnt even get Friday/Saturday?
Ingram looks like he may be the breakout star on that team while Zion is out.PackDaddy said:
Yea sorry James but the Lakers were absolute idiots for doing what they did
Agreed, you can win at a high level with in-state recruits. You just have to have an eye for talent and a strong developmental program. This is how state will start competing at the highest level again...not through competing with the big bloods for every recruit.RowanWolf said:Missing on Clark and Graham will always sting and would have loved to have seen the Martins play for KK.
