IPS Take On Malik Dunlap: Another prospect flying under the radar, Malik Dunlap's recruitment stalled after he missed most of his junior year with an injury.

That didn't prevent NC State from vigorously pursuing the versatile defender.

Checking in at 6-foot-4 and 205 pounds, Dunlap played cornerback this season for Harding.  He excelled in man coverage, and his head coach believes he could play that position in college.  However, with his frame and athleticism, he should fit in nicely at safety for NC State.

Dunlap gives you a unique versatility. His length and size enables him to play around the box, but he also has the coverage skills required to defend the wide-open college passing attacks you'll face each week in the ACC. 

Look for him to redshirt as a true freshman before becoming a contributor in 2019.
