COMMIT VIDEO: Timothy McKay
NAME: Timothy McKay
POSITION: Offensive Lineman
RANK: ***
VITALS: 6'4/290/5.2
NOTES: NC State's first commitment in the 2019 class, Raleigh (NC) Wakefield offensive lineman Timothy McKay has a huge upside.
Timothy originally picked NC State over Duke, and he has serious ties to the Wolfpack as he is the younger brother of Wolfpack redshirt freshman quarterback Matt McKay.
Like Matt, Timothy is extremely young for his class. He just turned 16 years old in mid-January, which means he will enroll early at NC State in December as a 16-year old freshman.
Because of this, McKay maintains a higher upside than your typical freshman, given some of his classmates will be two years or older than him. He hit a growth spurt recently and now checks in at 6-foot-4 and 290 pounds, and at his age he could get even bigger.
There is a lot to like about McKay on film.
He has quick feet and a high-motor and seems to already have sound technique for such a young lineman. He's a very smart player and he has the ability to play either guard or tackle for the Wolfpack.
This year he is expected to play left tackle for Wakefield, but he could be moved around based on opponent and/or scheme.
Here is your chance to catch the Wolfpack commitment in action!
