RALEIGH, N.C. - As February signing day approaches, NC State head football coach Dave Doeren has announced the geographical recruiting areas that each member of his 2019 coaching staff will cover. In addition, he has assigned the responsibilities of recruiting coordinator to co-offensive coordinator/wide receivers coach George McDonald.
The Wolfpack, which boasts more players from the state of North Carolina than any other ACC team, will continue to emphasize its commitment to instate recruiting, as eight coaches are assigned to cover the state.
"With four new coaches and a restructuring of responsibilities on our staff, this was a good time to take a look at the recruiting areas," said Doeren. "We've come up with a structure that will help us to continue to build on the recruiting success that we've enjoyed recently."
