Long: "They've Always Been One Of My Favorite Schools"

You don't often hear athletes from New Jersey say they grew up liking NC State, but Willingboro, N.J. athlete Chris Long‍ says the Wolfpack were always at the front of his mind right from the start of the recruiting process – and even before he started to be courted by colleges.

"I loved it. They have always been one of my favorite schools," Long said.

That was how the 6-0, 170 pound athlete felt before he ever visited Raleigh.
