Wolfpack Misses on DT Recruit, Extends More Offers

NC State missed out on a three-star defensive tackle Monday when Sugick Terion of National Christian Academy in Fort Washington, Md., commited to Vanderbilt. The Wolfpack and fellow ACC school Wake Forest were his other finalists.
In a video announcement hosted by Rivals.com, Terion said he chose the Commodores because of the opportunity to help change the culture of their program. He did, however, have praise for State's coaching staff and program, which produced his favorite player, Bradley Chubb.

Despite the recruiting setback, the Wolfpack did get some potentially encouraging news Monday when three-star defensive end Devin Lee included it among his top eight schools, along with ACC rivals Duke, Wake Forest, Georgia Tech and Boston college, as well as Kansas State, Illinois and UAB.
