Wolfpack Showing Interest in 2011 Forward Jacob Lawson
With the 2010 recruiting class shaping up nicely it is easy to forget about the 2011 class which hasn’t drawn much publicity. NC State has been looking the hardest at Mississippi wingman Rodney Hood, but also have been showing some interest in an in-state prospect, Jacob Lawson. Listed at 6’8, Lawson is the teammate of 2012 Wolfpack commit Joseph Uchebo at Oak Ridge Academy and is just starting to gain some national attention. While his game is still raw, Jacob is “off the charts” according to his coach and plays the game above the rim. He is also is a...

Who is Savon Goodman?  Many NC State fans are asking this question today.  The Wolfpack fan base is curious why his name just popped up on their radar on signing day…so late in the game.  Why has no one been talking about this 4-star combo forward?   Well, this morning we give you the answers you’re looking for. Most college coaches haven’t been recruiting Goodman this season, because most of them were under the impression that he would prep next season in order to get his academics in line.  In fact, there was a plan in place for him to go to Brewster Academy next season to prep for a year.  Well, the plan might have changed.  According to Goodman’s head coach Rob Moore at Philadelphia Constitution, he has qualified academically.  Once the word got out that Goodman might be on the market, high level division-I coaches started calling in an aggressive manner. “Since he qualified academically, Savon decided that he wanted to go to college now.  Many kids go prep because they want to better there options.  That’s not the case for Savon.  He has colleges from all the major conferences knocking at his door right now,” said Moore….

Not so fast my friends! Just when you though NC State was done in 2012 after missing on Amile Jefferson, we learn that Gottfried and company are hot on the heels of another 4 star forward. This time it’s Savon Goodman who is still scheduling visits according to Adam Zagoria. N.C. State is now recruiting Savon Goodman, who is still planning visits, his high school coach told @SNYtv — Adam Zagoria (@AdamZagoria) May 16, 2012   Goodman is a 6’6 forward who may seem a bit undersized, but has some serious game. With State now looking to sure-up their frontcourt he could be a great fit and get some real playing time on a team that will likely be a contender for the ACC’s number 1 spot. How many teams can say that? Here is what Zagsblog.com had to say. Rob Moore, Goodman’s coach at Philly Constitution, told SNY.tv Wednesday that N.C. State was now recruiting the 6-6 Goodman and that he planned to take more visits after the dead period ends. He recently visited Seton Hall and Pitt.

Many around NC State University fully expected top 25 recruit, Amile Jefferson, to announce his intentions to attend NC State on Tuesday. The addition of Jefferson would have meant ever more  talent for next season and enough front court depth to help the Pack forget about DeShawn Painter and Tyler Harris, both of whom transferred this offseason. Unfortunately, Jefferson didn’t select NC State and instead chose cross-town rival, Duke. Now, NC State faces a front court short on experience, requiring sophomore Thomas De Thaey and redshirt junior Jordan Vandenberg to step up in a big way. Fist off, let’s just go ahead and spill the beans on the Jefferson recruitment. This one went on forever and information was always different. There were time early on where people around NC State said things like “he’s our” and “we’re not letting this one get away.” And then there were times when we were told “he hasn’t been in communication with the staff as much lately.” and “I think he’s leaning towards Duke.” However, just two weeks ago we got information from two separate sources that Jefferson had made it pretty clear to the those within the NC State program, that State was going…
