2016 5-star Center Udoka Azubuike is on an official visit this weekend at NC State, and from what I am hearing it has gone exceptionally well.  The NC State coaches met specifically with Azubuike and his family on Friday night after after the former NC State players hung out at head coach Mark Gottfried’s house.

NC State 5-star 2016 Shooting Guard target Rawle Alkins was at NC State for an unofficial on Saturday with a slew of other recruits, and he teased Wolfpack Nation with this picture of himself, Azubuike, NC State commit Dennis Smith Jr..

The NC State coaches are very optimistic about where they stand with Azubuike.  Wolfpack fans give a shout out to Azubuike on Twitter and let him know you want him in the Red-and-White.
