4-Star 2024 Small Forward Jahki Howard (6’7″/180) took an Unofficial Visit to NC State yesterday alongside 4-Star Shooting Guard Paul McNeil, who verbally committed to run with the Wolfpack yesterday.
Howard is ranked as the #51 overall player nationally in the 2024 class by Rivals, and the #4 player in the state of Georgia according to ESPN. Howard plays for Overtime Elite in Atlanta, where 2023 NC State signee Trey Parker plays.
He also holds offers from Georgetown, Georgia Tech, Providence, Auburn, Rutgers, Illinois, Texas A&M, Mississippi St, Wake Forest, Florida, LSU, Ole Miss, Arizona St, Kansas, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, Arkansas, and others.
As far as I can tell, Howard doesn’t hold an offer from NC State at this point.

You are forgetting the Newman kid as well.
wolfpack74 Wolfer96 Do a search of this kid. He is already built like a man and has a 20 foot wingspan. Between Kapita and Anya they could do hands across Raleigh between the 2 of them. He is from the Congo and it seems lately there is a lot of news about kids from Africa lying about their age. He could be 25 for all we know.

Wolfer96 That’s great. Where did you get the news?
Wolfpack just added another. Ted Kapita! 6’10” 245lbs. Nice addition to our front court. Alright coaches that is enough for this season. Focus on 2017-18. Wow this means that after the mass exodus following this season we will still have a group to build around. 2017-2018: Gone: Dennis (PG) – NBA Abu (PF) – NBA Yurt7 (C)- NBA Hendo (SG) – Grad Anya (C) – Grad Still here (assuming no xfers): Johnson (PG) Dorn (SG) Rowan (SG) Kirk (SF) Hicks (PF) Kapita (PF/C) Freeman (PF)? That’s at least 6 players remaining for 2017-2018. Would need to add depth at PG,… Read more »
wolfpack74 I have that much confidence in Dennis Smith. The Wolfpack has never had a PG like this kid. This will be the best PG we’ve had since Corch Sr. Dennis will lead this team to a great season in spite of Gott’s horrible coaching. All of this is assuming that Dennis can stay healthy. Even if Yurt7 doesn’t qualify I still expect a really good season. Although I still think we could add 1 more to help inside. PF or C.
Let’s not get the cart before the horse. How about that for good colloquial saying in North Carolina. First, the big kid hasn’t been cleared, and second, Johnson hasn’t qualified for this year. Do we know if they can play together, not yet. Individually they look great but we will have to wait and see if they can mess. But if they do, then I take back all the bad things I have said about Gott. Last year was something to never think about again. Looks like early signing is a thing of the past. Just have to get use… Read more »
I mean I get that more kids are waiting till the very end of the recruiting cycle to see who goes pro, which new recruits they may have to compete with for minutes, etc. Still surprising the number and quality of recruits that the Wolfpack has hauled in this late in the game. What I’m curious about is… how much of this great recruiting can be attributed to the new coaching hires and how much of it was DSJ? How many of these kids came for a visit and got to run the court with DSJ and thought… man I… Read more »
