Last we checked in with 2020 local guard Carson McCorckle he was fresh off an offer from NC State. We caught up with him that night to talk about that offer.

Now, Carson is planning an unofficial visit to NC State to watch the season opening ‘Primetime with the Pack’ scrimmage this Friday. McCorckle is a local kid from Raleigh (freshman at Broughton HS) who has yet to even play a game in high school but currently is being courted by some of the biggest names in college basketball. (highlight video)

Another recruit who will be in the house is 2020 PG Jalen Cone. He’s only 5’8, but man is this kid an athlete. Remember, he’s only a freshman this year too and has yet to play a single high school game. He’s also from North Carolina and plays on CP3 All-Stars with McCorckle.

Cone is a good shooter with solid instincts, a quick first step and explosive bounce. He has yet to receive any official offers.

Who cares about the 2020 team? If they are really good, the Dukes, Tar Heel, Wildcats, or Kansas will get them. Start recruit the middle of the road 4 starts and keep them together for more than one or two years. Rebuild the program like Virginia and Wisconsin have done. This up and down makes me sick.
