WATCH: NC State prospect Saddiq Bey’s Summer Mixtape

Published

on

Saddiq Bey is ranked as the #82 overall player in the class of 2018 by 247. He unofficially visited NC State (who made his Final 6) back on June 30th, and he received his offer from Keatts and his team on May 7th. He officially visited Raleigh earlier this month.

Over the month of September Bey took official visits to Miami (September 29), Northwestern (September 22), Xavier (September 15) and Pitt (September 1). It looks like Princeton is the one team in his Final 6 that will not be getting an official visit (each player only gets 5 official visits).

Bey is believed to be a Wolfpack lean at this point and would be a nice addition to Keatts 2018 roster. We’ll keep you updated on his decision date and status.

Published

on

2024 4-Star Shooting Guard Paul McNeil (6’6″/185) will be taking an Official Visit to NC State next weekend.

ESPN ranks McNeil as the #17 overall player nationally in the 2024 recruiting class, and the #2 player in the state of North Carolina. I don’t understand how recruiting databases work, but at some point this year he will be a 5-star player according to ESPN as long as he stays in the Top-25.

McNeil plays for Richmond Senior in Rockingham, North Carolina.

This is huge for NC State to get a player of McNeil’s caliber to come in for an Official Visit this early in the process.
