On Thursday, I reported that the NC State Men’s Basketball Team was having a monster recruiting weekend, and Rivals believes it’s the third biggest recruiting weekend in the nation.

NC State will bring to campus two of its commits and is attempting to turn two official visitors into Wolfpack pledges, as well.

Nick Farrar committed to the program earlier this month, while junior guard Terquavion Smithdid the same earlier this year. Top in-state products,

Dontrez Styles, JaDun Michael, Zaharee Maddox and Carter Whitt will be on campus, as will top-25 junior Quincy Allen. Those players will be taking unofficial visits to the ACC program. However, most of the attention will be focused on John Hugley and

Deivon Smith. NC State received their first official visits, but are in the best spot for Smith. He will visit Louisville next weekend and the prevailing thought is that the Wolfpack and Cardinals will vie for his signature, which will likely come in November. For Hugley, Miamiand Pitt are two to keep an eye on, though NC State has picked up ground in recent weeks. (Rivals)
