NC State’s Depth Chart vs. Ball State (with notes)

Published

NC State released their depth chart for their matchup against Ball State this Saturday night yesterday at Dave Doeren’s weekly press conference.

Notes

  • Last week there was an “OR” between Freshman Timothy McKay and Redshirt Freshman Derrick Eason at Right Tackle, with the former being listed before the latter. This week there is no “OR”, and Eason has jumped over McKay to serve as Redshirt Junior Justin Witt’s backup.
  • Freshman Nose Tackle Joshua Harris was third string on the depth chart last week, but isn’t on it at all this week. He has battled injury, and has yet to see the field through 3 games. The same is true for Freshman Defensive Tackle CJ Clark.
  • There is now an “OR” in between the names of Redshirt Junior Brock Miller and Redshirt Freshman Payton Wilson at the BUCK Linebacker position. Wilson ranks 4th on the team in tackles.
  • Senior Kishawn Miller is now the starter at Left Cornerback. Last week Sophomore Teshaun Smith was at the top of the list, with an “OR” between his name and Miller’s. Miller started the season opener in 2018. He transferred to NC State prior to the 2018 season from Georgia Military College.

Ok, I’m old. Alright. NCSU Class of 1969. Earle Edwards was the coach during my 4 years there and we didn’t always win but the teams we played all knew they had been in a scrap. Our non-conference games in 1969 were Miami, Florida State, Houston, and Penn State. South Carolina and Maryland were conference games then. Fans today don’t get to see the train pass by old Riddick Stadium (on campus). Football has gotten a lot more sophisticated. What hasn’t changed is that heart, effort, and hard work still dominate on the field. I look at the roster and… Read more »

NC State just landed a commitment from Akron Safety Kerry Martin Jr. (6’1”/195).

Martin Jr. began an Official Visit at NC State yesterday.

Prior to the visit, Martin Jr. was familiar with NC State, because he was recruited by Wolfpack Defensive Coordinator Tony Gibson before he left West Virginia to come to Raleigh. Even though he never coached him, a relationship was established.

Martin Jr.’s connections to NC State are deeper than that. Former NC State Cornerback Derrek Pitts, who is currently a member of the Tampa Bay Bucs, is his cousin.

This past year, Martin Jr. recorded 45 tackles, 2 interceptions and 6 pass breakups for Akron, starting in 9 of the 11 games he played in. His PFF Grade was 68.9.

In 2022, he had 53 tackles, 1 interception and 1 pass breakup, starting in 9 of the 11 games he played in. Martin Jr.’s PFF Grade was 60.9.

In 2019, as a Freshman for West Virginia, Martin Jr. earned PFF Freshman All-American honors, recording a grade of 70.6, with 50 tackles and 3 pass breakups.

NC State offered Stephen F. Austin (FCS) Transfer Defensive Tackle Brandon Lane (6’3″/300) yesterday.

Lane started in 6 of the 11 games he played in for Stephen F. Austin this past season. He finished the year with 44 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks. His PFF Grade was 74.6, which ranked 4th on the Lumberjacks Defense. His 79.9 Run Defense Grade ranked 3rd on the team. In 2022, Lane played 7 games as a reserve for Stephen F. Austin, recording 11 tackles 2.5 tackles for loss and 1 sack.

Lane spent his first two collegiate seasons at South Dakota State (2000-21). In 2000, he played in 1 game. In 2021, he played in 3 games as a reserve for the Jackrabbits. The 2000 season was the Covid Year, and the 2021 season was his redshirt year. As a result, Lane still has two years of eligibility remaining.

Around a week-and-a-half ago, Lane committed to Michigan St., but then he decommitted from the Spartans on May 2nd.

I don’t think Michigan St. is necessarily off the table, and he has visited Washington and West Virginia.
