WATCH: NC State’s newest addition, Casey Morsell, was a 4-star scoring machine in high school

Published

on

There is no doubt that people are going to judge Casey Morsell on his stats at Virginia. They’re going to doubt the pickup by Keatts and point to his 26% 3 point % from last year, or the fact that he shot even worse as a freshman. But Morsell is far from a poor shooter, in fact that was one of his strengths coming into college for UVA. In fact, Brian Snow (recruiting analyst) from 24/7 said this in his scouting report…

“Tough player who can really score. Good going to the rim and shooting from the mid-range. Long-range jumper continues to improve.”

Does Snow not know what he’s talking about? You be the judge, but it looks to us like Morsell has found himself in a funk over his UVA career. A change of scenery may bring back the budding star everybody saw in high school…

Published

The new Men’s College Basketball AP Poll is out, and NC State is right outside of the Top-25, sitting at 29th heading into the 1st round of the 2024 NCAA Tournament. The Wolfpack will be playing Texas Tech in the 1st round on Thursday night at 9:40, and the Red Raiders moved up 3 spots in this poll to #22.

ACC Teams in the AP Poll

5. UNC
13. Duke
29. NC State

It is interesting that NC State is the 3rd highest ranked team in the AP Poll, but are the lowest seed of any ACC team in the NCAA Tournament.

With a good showing in the NCAA Tournament, the Wolfpack could find themselves in the Final AP Top-25 for the first time since 2003-04, when they finished 15th. NC State has been ranked in the Final AP Top-25 seventeen times.
