Former NC State Wide Receiver Julian Gray has committed to play for Liberty next year.
This past season, Gray had career highs in receptions (16) and receiving yards (170). He ranked 4th on the team in receptions, and 7th on the team in receiving yards.
Gray has served as NC State’s primary Kickoff Returner the past two seasons, averaging 24.9 yards per return. This past year, he averaged 26.0 yards per carry, which ranked 3rd in the ACC, and 11th nationally. It stands as the 5th best single-season average in school history.
Back in 2021, ON3 ranked Gray as a 4-star prospect, the #197 overall player nationally, and the #13 player in the state of North Carolina.
Gray has 2 more years of eligibility remaining.
Rookie of week was obvious choice, two weeks in a row on a mid season start is pretty impressive. Wake’s secondary is one of the weakest in the league, so we’ll see if he can continue to stretch the field or if Beck backs him off a bit. I hope he lets it fly, only good things come from an aggressive offense. More likely to get a PI call than a pick.
Moore was a monster. (One more home game, btw)
