Published

on

This past weekend was the 2nd weekend of the 2023 high school football season. Check out how the Wolfpack verbal commits fared.

2024

4-Star Wide Receiver Jonathan Paylor rushed the ball 3 times for 104 yards and 3 touchdowns. All three of his carries were touchdowns. He also had 1 reception for 5 yards, which was also a touchdown.

4-Star Wide Receiver Terrell Anderson had 7 receptions for 71 yards. If High School football had instant replay, I’m pretty sure the highlight below would reveal an 8th reception for a touchdown.

4-Star Athlete Ronnie Royal had 7 carries for 62 yards and a touchdown. He also had 1 reception for 6 yards. On Defense, Royal had 1 tackle, which was a sack for a 15-yard loss.

4-Star Quarterback Cedrick Bailey was 20 of 25 for 236 yards with 4 touchdowns (1 interception).

3-Star Safety Brody Barnhardt had 14 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, 1 QB Hurries and 1 interception.

Here are 3-Star Defensive End Josh Alexander-Felton’s Highlights.

Last night NC State 2024 4-Star ATH verbal commit Ronnie Royal III snagged one of the best interceptions I’ve EVER seen in the Alabama 5A state championship game.

Royal’s Gulf Shores squad defeated Ramsay 21-14. On the other side of the ball, he finished with 22 carries for 188 yards and 2 touchdowns.

Heading into the game last night, Royal had 2,470 all-purpose yards on the year, with 884 rushing, 435 receiving, 606 on punt returns and 154 on kickoff returns. Prior to last night, he had 24 touchdowns on the season, with 15 rushing, 1 receiving, 4 on punt return, 2 on kickoff return and 2 interceptions returned for TD’s.

NC State is getting a gem.

Will NC State Be Able to Hold Onto 4-Star Quarterback Cedrick Bailey?

Ever since Miami offered NC State Quarterback commit Cedrick Bailey on November 19th, there has been a question mark surrounding his commitment to the Wolfpack. The 4-Star prospect lives 30 minutes or so from Miami. Two of his teammates are verbally committed to the Hurricanes: 4-Star WR Joshisa Trader and 4-Star ATH Zaquan Patterson.

Today, Bailey played in the state championship game, and his elite Chaminade squad blistered Clearwater 56-0. Bailey was 17 of 23 for 322 yards and 4 touchdowns.

Bailey still has an NC State logo on the back of his helmet, and Wolfpack head coach Dave Doeren was in attendance today on the sideline.

“It’s great to see to have my coach out here and he seeing me shining and winning,” said Bailey, who also wore an NC State decal on the back of his helmet. “It’s great to have Coach Doreen over here. I put on a show for him and those guys at N.C. State.” (Link)

There were also Miami coaches in attendance.

After the game, Bailey wouldn’t definitively say if his commitment was still solid with the Wolfpack.

“It’s kind of iffy right now,” said Bailey. “I think I have my mind set on what I want to do right now, so we’re going to see on signing day.” (Link)

Bailey’s Senior campaign has been outstanding, throwing for 47 touchdowns, and only 6 interceptions, completing 72% of his passes.

If the Wolfpack can hold onto him, they will be getting a good one.

Cards on the table…I like that he had the NC State logo on the back of his helmet…but I still don’t feel confident heading into signing day on December 20th.
