Former NC State WR KC Concepcion is Down to 6 Schools

Former NC State Wide Receiver Kevin Concepcion is down to 6 schools according to ON3.

The six schools are Alabama, Texas A&M, South Carolina, FSU, Colorado and Miami.

Concepcion started an Official Visit at Alabama today, and he is scheduled to take one with Texas A&M on Tuesday and Wednesday next week.

On December 1st, news broke that KC was entering the Portal, looking for a new home to play his final two years of eligibility.

As a Freshman, KC earned 2nd Team All-ACC honors (All-Purpose), and was named the ACC Rookie of the Year and the ACC Offensive Rookie of the Year. He also earned First Team Freshman All-American honors from The Athletic. In his first season, Concepcion set the NC State freshman record for receiving TDs (10) and receptions (71). His 71 catches are the sixth-best single season mark in NC State history. KC’s 839 receiving yards last season were the 2nd most in school history by a Freshman. His 10 touchdown receptions in 2023 were the fifth most by a Wolfpack player in a single season.

Year 2 wasn’t so good for Concepcion. He finished the regular season this year with 53 receptions for 460 yards and 6 touchdowns. It’s not as if NC State didn’t try to feature him this season. He had 35 more receiving targets than any other player on the team.

Concepcion’s 16 career touchdown receptions at NC State are tied for the 9th most in school history. His 124 receptions rank 15th in Wolfpack history. KC’s average of 5.0 receptions per game ranks 2nd in school history.

Concepcion is the 1 of 10 NC State players to enter the Transfer Portal this year.
