NC State Snap Count: Offense: South Carolina

Published

7 years ago

on

Before we completely move on to Marshall, we wanted to take a detailed look at which NC State offensive players the coaches kept on the field the most against South Carolina.

Quarterback

Ryan Finley – 106 snaps – RS Junior Finley played every single snap at Quarterback for the Wolfpack

Running Back

There was an “OR” in between Juniors Nyheim Hines and Reggie Gallaspy, and it looks like it was justified.

Nyheim Hines – 53 snaps (52% of total offensive snaps)
Reggie Gallaspy – 48 snaps (47% of total offensive snaps)

Wide Receiver
While there is more depth at Wide Receiver this season, RS Junior Stephen Louis and Sophomore Kelvin Harmon barely left the field. Don’t expect that to change.

Stephen Louis – 95 snaps (92% of total offensive snaps)
Kelvin Harmon – 94 snaps (91%)
Jakobi Meyers – 47 snaps (46%)
Gavin Locklear – 19 snaps (18%)
C.J. Riley – 16 snaps (16%)
Emeka Emezie – 10 snaps (10%)

Offensive Line

Senior Tony Adams, RS Juniors Garrett Bradbury and Tyler Jones, and RS Freshman Justin Witt played every single offensive snap in the game. RS Junior Terronne Prescod was battling some injuries throughout Fall Camp, and as a result, his conditioning wasn’t at a level to handle a full game. Expect his number of snaps to increase against Marshall.

Tony Adams – 103 snaps (100%)
Garrett Bradbury – 103 snaps (100%)
Tyler Jones – 103 snaps (100%)
Justin Witt – 103 snaps (100%)
Terronne Prescod – 61 snaps 59%
Joe Sculthorpe – 47 snaps (46%)
Peter Daniel – 6 snaps (6%)

H-Back
Senior Jaylen Samuels played a career high 82 snaps (80%) against South Carolina. He was literally targeted in 22% of the plays in which he was in the game.

Tight End
Cole Cook isn’t targeted in the passing game much, but in the 1 snap that he was, he made it count for 29 yards.

Cole Cook – 55 snaps (53%)
Dylan Parham – 2 snaps
Dylan Autenrieth – 1 snap

Proposed Bill in the NC House Would Require NC State & UNC To Play One Another, as well as ECU, UNCC and App St.

A bill has been proposed by members of the North Carolina House of Representatives that would force NC State and UNC to play one another, as well as East Carolina, UNC Charlotte and Appalachian State.

According to House Bill 965, which you can read here in full, NC State and UNC would be required to play one another annually in Football, Men’s Basketball and Women’s Basketball. The Wolfpack and the Tar Heels would also be forced to play a game annually in all three sports against either ECU, UNC-Charlotte or App St. Every six years, NC State and UNC would be required to have played a home and away game against each of the three school in all three sports.

Here’s the exact wording from the proposed bill:

Competition Required. – A high-enrollment institution shall do all of the following in each eligible sport: (1) Every academic year, play at least one home or one away game against (i) another high-enrollment institution and (ii) an eligible constituent institution that is not a high-enrollment institution. (2) Every six academic years, play at least one home and one away game against each eligible constituent institution that is not a high-enrollment institution. A high-enrollment institution shall alternate home and away games that are scheduled against the same eligible constituent institution that is not a high-enrollment institution.

For glossary of terms being referenced above:

For the purposes of this bill, “High-enrollment institutions” = NC State and UNC, while “Eligible constituent institutions” = East Carolina, UNC Charlotte and Appalachian State.

It’s worth noting that NC State already has games schedule against each of these teams home-and-away in Football between now and 2031.

2025 – East Carolina (H)

2025 – @ App St.

2026 – App St. (H)

2028 – @ East Carolina

2030 – Charlotte (H)

2031 – @ Charlotte

Akron Safety Kerry Martin Jr. will Take an Official Visit at NC State Next Week

By

Akron Safety Kerry Martin Jr. (6’1″/195) confirmed with me that he will be taking an Official Visit to NC State next week beginning on May 7th.

After receiving an offer from NC State yesterday, it didn’t take him long to set up the visit.

Martin Jr. is 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.
