NC State’s Depth Chart vs. Louisville (with notes)

Published

on

NC State released their depth chart for the Louisville game today at Dave Doeren’s weekly press conference.

Quite a few young players have popped up on the depth chart for the 1st time.

  • Redshirt Freshman Xavier Lyas is the third string defensive end behind Senior Darian Roseboro and Graduate Junior Deonte Holden. Lyas played in his first game of the season against Florida State, picking up 2 sacks in 23 snaps. He didn’t play at all against Wake Forest.
  • Redshirt Sophomore Val Martin is the third string Nose Guard behind Senior Eurndraus Bryant and Redshirt Sophomore Shug Frazier. Martin has yet to play a snap in 2018. Frazier returned this week after missing FSU, but Bryant missed his 2nd straight game.
  • Freshman De’Von Graves started the season as a cornerback, but has been moved to Strong Safety, recording 1 tackle against Wake Forest. He is the 3rd string Strong Safety behind Redshirt Junior Jarius Morehead and Redshirt Sophomore Isaiah Stallings. He has played 3 games strictly on special teams, and saw game snaps against Wake Forest, picking up his first tackle.
  • Freshman Tyler Baker-Williams has moved back to safety, and is third string behind Redshirt Senior Dexter Wright and Junior Tim Kidd-Glass. Baker-Williams was moved to running back at the start of the season due to injuries, and had one carry in the season opener versus James Madison, and unfortunately fumbled it. He didn’t see action the next 5 games, but has played special teams the past three weeks.

NC State offered Stephen F. Austin (FCS) Transfer Defensive Tackle Brandon Lane (6’3″/300) yesterday.

Lane started in 6 of the 11 games he played in for Stephen F. Austin this past season. He finished the year with 44 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks. His PFF Grade was 74.6, which ranked 4th on the Lumberjacks Defense. His 79.9 Run Defense Grade ranked 3rd on the team. In 2022, Lane played 7 games as a reserve for Stephen F. Austin, recording 11 tackles 2.5 tackles for loss and 1 sack.

Lane spent his first two collegiate seasons at South Dakota State (2000-21). In 2000, he played in 1 game. In 2021, he played in 3 games as a reserve for the Jackrabbits. The 2000 season was the Covid Year, and the 2021 season was his redshirt year. As a result, Lane still has two years of eligibility remaining.

Around a week-and-a-half ago, Lane committed to Michigan St., but then he decommitted from the Spartans on May 2nd.

I don’t think Michigan St. is necessarily off the table, and he has visited Washington and West Virginia.
