Published

on

NC State released their depth chart yesterday for their matchup against Duke this weekend. The Depth Chart is below, with notes below.

Notes

  • Freshman Patrick Matan is listed as Graduate Left Tackle Tyrone Riley, with Redshirt Freshman Timothy McKay down with an injury. Matan hasn’t seen the field yet in 2020.
  • Redshirt Freshman Dylan McMahon is listed as the backup at both Right and Left Guard, whereas last week he was only listed at Left Guard. McMahon played 30 snaps against UVA, which were his 1st snaps of the season.
  • Redshirt Junior Right Tackle Justin Witt was listed as the starter last week, but didn’t play against UVA. He’s not on the Depth Chart this week, and Redshirt Junior Bryson Speas will start again in his place for the 3rd straight week.
    • Redshirt Sophomore Derrick Eason isn’t on the Depth Chart at Right Tackle this week, with Redshirt Sophomore Zovon Lindsay moving up to 2nd string.
  • Redshirt Junior Max Fisher has moved from Wide Receiver to Safety.
  • Redshirt Freshman Terrell Dawkins is now the starter at Left Defensive End.
    • Redshirt Senior Val Martin returned to the field for the first time in 2020 against UVA, and is listed as Dawkins’ backup.
    • Graduate Daniel Joseph started the first two games of the season, but Dawkins started game 3, and Joseph didn’t play against UVA. Joseph is listed as the 3rd string Left End.
  • There is still an “OR” in between Redshirt Junior Ibrahim Kante and Sophomore Savion Jackson, but this week Kante’s name is listed above Jackson. Kante has started the past two games.
  • Junior Nickel Tyler Baker-Williams is back in his starting spot after missing the past two games due to contact tracing.

NC State Offers FCS DT Brandon Lane

Published

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.

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

Published

on

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
