3-Star RB Kyron Jones Taking Official Visit to NC State In a Couple of Weeks

Published

2 years ago

on

3-Star 2023 Running Back Kyron Jones (6’0″/190) will be taking an Official Visit to NC State on September 17th. Jones plays for Charlotte Christian (Charlotte, NC), and the Official Visit to Raleigh will be his 2nd, after taking his first to UCONN this past weekend.

NC State was one of the first schools to offer Jones a scholarship, but they liked what they saw back in June at their camp, and extended an offer right then and there on June 12th.

247Sports ranks Jones as a 3-star prospect, and the #16 overall player in the state of North Carolina in the 2023 recruiting class, but he is unranked and unrated by Rivals, ON3 and ESPN.

The other syndicates might wake up and smell the coffee after the way Jones has started his Senior season at Charlotte Christian.

Through 3 games thus far, Jones has rushed for 527 yards and 5 touchdowns, and also has 5 receptions for 43 yards and another touchdown. Jones rushed for 276 yards this past weekend, and is averaging a laughable 17.0 yards per carry through 3 contests.

Check out Jones highlights from his past two games, running for 200+ yards in each.

Cuthbertson – 11 carries, 276 yards, 3 touchdowns/2 receptions, 23 yards, 1 touchdown

Southside Christian – 13 carries, 206 yards, 1 touchdown/2 receptions, 11 yards

Jones also holds offers from Iowa State, Duke, UCONN and others.

4-Star 2025 Safety Jontae Gilbert (6’1″/180) confirmed with me that he has locked in an Official Visit to NC State for the weekend of September 27-29, and he plans for it to be his last Official Visit.

Back in July of 2022, Gilbert committed to Ohio St., but last July he decommitted from the Buckeyes.

Gilbert also has Official Visits scheduled for UCF, South Carolina and USC.

At one point, Gilbert was a 5-star prospect, but now he is a consensus 4-star prospect, and a consensus Top-275 player. Rivals ranks him as the #70 overall player nationally in the 2025 recruiting class, and the #8 player in the state of Georgia.

NC State offered Gilbert in April of last year.

Recently, he has taken unofficial visits to, or been visited by Louisville, Auburn, Tennessee, Georgia St., Oregon, Clemson, Texas and South Carolina.

While he doesn’t have an Official Visit set up with Georgia, the Bulldogs are obviously a big player in Gilbert’s recruitment.

Gilbert plays for Douglass High School in Atlanta, Georgia.

According to a source, 2025 3-Star Edge Nik Alston (6’3″/260) has locked in an Official Visit to NC State for June 7-9.

Alston plays for Thompson High School in Birmingham, Alabama, and is ranked as the #40 overall player in the state in the 2025 class according to 247Sports.

Back on April 6th, Alston was in attendance for NC State’s 2024 Spring Game, and he walked away with an offer. He also holds offers from Minnesota, Washington, Liberty, Georgia Tech and Tulane.

He also has Official Visits scheduled for Washington, Minnesota, Liberty and Tulane. Honestly, some of the dates that I have found overlap at this point, but these were all reported at one time.

This past season, Alston had 37 tackles, 4 tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, 2 forced fumbles and 2 fumble recoveries.

When I spoke with Alston in the past, he said NC State would be at the top of his list.
