We are Entering Flip Season

Published

on

It’s that time of year when you start seeing players flip their commitment. About a week ago, NC State flipped 3-Star Wide Receiver Christian Zachary from being a UVA commitment, to a Wolfpack commitment.

What future flips are on the horizon for NC State?

Well, this past weekend, NC State hosted Ben Black, who is currently a verbal commit to Rutgers. As expected, Black walked away with an offer. The Wolfpack offered him as a Cornerback, not a Wide Receiver. Black is a 3-star prospect out of Mallard Creek in Charlotte, North Carolina. He committed to Rutgers on June 11th.

Also, 4-Star Running Back Anthony Carrie committed to Michigan State on June 24th, but that didn’t deter NC State from offering him on September 21st. Carrie has set an Official Visit to NC State on November 4th, and is being heavily recruited by NC State Nose Tackle Brandon Cleveland, who is his former High School teammate.

On the negative side of flip season, without fail, a player or two will inevitably flip their commitment away from the Wolfpack. Keep your eye on 4-Star Wide Receiver Terrell Anderson. Anderson verbally committed to NC State on August 12th. With that being said, Anderson took an Unofficial Visit to Georgia this past weekend. Georgia lost out on 4-Star Ny Carr, who recently committed to Miami, so it looks like they have turned their attention to Anderson. Tennessee and Michigan were the other teams in Anderson’s Top-3 besides NC State, but Georgia offered last month. Michael Clark, NC State recruiting analyst for 247Sports, has already submitted a Crystal Ball prediction that Anderson will flip to Georgia…that’s not good.
