PI EXCLUSIVE: 3-Star WR Jordan Allen is Looking to Get Closer to NC State’s Coaches Next Week

Published

on

3-Star 2025 Wide Receiver Jordan Allen (5’7″/170) confirmed with me that he will be taking an unofficial visit to NC State next week on March 22nd. Allen received an offer from NC State on January 27th of last year.

I caught up with Allen to get his take on the Wolfpack’s recruitment of him before his visit.

What did it mean to you to pick up an offer from NC State?

I felt very honored. NC State is a great program and I am very thankful they believed in me enough to offer me.

How many times have you visited NC State before, or is this the 1st time? What other schools have you visited, or have plans to visit? Do you have any Official Visits scheduled?

This will be my 1st time. I have previously visited UGA, UCF, UNC, Tennessee, Louisville, Auburn, Clemson and Duke for games last year. I plan to visit NC State (March 22), UGA (March 30), Indiana (April 6), Tennessee (April 13), Louisville (April 19). I do not have any officials set up yet.

What’s your relationship been like with NC State since they started recruiting you? How have they prioritized you? What’s their message to you?

I do not have much communication with the staff currently. That is why I scheduled this visit to build the relationships and get closer with the coaches. I was offered by Coach Doeren after my Sophomore year. Coach Stewart was the coach that reached out and sent the spring schedule.

Where does NC State currently stand in your recruitment? Who else stands out?

I consider NC State as a school I could see myself playing at. I am open to everything right now, still weighing everything out. There is no particular favorite at the moment.

_______

Allen holds offers from NC State, Clemson, Louisville, UCF, Tennessee, Florida, Michigan, Mississippi St., Maryland, Utah, Duke Indiana, Georgia Tech, Pitt, Kansas, Colorado and others.

Last season, Allen had 35 receptions for 588 yards and 2 touchdowns for Buford (Dacula, GA).
