Published

on

2026 4-Star Quarterback Faizon Brandon (6’4″/175) confirmed with me that he will be taking an unofficial visit to NC State on March 29th.

ON3 ranks Brandon as the #1 Quarterback nationally in the 2026 recruiting class, and the #12 player overall. They also rank him as the #2 player in the state of North Carolina.

Brandon definitely has connections at NC State. True Freshman Wide Receiver Terrell Anderson, who was a 4-star Top-100 prospect as well, was one of Brandon’s top target at Grimsley (Greensboro, NC).

NC State was the third Division I school to offer Brandon, back on January 23rd of last year. He also holds offers from Georgia, Tennessee, Duke, Louisville, UNC, FSU, Boston College, West Virginia, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Michigan, LSU, Syracuse, Wisconsin and others.

The Wolfpack has had Brandon on campus on many occasions in the past.

As a Sophomore last year, Brandon threw for 3,026 yards (69%), 36 touchdowns and only 3 interceptions. He also rushed for 528 yards (6.2 yards per carry) and 9 touchdowns.
