The 5-foot-11, 161-pound playmaker out of Ardrey Kell High School in Charlotte announced he would be running with the Wolfpack today, after a recent Official Visit to Raleigh.

Rodriguez becomes another in-state addition for Dave Doeren and his staff as NC State continues to prioritize top North Carolina talent in the 2027 cycle.

NC State extended an offer on June 9 after Rodriguez impressed the coaching staff during a camp appearance in Raleigh the previous weekend.

Rodriguez committed to the Wolfpack before taking a previously scheduled Official Visit to Marshall this weekend.
