According to a source of ours, Derek Funderburk 6’9”/205) , formerly of Ohio St, is flying in tonight for a visit to NC State.
Funderburk was a a 4-Star Power Forward prospect that committed to Ohio St as a member of the 2016 recruiting class. Scout ranked him as the #56 player in his class.
He was dismissed from Ohio St. this summer, after redshirting last season under Thad Matta. Funderburk was released for “failing to meet team expectations.”
As a result, Funderburk decided to transfer to Northwest Florida State College, which is a Junior College, so he could play right away.
