While Pack fans were busy watching the new look Wolfpack dismantle UAB on Friday night, 5-star Deron Rippey Jr was sitting court side on his official visit. While he was down there, NC State legend DJ Burns stopped by to chat him up. 247 reporter Charlie Gribble caught the interaction and posted it to X.
Our coaches are great recruiters, but a legend who has been to NC State and found success at NC State offers a perspective they can’t. Burns has now been in attendance at both of the Pack’s first two games.
