Pharoah McKever made some of the biggest plays for N.C. State’s football team during Dave Doeren’s tenure.
The 6-6 senior tight end from Tabor City would like a chance to make more, so he’ll transfer for his final season.
McKever will graduate from N.C. State next month and play elsewhere for the 2017 season, the school announced. He has been released by N.C. State to transfer to any school that does not play the Wolfpack this season. As a graduate transfer, he is eligible under NCAA rules to play without sitting out a season.
“I just want to thank Coach Doeren, the staff, my teammates and Wolfpack Nation for four memorable years,” McKever said in a statement released by the school.
