NC State adds commitments from 4-star TE Javonte Vereen, walk-on WR Ashton Locklear

NC State had a good weekend on the recruiting trail, beginning with the commitment of in-state tight end Javonte Vereen on Friday. Vereen, who is a consensus four-star prospect in the 2023 class, chose NC State over Maryland and Louisville.

He’s ranked in the top 350 nationally, and is one of the 10 best players in North Carolina. In his junior season, he caught 39 passes for 1,050 yards and 15 touchdowns. That’s a pretty good touchdown-to-catch ratio! Dude seems like a pretty talented guy, maybe we should look into seeing if he wants to play on the NC State football t—oh, right, right.
