NC State Football Recruiting Update – October 18, 2018

New offer:

3* Dual-Threat QB Payton Thorne from Illinois. I broke down his film on the recruiting forum earlier this week. A very intriguing prospect who is putting up huge numbers and has enormous playmaking ability coupled with great athleticism.

More on Thorne:

Sophomore Season Stats (At Matea Valley HS): Passing – 94-155 for 1,325 yards with 14 TDs and 7 Interceptions, 48 carries for 160 yards with 2 Touchdowns

His father is the head football coach at North Central College.
