Wake Forest High School linebacker Darius Hodge has committed to Marshall instead of N.C. State.
Wake Forest athletics tweeted a picture of Hodge, wearing a Marshall hat and sweatshirt, Wednesday afternoon, after he signed his letter of intent.
Hodge had been an N.C. State commit since 2016.

Hodge said in a text message Monday that he’d have to go to a junior college to bring up his grades before being able to play for the Wolfpack.
