NC State Football Earns Transfer Wins on Consecutive Days
Four of the 2024 NC State football team's five starters on the offensive line won't be in Raleigh next season. So, it's no surprise that Wolfpack head coach Dave Doeren and his staff have prioritized experienced 300-pounders in their transfer portal pursuits.

This week, the Wolfpack's efforts have paid off to the tune of pledges on back-to-back days.
On Wednesday, after Utah State three-star offensive tackle Teague Andersen announced his NC State football pledge on Tuesday, North Carolina A&T offensive guard/center Brock Stukes joined the club. He checked out the Wolfpack in person via an unofficial visit on Tuesday.
Stukes, unrated as a transfer prospect, is a 6-foot-3, 310-pounder out of Oscar Smith High School in Chesapeake, Va., with two years of college eligibility remaining, not to mention still having the option to redshirt. He was also unrated as a prep.
