NC State lands three-star DL Nick Booker-Brown
NC State football does not often recruit the state of Texas, but it dipped into the Lone Star State to land a verbal commitment Sunday afternoon from three-star defensive lineman Nick Booker-Brown of Westfield High in Houston.
Booker-Brown announced his decision at the conclusion of his official visit to NC State this weekend.
The three-star prospect had been a commitment to Boise State, but earlier this week he backed out of the pledge he had made to the Broncos on Oct. 6. Booker-Brown’s older brother Josh is a linebacker at Boise State.
Booker-Brown also had offers from Colorado, Houston, Kansas State, Memphis, Rutgers and Virginia Tech, among others. The 6-foot-4, 275-pounder helped Westfield go 13-2 this past season and reach the semifinals of the 6A Division 2 state playoffs.
He was named second-team All-Greater Houston Area by the Houston Chronicle. He becomes NC State's 20th commitment in the 2020 class and the second pledge in the post-early signing period, joining three-star offensive lineman Anthony Carter from Butler High in Matthews, N.C.
The Wolfpacker will have more from Booker-Brown’s commitment.
