Quote of the day
NC State men’s basketball is in pursuit of top-100 guard Jackson Keith, and he was appreciative by schools putting a priority on him instead of filling that need in the transfer portal with an experienced collegiate player.
“They might not try and act like it’s a big deal, but I think it’s a big deal,” Keith said of college coaches. “If you can always go out there and get a 23-year-old and you’re still recruiting a 17-year-old kid, that makes you feel special, for sure.”
