Two months ago, North Carolina Central was still searching for a head coach. But signing day waits for no man, and new NCCU coach Jerry Mack obviously knew this. He basically had just one month to put a class together, which isn’t easy.
The signees are still rolling in, but at first glance he obviously has put together a rather broad network fairly quickly. There are some local kids from Raleigh and Durham, as well as some recruits from rural spots in the middle of the state like Statesville and Salisbury. We’ll be adding to the list as we go along, so be sure to check back.
