NC State football signing day primer: Who is that guy, and why does the Wolfpack want him?

NC State has 19 commitments in its 2016 recruiting class, but has a few more spots to fill between now and National Signing Day on Feb. 3. Matt mentioned a handful of targets in his most recent recruiting update, so here's a bit more information on those kids.

Kelvin Harmon -- Harmon is a consensus three-star wide receiver recruit who stands 6'3. NC State could use a lot of help at wide receiver, and it could especially use some height. Harmon fills the latter requirement and could play early. He had 1,111 receiving yards on 66 catches as a high school senior

Nick McCloud -- Consensus three-star defensive back from Rock Hill, SC, who has offers from State, Vandy, and Georgia Tech, among others. The 6'1, 175-pound prospect visited NC State on Halloween, according to 247Sports. State is losing multiple players from its secondary and regardless could use added depth/competition there.

Carlos Becker -- Becker is a 6'2, 185-pound WR/ATH/CB prospect with blazing speed. The Florida native is a consensus four-star recruit and has offers from a lot of very good football schools. A whole lot. He would be useful somewhere, and probably immediately.

JJ Givens -- Givens is a 6-2, 174-pound athlete who could fill a number of different spots but is most likely being recruited at defensive back by NC State. His height makes him a great option at that position. The Mechanicsville, Va., native is a consensus three-star.

DeVontres Dukes -- He's listed at 6'4 and 203 pounds, and as a wide receiver, that makes him a prime target for NC State. There is a theme here, and if you've seen any of the last, oh--*checks watch*--last five seasons, you understand the problem.
