After cancelling last week’s visit to Stanford, Amile Jefferson is set to visit NC State this weekend.
At 6’7 and 185 pounds, Jefferson is one of the five highest ranked power forwards and one of the Top 20 ranked basketball players in the class of 2012. Although slightly (currently) undersized for a power forward, Jefferson has an unusually long wing span (think John Henson) to go with a competitive reputation of tenacity. He is has versatile athletic traits like speed and good hands to go with his offensive mindset and good form and touch his shot.
If the State were to land a commitment from Jefferson in the near future, it would be very hard to keep the Wolfpack’s class from being ranked the #1 recruiting class in the country. Additionally, if Coach Gottfried ultimately were to land both Jefferson and a pure center then the class would form a true ‘Fab Five’ with a player at every position on the court.
