Two Former NC State Players Find Their New Schools

Today two former NC State football players who recently hit the Transfer Portal announced they had found their new schools.

Wide Receiver Porter Rooks announced that he will be playing his final year of eligibility at Eastern Michigan.

Rooks was a consensus 4-star prospect in the Wolfpack’s 2020 recruiting class, out of Charlotte, North Carolina. ESPN ranked Rooks as the #193 overall player nationally in 2020.

Over 4 seasons, Rooks caught 79 balls for 891 yards and a touchdown in 49 games. In 2023, Rooks had a career low 13 receptions. In his first two seasons, he had 200+ yards receiving, but failed to match that the past two seasons.
