Baldwin lineback Corico Hawkins, a Clemson commit, may consider an official visit to N.C. State.
“N.C. State is recruiting him real hard,” Baldwin coach Jesse Hicks said. “He is still committed to Clemson and I don’t think he will visit N.C. State, but with the way this recruiting stuff works, you just never know.”
Hicks said Hawkins, a 6-foot, 220-pound member of the AJC’s The Georgia 150, has developed a rapport with N.C. State assistant coach Andy McCollum.
Although Hicks reiterated Hawkins’ strong commitment to Clemson.
“He knows the coaching situation is up in the air there, but he fell in love with the school,” he said. “He is trying to graduate early and get up to the Clemson-South Carolina game.”
Hawkins finished the 2008 regular season with 102 tackles, 16 for loss, three sacks and two interceptions. He was named the Region 3-AAA Player of the Year and now has his eyes on a state championship.
“Being named player of the year for the region is quite an accomplishment for a defensive player,” Hicks said. “They typically get overlooked.”
