This is an interesting, if not too long, look at Scooter Sherrill, both before and after his NC State career. It’s easy to forget how hyped he was coming in to State. He never really had the impact everyone thought he would, although he was a solid player.
Scooter sounds more than a bit disappointed in how his career went and implies that things didn’t go as promised during recruiting. He does say that if he had to do it all over again, he’d “probably still come to NC State.”
It’s interesting. Herb Sendek and State seemed to have turned the corner, but lots of players come out of that program unhappy. Many transfer, and some, like Sherrill and Josh Powell, leave without glowing reviews. You have to think that these stories hurt recruiting. So far, Herb has overcome it. I wonder how long that will continue?
