I had read a while back where Mabry was offered a basketabll scholarship to NCSU but I have not heard if he accepted. Is that true? Are there any other schools recruiting him? Where does he statnd on a state and national level from a "ranking" standpoint? Thanks for any insight.
Reportedly, Mabry has received offers from N.C. State, Wake Forest, Clemson and Xavier. He has not accepted any offers as of yet, but he's just a junior and he has plenty of time to weigh his options. Most don't commit until November of their senior season.
