    Following Ben Middlebrooks announcing he is transferring to NC State Ben Middlebrooks had this to say!

    "I think that the way they play is a little bit more free-flowing than what it is at Clemson," Middlebrooks told Pack Pride. "A little bit less play-oriented and a little bit less controlled. I think it would fit me well. I feel like I'm — at least from my position and my size — able to get up and down very well. I think it would allow me to show some things that I wasn't necessarily able to show at Clemson."
