11 A.M. — H.D. Woodson Turning into N.C. State Pipeline

Josh Barr's Recruiting Insider, H.D. Woodson is turning into a girls basketball pipeline to N.C. State.

Look, Kay Yow is a Hall of Fame coach. And an even better person, especially with how she's rebounded from cancer. But the Wolfpack have one of the ugliest campuses known to man. And Reynolds Coliseum, while it has certain history (being the former home of the men's team), is not exactly a state-of-the-art facility. So why is EVERYONE from H.D. Woodson migrating south?

Consider: "Tia Bell will be a sophomore there this year, while rising senior center Jeniece Johnson committed last fall. Now, the Wolfpack have also received committments from Woodson's rising senior guards Bernisha Pinkett and Carleeda Green, according to Warriors Coach Frank Oliver." And then they may snag junior guard Ronika Ransford.

Maybe with the gas prices with the way they are, the Wolfpack can only afford to go to one high school. Or maybe, that's all they need.
