Sterling Dixon Commits to NC State Football

NC State football has successfully secured linebacker Sterling Dixon from Alabama, following his official visit to Raleigh. The 6-foot-3, 217-pound athlete, who played in three games for the Crimson Tide last season, entered the transfer portal seeking more opportunities. Dixon, a four-star prospect ranked No. 169 nationally, chose the Wolfpack over rival UNC, influenced by his relationship with NC State player Kelvon McBride, a fellow Alabaman. With four years of eligibility remaining after redshirting his freshman season, Dixon is expected to add depth to NC State's linebacker corps. This commitment enhances NC State's transfer haul, which ranks No. 52 nationally according to 247Sports. Dixon's athleticism and potential for development make him a promising addition to the Wolfpack's roster.
