    Packed recruiting intel: NC State ramps up interest in emerging ’25 tackle

    NC State football landed its two top priority offensive linemen in the 2025 class earlier this summer, but the staff would like to secure a commitment from one more prospect before completing the cycle. The Wolfpack is quickly ramping up its interest in Daniel Pierre Louis .

    Offensive line coach Garett Tujague began showing interest in the Loxahatchee (Fla.) Seminole Ridge High tackle recently. Pierre Louis’ recruitment took off this month, and now the Pack is trying to enter the mix.

    He picked up his first Power Four offer from Florida State July 16. West Virginia and Vanderbilt followed within the next couple of weeks. NC State could be the next school to join his offer list.

    The Pack has not extended a scholarship yet, but that should change soon based on the buzz behind the scenes of his recruitment. NC State’s staff has maintained communication with the class of 2025 prospect, and there’s definitely mutual interest here.

    Pierre Louis is focused on building a relationship with Tujague. He has been speaking with the staff for a little while now, and he has his eyes on a trip to Raleigh in the future.

    “Hopefully sometime soon i can visit them,” Pierre Louis told TheWolfpacker.com .

    Standing 6-4, 290 pounds, the lineman is unranked by the major recruiting services, but that should change soon after he picked up a surge of Power Four interest before his senior year. Pierre Louis recently told On3’s Warchant.com shortly after picking up his offer that Florida State, Memphis and Georgia State were the schools standing out to him at that time. He plans on officially visiting the Seminoles this fall.

    The emerging tackle only has stats for three games from last season listed on his MaxPreps page but, over those contests, he recorded 13 pancake blocks and also made two solo tackles defensively.

    NC State holds two offensive line commits from three-star prospects Isaac Sowells Jr ., a center for the Wolfpack, and Michael Gibbs , who will play tackle but also has the versatility to kick inside to guard if needed. The program’s 2025 class ranks No. 42 nationally and No. 9 in the ACC.
