MAY 2017 ■ 49 WOLFPACK FOOTBALL The redshirt sophomore was a four-star recruit from Princeton (N.C.) High who switched his verbal commitment from Florida State to NC State a month before National Signing Day. He also rejected overtures from Alabama, even after Tide head coach Nick Saban made the trip to Princeton to personally recruit him. Frasier though fell behind in his condi- tioning when he arrived at NC State and redshirted in the fall of 2015. He ran 18 times for 64 yards and a touchdown in six games during his rookie season before be- ing shut down due to a shoulder injury that required surgery. Also leaving the team were a pair of fifth-year seniors for different reasons. Cornerback Sean Paul has left with a medi- cal hardship. The Vero Beach (Fla.) High product was one of head coach Dave Do- eren's first commitments after taking the job in December 2012. Tight end Pharoah McKever, who is gradauting in May, will depart as a grad transfer.
