Doyle decommits from N.C. State
Catholic Memorial quarterback A.J. Doyle will not attend North Carolina State after verbally committing because the Wolfpack wanted him to play linebacker.
A.J. really wants an opportunity to be a college quarterback, said Catholic Memorial coach Alex Campea. He certainly can compete at that level. N.C. State offered him a tremendous opportunity, he has great respect for their school and their program, but the reality is he wants a shot to be a quarterback for a Division 1 school.
The three-year starter and all conference player will consider all his options.
Hes not making the decision today or tomorrow, Campea said.
