NC State’s final official visit weekend continues to pay dividends. Mentor (Ohio) three-star offensive lineman Landry Brede committed to the Wolfpack on Wednesday afternoon.

The 6-foot-5, 275-pound tackle prospect picked NC State over Pitt and UNC, where he also took official visits. He also held offers from Cincinnati, Florida, Michigan State and Purdue among others.

Brede, which On3 has ranked as the No. 18 player in Ohio, can play at either guard or tackle at the college level. He’s a stout blocker that moves extremely well for a player his size, which allowed him to not give up a sack during his junior campaign.

The imposing offensive lineman took just one visit to NC State during his recruitment, which was last weekend’s official. The Wolfpack appears to have won him over on the trip, allowing NC State to overtake both Pitt and UNC for his pledge.

Brede is the second commitment to come from the Wolfpack’s most-recent official visit weekend. Kinston (N.C.) wide receiver Tyreek Copper made his decision during the weekend, and NC State hopes to continue that momentum moving forward.

Brede is the Wolfpack’s 11th commitment of the 2026 cycle. He joins Copper, Buford (Ga.) three-star running back Dylan McCoy, Richmond (Va.) Trinity Episcopal three-star tackle Brady Sakowitz and Pfafftown (N.C.) Reagan three-star quarterback Jacob Smith as offensive commitments.

NC State’s defensive commits, meanwhile, include Locust Grove (Ga.) Lulella three-star safety safety Markel Aguirre, Winter Park (Fla.) three-star cornerback Jordan Jackson, Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy three-star defensive lineman Carmelo McKenzie, Paramus (N.J.) Catholic three-star linebacker Jordan Moreta, Pittsburgh (Pa.) Woodland Hills linebacker Zykir Moore, Baltimore (Md.) Milford Mill Academy three-star safety Koby Sarkodie.
