GREENSBORO -- Alonzo Lee lived out of a suitcase in the final four days leading up to national signing day.
He drove to Clinton, Md. From there, he drove to Fayetteville. From there, he drove to Chester, S.C. From there, he drove to Atlanta. From there he drove back to Greensboro.
Just in time to catch a flight to Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
All those miles were worth it: Those final face-to-face meetings helped Lee get all four of the offensive linemen he coveted for his second recruiting class at N.C. A&T.
"We had a few guys that were back-and-forth, that we had to battle with (other schools) until the last minute," Lee said. "Some we got. Some we didn't. But, really, out of the guys we wanted, we got 18 of the 20. And that is phenomenal."
