The latest “PackPlus” newsletter can be found by clicking here.
“PackPlus” is an internal newsletter done by the NC State Athletics administration for the athletics and academics community on campus. Wolfpack Club Reps used to receive them in the mail (and I suspect that they still do).
“Coach Fowler” usually writes a propaganda piece extolling how wonderful things are within his Athletics Department that has won fewer Atlantic Coast Conference Championships during his tenure than any other program within the ACC. He even signs the column with his own signature so that you know that it is coming from him.
Unfortunately, “Lee” serves to put some real egg on his face in this issue’s column. Note how “Lee” spells the name of NC State Head Basketball Coach, SIDNEY Lowe.
* Coach Sydney Lowe had an outstanding first season leading the Pack to 20 wins and the NIT.
* Coaches Sydney Lowe and Tom O’Brien…
In the ^column Fowler writes, he spells Sidney “Sydney” not once, but twice. Everywhere else in the article (columns Fowler doesn’t write), Coach Lowe’s first name is spelled correctly.
Are you really surprised? Some might argue that a true leader should know how to spell the two-syllable name of coach whose checks he signs and total almost a million dollars per year.
