We want to be extremely cautious about positioning this without any misunderstaning. This entry is designed to share a RUMOR that SFN has NOT yet completely confirmed. But, SFN has been informed by multiple sources in the last ten days that NC State’s Andrew Brackman will forego basketball this season to focus exclusively on his […]
Suiter: State Fans Care More About Football Than Tarheels
Tom Suiter threw up a summertime blog entry at WRAL.com this afternoon. (Link) There is nothing in it of much note, but we liked this (obvious) comment very much: Is it me or does State care more about football than Carolina?
Jacobs on Sidney, Sendek
The strategy of pacing ourselves and holding off on blitzing the site in May with all of the Sidney-Lowe articles has worked out well for us. Our discussion on “Lowe is Ready For This” went very nicely. Today we have another article to quickly re-address as we go back to a piece written by Barry […]
Quote: Sidney’s Been There
“Sidney’s been there. He remembers the glory. He knows we hate Carolina. We hate Duke. Back then it was a rivalry. It wasn’t a nice friendly game. If we came back to campus and we had lost to North Carolina, man, it was dark on campus. And if we beat them, it was like a […]
Quick Thursday BBall (Updated 4:50pm)
* First, don’t overlook this recent entry on Larry Davis’s signing or this one on Anthony McClain (with links to other recruiting articles). * Speaking of recruiting…have any of our readers ever heard of a power forward named Tirell Baines? He is supposedly 6-7, 235 pounds with a 44-inch vertical jump and is reportedly being […]
Davis Inks with Seton Hall
He finally got his wish. After some bumpy roads, former NC State recruit and signee Larry Davis has signed with Bobby Gonzalez’s Seton Hall Pirates. For a little bit of fun, we thought that we would highlight this blog entry that discusses provision #19 in the National Letter of Intent that high school recruits, including […]
NasCarl’s Descent
^Tell us more about how “mean” NC State fans are? Surely Dennis Franchione couldn’t find a coach to fill the Defensive Coordinator’s job at Texas A&M after the way Torbush was treated in College Station. (sarcasm) [A&M Fans even had a FireTorbush.com website.] What a tumble from inheriting the head coaching job of an ACC […]
Grant’s Hearing Postponed
Gavin Grant’s immigration hearing has been postponed again. (Link) We don’t expect this to ever really be an issue…but, we can’t completely ignore it.
New Big Men Arise; McClain Note
In this entry from a couple of weeks ago, we set the table for some recruiting conversations here on SFN. We discussed how, in addition to point guard (see Chris Wright & Jamelle McMillan), that post players are a very important piece of NC State’s 2007 recruiting initiatives. In the piece, we highlighted JJ Hickson […]
More FBall Schedule Talk
We have a little quasi-schedule conversation going on at this link that stems from an entry we had this weekend. It’s not a huge conversation, and certainly doesn’t compare to our “master entry” regarding State’s 2006 Football Schedule that can be found by clicking here. Relatedly, Bruce Feldman at ESPN Insider has blogged an entry […]
