This is a question that I, and I’m sure many of you, have been wondering about. The foundation of the NC State basketball program is no doubt in better shape than it’s been in quite a while, and it seems the Pack is poised to take that next step. But are some of the preseason […]
Roy Williams plays “Dodgeball” with Dan Kane
Dan Kane (N&O) got the opportunity to directly ask some pointed questions of UNC-CH head basketball coach Roy Williams on Thursday, at UNC-CH’s basketball media day. How the now infamous Mr. Kane was able to gain access to the affair I’m still not sure. The fact that he made it back off campus still breathing […]
Gottfried Now Living the Dream
When Mark Gottfried was introduced as the new head man for NC State Basketball eighteen months ago, it’s probably a fair statement that all of us who have followed the Wolfpack for any considerable length of time were at least slightly underwhelmed, even if we were guardedly optimistic. As Luke DeCock (N&O) reminds us today, […]
Academic Fraud Cesspool Deeper Than Previously Revealed
The N&O’s Dan Kane and J. Andrew Curliss have some new nuggets for us to ponder, some of which has been gleaned from some internal emails from academic/athletic support staff. Nothing groundbreaking as far as the what or where, mind you. But the scope of academic fraud at UNC-CH, not to mention the length of […]
Thorp, Kupec and Tyler’s Hot Mom: WTF?
We learn a little more this evening about the shake up which saw Matt Kupec and Tami Hansbrough lose their travel vouchers, and UNC-CH Chancellor Holden Thorp announce his intentions to get out while the getting was good. He might wish to re-think his spring/summer timeline because the N&O’s Dan Kane peels back another […]
RIP Lefty Freeman
Wolfpack Nation lost one of its biggest supporters over the weekend as Olney Ray “Lefty†Freeman passed away this past Saturday at the age of 98. Lefty was a pitcher for NC State Baseball in the mid 1930’s, long before “College†was replaced with “University†in the title. More than that however, he was a […]
AFAM Grads Shocked: “We worked hard”
Graduates of the AFAM Studies Department at the University* of North Carolina at Chapel Hill say they were surprised and disheartened to learn of the academic scandal involving the department. This according to the N&O’s Dan Kane. Seems Dan sat down recently and spoke with some people who actually had to do some work to […]
Thorp: We’ve learned our lesson…we promise
The N&O’s Dan Kane keeps the heat on, keeping the stench from southern Orange County in the public eye (or nose, as it were). Overnight he reported that UNC-CH Chancellor Holden Thorp appeared before the university faculty at the first Faculty Council meeting of the new academic year. Despite the fresh start of a new […]
Vote For Ms. Wuf (aka, Current Admin. Gets It)
I received this email (quoted below) from the athletics department a little while ago, and wanted to share it here. How cool is it that the current administration knows it’s fans so well such that they know we love us a good poll skewin’? Anyone think that the previous admin. would have ever lowered themselves […]
UNC-CH’s promises still ring hollow
The local media outlets today are reporting at least part of what was forged from yesterday’s double secret behind closed door meeting of the UNC System BOG panel. It’s hard to believe it took 5+ hours for this. I’m going to paste some quotes below, but please click the links and read both in their […]
