-Words can’t describe what those of us fortunate enough to see just experienced. Down 18 points with about 11 minutes left in the game, the Pack staged what I think was a 28-2 run(sorry if I am off by a point or two) to beat Texas. This is exactly the type of run teams have […]

Pack to battle Texas tonight @ 6:30pm
Unfortunately, another exciting hoops game won’t be televised and will only be available to folks with ESPN3. Please post pre game conversation and any previews that you want to share in this entry. Of course, there is conversation about you know who going on here. But, of more interest to me is discussion of Scott […]
Sunday Links
Well, that was fun. It was one of those perfect North Carolina November days, the atmosphere inside Carter-Finley was great, and that team we saw could’ve competed with anyone in the nation yesterday. But it was also mind-numbingly frustrating after last week’s trip to Chestnut Hill. Where on earth has yesterday’s team been? Yesterday’s win […]
DeShawn Delivering
The new basketball season has already delivered a lot of interesting changes and topics for discussion. One of the biggest story lines that has developed in the early season is the fantastic play of NC State junior center, DeShawn Painter. The following blog entry from the Fayetteville Observer is great reading today: If you attended […]
Princeton – Gottfried can start ‘taking it back’ for the Pack

NC State, the Rejected Stone
So I have a personal blog called “RejectedStones” that is primarily a Christian devotional site. On Twitter I received a few messages from Alex Johnson who has been a supporter of my site since before he arrived in Raleigh. Naturally, this got me thinking about both my blog and our basketball team. Something then dawned […]
ACC Basketball Predictions
An evolving theme on our message forums over the last couple of weeks has been the notion that this NC State Basketball team may be better positioned for a Top 5 finish in the Atlantic Coast Conference and a position on the proverbial NCAA Tournament bubble than was previously thought. Last Friday, we posted these […]

King’s Court – Basketball Begins
I ran across this little preseason blog entry this morning that I wanted to share. It’s not too special, just a little primer on the college basketball season as we head into the first weekend of games. Specifically of interest to the Wolfpack in the entry was the following: Three bold predictions 1. Two Kentucky […]

In case you missed it, we had some great conversation about both the Red-White Basketball game and the exhibition with Flagler on Monday night in this thread. If you want some educated eye-witness accounts of the events then you should check it out. Additionally, the following video was put together from the Red-White game that […]
