The ACC and the Atlantic 10 To Play A “Challenge” In Brooklyn…But It’s Only a Doubleheader
The ACC and Atlantic 10 conferences are planning to start the “ACC – Atlantic 10 Challenge” this December: The ACC announced the doubleheader in a release last Spring, but the specifics of the event will include games between two Atlantic 10 programs and two ACC programs. There will be one doubleheader per year each December […]
State Firmly Ranked in “Ridiculously Early” 2015/16 Top 25 Hoops Polls
Expectations are going up — way up — for Wolfpack hoops next season. It seems as soon as the last notes of “One Shining Moment” are played in the NCAA Tournament, pundits start releasing their “way too early” polls for next season. Usually, the top of their lists features blue-blood programs and others that have […]

2014-15 Basketball – A Note of Thanks
Before I sink back into my natural state of deep wolven depression, I wanted to express my sincere thanks to the players and coaches who made the wild ride of this past season possible. It came with its bumps and bruises, fits and starts, but perhaps most importantly for a program that had staggered blindly in the wilderness for so very long – we learned how to love again.

Sweet 16 – Pack vs. Louisville!
It feels like the ’80’s … Go! Go! Go!
Operation Destroy the Narrative
Comrades! As part of Glorious Revolution, it has come to our attention that the filthy dogs of the Western media have been spreading slanderous lies to discredit Commandant Gottfried and our Red brethren from the Oklahoma Oblast. Seems as if they have already written their Sunday columns about Michigan State and Louisville, as if Friday’s games need not be played. This is wrong, da?
Yes, Tomorrow Is Very Important
No doubt, you’ve heard the concept of “house money” applied to the 2014-15 Wolfpack. Although the players aren’t just “happy to be here (in the Sweet Sixteen)” there is a consistent undercurrent in the media that State made its bones by knocking off Villanova and can now run along while the big boys finish their apéritifs.

Penn Live Sports Columnist David Jones must live under a bridge somewhere on the Susquehanna River. He’s certainly a troll nonpareil with his latest column, and one that comes across as nothing more than a bitter screed by a sore loser: NCAA tournament: Louisville-NC State could pass for an NIT semifinal Jones starts by hurling […]
