Oh the joy of Selection Sunday, when you know your name will be called. Is any day (well, other than Glorious May Day) sweeter? Mark Gottfried goes 4-4, which is a nice preamble to what could be an extremely special Year Five. And hell, this season has been pretty special in its own right, at […]

Are you ready to win a title? (Part I)
Everyone says their goal is to “Win It All Baby!!” but do they really have a team that can have their One Shining Moment? This will be a 3 Part Series taking a look at what all National Championship Teams have in common between 2002 and 2014. Is it talent level? What about the systems […]
Calling Dr. Heimlich – a study in Wolfpack basketball
If you think blown leads and huge deficits don’t anger fans then you haven’t been following the Pack this season. Just take a look at the fiascoes over the past couple of weeks if you don’t believe me. I don’t know about some of you but it sure does feel like State teams coached by […]
NC State Wolfpack Athletics: 2014 in Review
With a new year comes the New Year’s Day bowl games. Most specifically the nation was intrigued in watching Oregon thrash national champion Florida State and then Alabama getting upset by Ohio State. Now the day after, it is time to look back at the past year in Wolfpack Athletics. So much happened over the […]
A Thanksgiving Theory
My buddy texted me yesterday that he’s thankful for Twitter. Without Twitter, the rampant, chronic academic fraud and outright cheating over at The Flagship may still be rolling on, unexposed. Now, let’s have a little fun speculating. There’s a working theory we’ve formed over time: when NC State “broke the spirit, not the letter” of […]

Entitlement problem with high school basketball players
This is a great article from Dave Telep. I have a feeling Gott is facing some of these issues. When you recruit the McD AAs you have to be very good at managing egos. A few points Telep made. I asked the staffers at Elite 24 who’d been part of the game for the past […]
FourFourEightyThree: 30 Years Later, The Cougs Are Still Crying
Thirty years later, the images are still etched into my mind and those of most Pack fans old enough to remember. The team in red, the huge underdogs, hugging each other with tears streaming. Fists and/or index fingers raised to the sky to indicate that the Pack truly was number one in the land once […]
The just say “no” to mojo game day thread.
I do not believe who starts an internet story can affect the outcome of a game so I am jumping in here and starting it up. I hope this is a boring blow out win but those are pretty rare. I think we pull this one out and then prep for the Hoosiers. Midwest Regional […]

CBS reports Sryacuse basketball program is under investigation. More criminals being brought into the ACC by Swofford. Between Miami, UNC and now this we have no right to look down on the SEC. At this point it seems like the question is who is not cheating rather than who is. College sports is a big […]
