One of the more heralded football recruits in recent memory to make their way to West Raleigh is certainly Toney Baker. The Jamestown, NC player was a consensus All-American, and it was the Army All-Star game on national television that Toney did the hat dance where he ultimately donned the red and white cap with […]

It Was The Sweetest Of Days In Chapel Hill
It was the sweetest of days Saturday for Wolfpack fans: a State team whomping on UNC at will, Carolina fans heading back to their cars and the good ole “Wolf” “Pack” cheers rattling off of the aluminum seats that the so-called best fanbase in the country left behind. Basically State ran Carolina off of their […]

Next year’s 12th football game
At the risk of over-stating the obvious – next year is a very important year for the NC State Football program and every single leader with any type of influence over the direction of the football program. Unless the Wolfpack can string together four consecutive wins to close out the 2008 season, the program is […]
I Hope That This Is On The Wolfpack Bulletin Board
 Tomahawk Nation’s rather unflattering prediction Florida State will stifle NC State’s offense. Wilson will get a few decent scrambles as we lose contain , and maybe a big pass or two. For the most part, though, we will force them into negative and low percentage plays, while constantly hitting the untalented NC State players. Everette […]

N&O: Amato was right about Akron
I love this kind of stuff. I love looking back and reviewing issues with some hindsight and holding people accountable to their words. Tip of the hat to the N&O for their insightful use of yesterday’s APR announcement. Given the scholarship penalties handed out by the NCAA on Tuesday, Chuck Amato was a man ahead […]

Putting the Blame Where It Lies
Harsh, but spot-on. The source is really surprising, but apparently nobody in the Triangle market had the stones to call it like it is. One simply indisputable fact about N.C. State football became obvious this week. After spending the team’s bye week giving the third team (mainly expected-redshirt freshman, low-value scholarship athletes and walk-ons) as […]
