I cut it pretty close, but I still managed to get to the baseball team before Friday’s opener against Appalachian State. I’ll add to this periodically; I only had about an hour to throw in tonight. 2013 should be a fun year for the Wolfpack, who return a solid nucleus from last year’s squad that […]
General
Clemson game thread
Given BJD’s recent history with game threads I think it is a good idea to mix things up. I think we win this one by 13. The first half stays close but we pull away in the second. This starts our run to finish 11-7 in the conference.
Key fact retracted of Gov. Martin’s report
As we get ready to watch the Wolfpack try to add a blemish on Miami’s conference record, the News and Observer dropped a significant article regarding the report by Governor Martin stating that the UNC fraud was an academic problem and not an athletic problem. The accounting firm that worked with former Gov. Jim Martin […]
New Forums are here!
Just in time for the big game tomorrow. Go ahead and head over to www.statefansnation.com/forums/ for the new platform (and hopefully, SPAMMER proof). A few things to note, and please listen up. The user bases between the Blog and the Forums are no longer connected. This means that you need to register for a new […]
Open Thread
So some Chinese bastards really took their toll on our forums that we had to take down to stop the bleeding. Really adds insult to injury after last night. So use this thread to post things you would have otherwise on the forums. All our volunteer labor is on hand and working on getting the […]
Social media blunder
TJ Warren retweeted Thomas DaThey’s tweet about Gottfried. I have no idea what was his motivation. Was he highlighting how childish TDT is acting or was he agreeing with it. Either way he should not have done it and the NCSU administration needs to get in front of this ASAP. I hope this is not […]
First LiveBlog of 2013 – State vs. Duke (aka “5 Against 8”)
I suppose I am liveblogging today because I need to exorcise some demons. I am still not over last year’s screw job in Durham. I hope the entire team – staff and players has held onto their rage as well, and lets it out on the darker blues this afternoon. See you in a bit. […]
Howell taking charge
WRAL has a good article about Richard Howell. “We’ve got to box him out,” Plumlee said. “Sometimes his best shot is a missed shot because he just goes and gets it and gets closer to the basket. He’s a tough player, plays physical and he’s a high-motor guy inside and around the basket.” I thought […]
End of Preseason Summary
Now that the college basketball preseason has wrapped up, let’s take our annual look around the ACC to see what there is to see. Long time readers will remember that I have a simplistic way to judge when a team from a BCS conference has accomplished enough to clear the bubble and land into the […]
UNC Scandal Cited In Pennsylvania Antitrust Litigation With The NCAA
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s lawsuit against the NCAA’s treatment of Penn State University in the wake of the school’s Jerry Sandusky sex scandal has an extremely interesting local angle: it cites the  UNC athletics academic fraud scandal.  The litigation claims that the Penn State is being punished for matters outside of the scope and reach […]
