A few years ago, we ran a “Where are they now” on Rodney Monroe that you can review by clicking here. It is definitely worth a look. The following are just a couple of comments that were posted in the conversation that I wanted to elevate here. I’ll never forget that NCAA Tournament game against […]

Nate’s a Bronco!!!
 Congratulations to Nate Irving for going much higher than expected. John Fox knows defense, and apparently he liked what he saw on film. This Bronco fan is very, very pleased to have more incentive to hit the sports bar whenever the stupid f-ing lockout ends. Here’s a link to the brief article on the […]
RIP, Ricky Bell [Updated 2/26]
Sadly, former Wolfpack defensive back Ricky Bell (under Dick Sheridan) has died. Our condolences to his friends and family. Bell joins a sadly too-long list of players from that era (or of even more recent vintage) to have passed away, including Edrick Smith, Corey Smith, Chris Colmer, and Damien Covington. [Feb 26 Update] News & […]
Hope to Walk Golf Classic
Thanks to the heads-up on our forums from TNPackFan: Many of you are probably aware of the car accident two years ago that left former Wolfpack basketball player Brian Keeter paralyzed from the waist down. Brian is now involved in intensive spinal cord injury recovery therapy. Brian’s progress has been very exciting. He has […]
Jets’ Cotchery doesn’t grab attention, just receptions
The New York Post and the New York Times ran pieces about Jerricho Cotchery this week. All well deserved. Link to Times piece. Link to Post piece. Largely overshadowed by brash fellow receivers Santonio Holmes and Braylon Edwards, Jerricho Cotchery doesn’t do choreographed celebrations or headlinegrabbing trash-talk. All he seems to do is play — […]
Byting a busy Sunday
Lots of stuff going on worth discussing. Philip Rivers finishes the season as the NFL’s most prolific passer with more than 4,700 yards. Rivers and NC State’s Adrian Wilson both made the Pro Bowl this year and was discussed in this entry that includes some interesting conference analysis. Wonder how much Wolfpackers care about […]
RIP Chris Colmer
Very sad news in WolfpackNation. Don’t know what to say about this. Chris Colmer dies Chris Colmer, who was a standout offensive lineman for N.C. State from 2000 to 2004, has died, his agent said Thursday. Colmer was 30. Colmer’s agent, Jonathan Feinsod, said Colmer’s family is grieving, and he declined to provide further details. […]
Philip Rivers & Adrian Wilson make NFL Pro Bowl
Congratulations to NC State’s Philip Rivers and Adrian Wilson for making the NFL’s 2011 Pro Bowl! I’m certain Mario Williams would have joined the NC State alums on the All-Star rosters if not for season-long nagging injuries that ultimately shelved his season. The selection must be particularly satisfying for Rivers who has been robbed by […]
Could Cowher end up in Houston?
Would be awesome news for Mario Williams/Wolfpack lovers. Report: Cowher eyes three teams As Bill Cowher nears the fourth anniversary of his resignation from the Steelers, Chris Mortensen of ESPN has linked Cowher to a trio of teams. Cowher’s wish list, per Mort, consists of the Dolphins, Texans, and Giants. Former Steelers running back Jerome […]
Bill Cowher: “I’m open to listen to opportunitiesâ€
I know some of you are getting a tingly feeling in your leg a la Chris Matthews. Cowher chatted yesterday with USA Today and is hinting that he may be ready to return to the sidelines. Cowher said, “I’m open to listen to opportunities … I’m very comfortable at CBS. I’ll keep all my options […]
