We criticize the whole mechanism over there a lot, but thanks goes out to GoPack for sharing this with us. Link to article We expected Marcus Hudson to make the 49ers squad because of his versatility…but Oliver Hoyte’s addition to the Cowboys is wonderful! * If you ever really want to follow Wolfpackers in the […]

Pano Celebrates!
In the “Greece Celebrates” sidebar of ESPN.com’s recap of Team USA’s most recent “stunning” upset, we find this nugget from former NC State cult figure/icon Pano: “This is the biggest thing we’ve ever done,” former Greek star Panayiotis Fasoulas said. “The Americans are the most talented players but we have a better team. Right now […]
Grade Chuck Amato
As Chuck enters what could be a pivotal Year Seven – how do you grade Chuck’s tenure? Consider all aspects of his reign, from on-field results to program building. In my view, he did a great job coming in and building the program. But three below reasonable expectation seasons in a row drop his grade […]
Vikings release Koren Robinson
The title says it all. The Vikings release Koren Robinson.
Torry = Anti-TO
No surprise. But very nice press. I pride myself on my consistency,” Holt said. “It’s the same every year. Some guys it’s hot, warm, and then cold. Or it’s hot, lukewarm, cold and then hot again. For me, I like it to be about consistency. The other way makes no sense to me.” The way […]

Loren Jansen of the St. Peter Police Department told the St. Paul Pioneer Press that Robinson was arrested around 10:46 p.m. Tuesday for “driving while impaired.” At least Koren isn’t alone on the police […]

Mario in Spotlight; Rivers Era Begins (Updated 8/13; 10am)
It is going to be hard not to actively follow Philip Rivers and Mario Williams and other NC State alums in the NFL this year. But, we only have so many resources and time. Regardless, we couldn’t ignore this great piece in the Houston Chronicle today. On the practice fields of Reliant Park, Texans rookie […]
Rivers Impressive
We can’t follow every NC State alumnus playing football in the NFL (especially since the number of Wolfpackers in the NFL continues to grow and grow and grow). Additionally, we can’t focus an inordinate amount of attention on Philip Rivers has he gets ready to take the reigns of the San Diego Chargers. But, we […]
