Wolfpack fans can buy &/or renew season basketball tickets for the 2006-2007 season at Gopack.com. Interestingly, NO SCHEDULE for the 2006-2007 season has been released as of yet. (Click here for an informative, related conversation about what we do know of the schedule.) Not to be overly critical here…but, isn’t this a curious situation? Have […]
NC State
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 […]
(Insert School Here) Dreams Only One Hire Away
I ran across this piece tonight on CBS Sportsline and just had to highlight it. (Don’t worry…it isn’t a Greg Doyel article). (Link) OK, Nebraska. No excuses. Just go make the hire. Don’t assume Kansas and Texas are too far ahead to catch in the Big 12. They’re not. Don’t assume a football school can’t […]

NFL Notes: Mario, Manny, McCargo & More
Give The News & Observer some credit for doing a good job of following the Wolfpack’s “6 Pack” of draftees. The N&O ran this summary of 2006 Wolfpack football alums as NFL training camps are opening. Mario Williams earned rave reviews in Houston during his first NFL practice. (Link) The Houston Texans’ No. 1 draft […]
Fascinating Idea (Update @ Noon – New Football League
In the same vein of mixing sports and business and The Big 12 Network comes a new football league that are going to be connected to, and play at college campuses. We’ve heard rumblings about folks at NC State being a little fearful of having a little too much debt connected to renovations at Carter-Finley […]
State “geeks take second world title”
A quick congratulations to the NC State team that won the World Title “earlier this month in a prestigious contest known as the IEEE Computer Society International Design Competition. It was the first time a school had won the $20,000 award twice.” Link to N&O article here. Fantastic work guys/gals/whomever!! We can only wonder how […]
LOL! Leave it to Lee!
There is not very much in this “Q&A with John Swofford” of that much value. But, of course, we couldn’t help ourselves when we saw the ‘chosen’ Athletics Director running his mouth in the public forum about the conference’s finances. Our critics will undoubtedly find ways to criticize us for being hypersensitive on the topic; […]
