Fowler: We can be “Real Good”
“Our fans are comparing ourselves to Duke and North Carolina. Every program in the country doesn’t do well when you’re compared with those two on a day-to-day basis. I understand that our fans want to be able to compete with them; we all do. But you can be real good on a daily basis and […]

Goodbye, Brothers Pizza
Brothers Pizza closed its doors tonight. N&O: Brothers Says Goodbye “Brothers Pizza will serve its last pie tonight, ending a four-decade run as N.C. State University’s unofficial campus pizzeria.

Technician Weighs in on Sendek
In a surprising development, NC State’s student newspaper ran this article today. As a student at NC State from 1991-1995, I remember the dogged level of irrational support the Technician’s sports page gave to a clearly overmatched Les Robinson. With that context, Ryan Reynolds’ article certainly adds another log to an already raging fire of […]

The Mind Of Lee Fowler
Article by: Michael Byrne Looking at today?s (February 9) News & Observer creates a disturbing sense of déª vu. The newspaper lauds for page after page tonight?s marquee game between Duke and North Carolina, programs finding their usual February place (in Carolina?s case fully recovered from Matt Doherty) at the top of the ACC heap.

Quotes of Note: Fallout from Beating
Lots of fallout from the local media regarding the Wolfpack’s (lack of) “effort” against Carolina. My general reaction to most of these writers who are suddenly following the lead of John Brasier’s incredible article this weekend is, “Where the hell have you been for the majority of the last nine years?” But, no reason to […]
