As we piggy-back this entry from just a couple of weeks ago that was written when NC State had ZERO conference wins in fall sports, it is time for our annual mention of just how poorly the NC State soccer programs are being managed (or, just how wonderful the programs are being mis-managed). Just last […]

Will you PLEASE get this message out?!
If you want some ECU, then hopefully you didn’t miss our pre-game/in-game entry or our first postgame entry. We’ll have a little more State-ECU talk during the week since we were busy with work last week and didn’t have a lot leading up to the game. Today’s entry is focused on something much more broad […]

Fowler Says Fans Won’t Run Out Of Water Tomorrow (Forecast: 78 degrees)

Raleigh — About 100 people at the N.C. State game, and 11 who played defense at Carter-Finley Stadium were treated Saturday afternoon for heat exhaustion and dehydration.
