If anything, […]

Bubble Coach is Good Enough For NC State
Tom Sorensen from the Charlotte Observer in today’s article: We hear about bubble teams. N.C. State’s Herb Sendek is a bubble coach. He’s too good to fire but he’s not good enough to fire up fans. He has a winning record but he can’t beat Duke or North Carolina. He always gets to the NCAA […]

Tudor’s Value circa 1983 Tidbit
