Don’t ask me who the Colonels are…or who the guy in the picture is…but, isn’t it nice to know that your official school website can be trusted to provide you such accurate information on the really easy stuff? Check out this screen shot of “Toney Baker” in the amazing recap (written by the Associated Press) […]
SFN Stuff
Lee Fowler speaks again
I know this is a surprise but our intrepid AD held another interview. There are some interesting quotes that tell alot about our athletic department. Lee had this to say “Championships are important,” he said, “but I don’t think it’s a negative year if you don’t win the championship, if you’ve had a good year […]
All-Time Best: NC State vs Michigan
ESPN’s Page 2 is running an interesting feature – “The Greatest College Hoops Tournament” where the supposed All-Time best of 32 different schools are matched in a fantasy hoops match-ups. Unfortunately for us, the #10 Michigan Wolverines is predicted to wax #23 NC State in both predictions. The Blue and Gold give the partisan crowd […]
Wolfpack Hoops ‘Not Hot’ (Not Really)
ESPN.com has listed NC State Hoops as “Not Hot”. (sarcasm) Somebody pull ESPN’s press passes and let’s disregard everything that they say…or don’t say…from this point forward. Obviously, they have a personal problem with Herb Sendek because of his personality and cannot be trusted!! (realism) I don’t think ESPN was really indicting the Wolfpack’s program […]
Quote: Basketball Passion
From Fayetteville Observer’s NC State Basketball Preview: As hard as it is to believe now, especially for anyone born since 1983, N.C. State was once the program UNC and Duke wanted to pattern themselves after, instead of the other way around. The Wolfpack won two national championships and enjoyed an undefeated season during a glorious […]
Kilgo: ACC Basketball is Down
“The ACC isn’t that good this year…there aren’t that many good teams” – John Kilgo talking ACC Basketball on WFNZ Radio in Charlotte on November 9, 2005
Mel Kiper, Jr. on NC State
Once more, while out driving and listening to XM radio (around 8:50 last night, bringing home Chinese food), I heard a major national figure unexpectedly talk NC State football. Draft guru (and generally astute football analyst) Mel Kiper, Jr. said 2 interesting things: 1) Chuck Amato deserves “another year” to see what he can do […]
Headscratchers: NC State 20 FSU 15
Occassionally, Statefansnation will run some reviews of what we consider to be headscratching calls from NC State games. I can understand some people thinking that this feature may be nitpicking (since we won the game) and some will think it is inconsequential (because we won the game). But, why does a team have to LOSE […]
Sound Familiar?
The more I research and learn about other college football programs, the more I realize that maybe NC State fans aren’t the only ones that are so bad? Maybe we aren’t the only ones who want to win? A couple of weeks ago, I was ‘shocked’ to witness Ohio State fans in the Horseshoe boo […]
More Great Media Coverage of NC State Football
I was listening to Sporting News Radio (on my beloved XM radio) this morning on the way to work. The morning guys were talking college football with Matt Hayes, and I was surprised to hear him talk at some length about NC State. Turns out, they were discussing this article, which I found under “magazine […]
