NC State’s strong finish in the 2014 season has re-established the Wolfpack as a team that is getting some notice and getting some attention from the
[See the full post at: Doeren’s Wolfpack hitting on the radar]I think VT may be living off some of their previous work as i see a slow steady descent in their performance. It is not clear to me what others see for placing them so high. It’s almost like a “we are setting the bar high for Beamer to keep his job” situation.
Watson is the wild card at Clemson. He is special but they don’t have anyone good enough to replace him if his injuries persist.
The strong finish was at least partially aided by a weaker schedule to finish the season. In any event, next season is always a new team and we’ll see what we see. Right now the important thing is for the coaches to use the finish to take a big step forward in recruiting.
Last year’s strong finish certainly helped our recruiting for the incoming class…next year is huge…as pack fans we know all too well what happens when good things are expected!
This article gave a few Pack players some love as “underrated stars” by doing blind comparisons to well-known performers from last year.
http://espn.go.com/blog/acc/post/_/id/81694/by-the-numbers-accs-underrated-stars?ex_cid=espnapi_publicThere’s nowhere for State football to go but up, when you consider that out of the 256 players drafted by the NFL last week, ZERO were from NCSU. At least, I couldn’t find a single one on the list.
Hell, even Mars Hill had a player drafted near the end.
13ot – he actually transferred from state.
But pretty paltry showing in the draft…I do think the talent problem is being addressed. I am worried about offensive and defensive tackles…we lost some experienced grown men out there.
Worryworts.
Hey…13OT.
What the hell did you expect from the culmination of TOB’s last ride?
BTW. Crisp, Chandler, McGill…eventually Baumann and Sade, actually have a better shot at things than if they got blessings via the last round.
Slap My Forehead.
Cow – I think you are older than I – but I’ve seen lots of promising seasons go down the toilet when we’ve had holes up front.
Of course, the pack nation should rest easy, because when I am worried we do good things, when confident…well…
No question, Chops.
No line, no win.Nothin’ wrong with worryworts, that a competetive program wont cure.
Yep cow…I generally expect history to repeat itself.
There have been several times when we have been on the cusp. It’s sad to day this but I will know we’re having a special football team if we win @ BC and @ wake.
I think we can do it. We do have plenty of question marks – but we have plenty of bodies to throw at the problem.
