Remember that Shaka ain’t done DIDDLY at UT. He took Barnes’ Talent and went to the NCAA last year. Lowe did that with Herbie’s talent and almost beat UNC in the ACCT Final game.
Uh Lowe never made the NCAA tournament.
Joe, Mr. INSIDER, Giglio (N&O fame) has a column….Debbie is doing Keats and Wade today.

MY impeccable sources tell me….DY’s iPhone is OFF. THAT would be a sure giveaway that something heavy is happening (or it got stolen as it did in Columbus).
Goodmon and Giglio seem to be on the same page. Anyone tracking Hogforce 1 or HogLimo 1?
We need OPERATIVES on the street. Someone should be on stakeout at the Case Center…
Clemson AD has NOT tweeted that Brownell has been shown the door….so WADE might be in the market. VCU folks? They are TIRED of coaches coming and going…they do not even have a thread on Wade’s departure…
Never said that LOWE made the NCAA. My point….Gottfried took Lowe’s talent and got the Sweet 16. I went to St. Louis for that.
I was in Tampa when Lowe made the best run of his tenure in the ACC Tourney. Had we more legs, we WOULD have went to the NCAA that year. Even the UNC fans were panicking. Googs and other NCSU players were in the VIP section and at the half felt we had a good shot.
My point, again….Shaka’s first two years at UT are WORSE than Gottfried’s was at NCSU. Maybe we WOULD have been better with him, but his wife said NO. That, most folks, forget and tend to think that AD Yow mucked that up.
Shaka and the NCSU lawyers had the LOI ready for release and the Monday Presser was planned. Shaka’s wife woke up and was in a Hormone imbalance (pregnant) and REFUSED to go. VCU had raided the piggy banks and borrowed the first year earnings from the Wives and Daughter’s working lower Broad Street for the next year.
Their offer was close enough and wifey said…TAKE IT….or ELSE….go to Raleigh and I MIGHT come down….after your child is born. NO PRESSURE….all Yow’s part for NOT asking….Is your WIFE Pregnant? Is SHE OK with you leaving?
Because of his ties to Sendek, I doubted from the start he’d want to coach here. I read somewhere his brother cautioned him not to take the job because he’d be coaching against UNC.
Lauren Brownlow writes this is a “tough neighborhood”. I agree. We are competing with crooks. They ruined our program in ’89 via their BOG proxy. Then they set up a fraudulent academic program on a scale never seen before to expand the pool of players to include those who weren’t college material. It appears likely they’ll skate on that. So yeah, it’s a “tough neighborhood”.
And it’s a “tough neighborhood” when most of the media badmouths you. Gary Parrish’s write up of Tom Crean’s ouster contained nary a disparaging word about IU. It was vastly different than the condescending editorial he wrote about Gottfried’s firing. Oh yes, and Calipari, about that deep tournament run …
NC State isn’t in a tougher neighborhood than any other ACC job. No matter where you are geographically, you still play UNC and Duke once or twice, and maybe in the tournament.

And even the loss probably helps your RPI. A win skyrockets it.
I can already see it now. Keatts will be eaten up by this league. And when the lunatic fringe starts rolling over on him in year 2 or 3 due to us remaining at the bottom of the ACC it’s going to be portrayed in the media as being an ignorant, intolerant, and racist fan base.
Nothing matters except who the Down East money has seen on the Rubber Chicken circuit and eaten hush puppies with. This is what happens when you have a weak AD.
If Archie don’t want it, so be it. He was a good option and if it don’t pan out, so be it, you certainly have to respect his decision and move on. If he’s waiting for the Indiana gig, good luck with that, Indiana wants ALFORD and has the jack to back it up!!
Yow = Jethro
Good Luck to Coach Keats (sincerely)
buy out Yow’s contract and send her on the her way!!!!
Yow is WORSE than Fowlup. I have no idea how we will manage to find someone even worse than her, but I’m sure we will be committed to trying.
So much for the homerun. We just foul tipped a bunt for our 3rd strike. What a freaking clown college.
McCallum gets props for calling this weeks ago.

I know this is a difficult time, but come on now.
We should have just kept Gottfried. Why did we do this to our athletic program. We better be paying him 20 bucks a game.
Face it boys.. we’re less than mediocre basketball school these days. Nothing about this makes any sense. Yow absolutely rushed this search in an overcompensation of her last basketball search. It was totally bungled.
It means Marshall just wanted a raise.
And Archie wasn’t coming no matter how many chickens BJD sacrificed

This entirely.
