    Nice write up WP! I hope our kids wear the right pair of cleats tonight. I’ll be eating oysters and drinking heavily with the in laws tonight. I may need a pair of long spikes myself.

    ..Pup…

    Did you get a chance to look at the Injury Report this week?

    Who’s still battered and bruised from last Saturday night’s mugging ?

    Thanks Fastback :). I’m jealous – both oysters and drinking are wufpup favorites.

    Haha Bill – As far as I know all players are available to see the field tonight … er, I meant court. I was able to catch some of the Gottfried radio show last night and the WVa game dominated the discussion. They talked about a lot of things we discussed on the game and recap threads. Apparently the game was some experience for them … kinda like it was for us viewing it 🙂

    yep…. I would trade inlaws for oysters… any day…
    besides my inlaws treated me better than they did my wife…
    … I wish they were still around…
    ——————-
    Pup… I’m thinking we ain’t all looking at this right…
    Talked with a few kids home from school (State) last couple days …

    My sense is that the Kids on the bball team – those fr & sophs –
    are “learning GOTT && Companys ‘systems’ as fast as they can…

    … and they needed to experience the full range of what college ball offers which includes games like WVa…

    Apparently some of ’em ain’t learning… as fast as anybody (including Coach) would like or think they should…
    but I’m pretty sure about a couple of things…

    1. They didn’t learn jack in high school… that would help them now…
    2 GOTT && Company are on the job 24/7 and they ain’t gonna quit on this team…
    3. The kids ain’t gonna quit either… 100% – All in the da pool… No headcases… this season… for which Coach is damn happy. (see below)
    4. When Anthony or Anya or really anybody ‘reverts’ to their old ‘bad habits’ it’s really just a matter of instinct taking over when they under pressure… more games should fix that slowly…

    ___________

    Speaking of kids…
    Did I tell ya’ll my daughter (the State grad) bumped into CALVIN while Christmas shopping last week… old CALVIN has a new ‘baby’ !!

    She also said DeShawn Painter was playing ball in Belgium now.

    That’s right… DeShawn is making good money and CALVIN is changing diapers…
    My the kids do grow up fast … don’t they fellas ?

    Never been a fan of oysters, so no deal for me. Clams, scallops, shrimpies and anything with claws or fins works tho.
    But sadly (or not) I traded the inlaws and the ex a while ago for, well….sanity I suppose.

    LaTech is no pushover, but I’m nevertheless looking for the Pack to come out strong tonight and assert themselves.

    If I were Skip Holtz, my guys will be in as aggressive a zone allowable.

    Pressure on the edge and double teams on the wing.

    Non-State fans have really poo-pooed our schedule because they don’t follow basketball except when their teams play. I think Gott should be given a ton of credit for scheduling ‘easy’ games with teams that are tournament-bound, just like we should expect to be. Tonight is another example of a team that will vie for their own conference championship. By season’s end, we’ll look at the Purdue loss as by far the worst OOC loss.

    Anyone else double-fisting tonight? Got ‘Canes on the tube and State on the laptop!!

    Haha Calvin with a baby … good for him.

    Sacco, Purdue very may wind up being our worst OOC loss. Fans – especially of other teams – can make fun of our schedule as much as they want, but a lot of them are casual ‘front-running’ fans who wouldn’t know Wake Forest from a low major.

    Gott has scheduling down pat.

    ESPN3 doesn’t work outside the US (damned server can tell). Anyone have other streams that won’t make IT super pissed at me?

    firstrow is working fine… pup…

    It appears that PASS OR SIT in in full effect tonight…

    Both Lacey and Cat have dribbled under the basket and out the other side without shooting…

    We are getting some rebounds…
    Otherwise… it’s our traditional ‘rope-a-dope’ during the first four…

    0-6 won’t last for long after everybody has made a Pass or Two..

    CRC’s “ESPN2” seems to be the Norteamericano Deportes channel. I have Stanford/Tejas en ingles. Pero no Wolfpack or bowl games. Que lastima!

    Don’t feel bad, Bjd – I can’t get any of the 7pm telecasts to work on Espn3

    From Gamecast, looks like Cat is helping us with his rebounding again, at least. Is he morphing into Ish Benjamin?

    Haha can’t get first row to work, either. Enjoy the game everyone. Guess I’ll try to watch a replay later. Have fun!

    Freeman reminds me of those freakishly muscled rebounding machines Clemson had a few years ago.
