Nice to see that this turned BEFORE half time, so this isn’t a painful venture….horrible. Just another conference/away loss.
Good news for this program only comes in the W-L column at this point. And I haven’t heard any good news for a while….
Not that stars matter overall, but where is this guy listed a 4 star? Rivals, scout, 247 and ESPN all have him as a 3 star. Again, doesn’t really matter just curious why he’s reported as a 4 star in the article?
Great pick up. Hopefully more follow suit.
“They’re not better than us,” Donnie Miles, a UNC freshman linebacker, was screaming as he walked off the field. For the second consecutive year, though, the scoreboard told a different story, though the final score described only a small portion of ECU’s record-setting victory.

HAHAHA!
Perhaps it was meant to read “classes DESIGNED FOR student athletes?”(or the lack there off) That would fall more in line with the culture over there.
Maybe so, but from all else who aren’t State fans, no wonder U*NC rightfully so considers NC State fans of being hung up on Carolina doing poorly.
UNC still “screwed” NC State out of the baseball tournament (due to “poor officiating….again, never heard one that before!) beat State in football and finished several spots above State in B-ball.
I hate Carolina as much as anyone, and am the first to call BS on a U*NC fan who starts getting high and mighty about their image and the scandal being a nonevent, but please for the love of God can Wolfpack nation please work on getting out of the gutter in football/basketball and worry about it’s own W/L column (while doing it by the book) with out obsessing about the UNC scandal? They are who they are, now lets focus on our own stuff and getting our program looking good.
It’d be so much better if the fan base/blogosphere would just rise above it, much like the State administration appears to do.
As much as I think Boeheim is an A hole, I did like that he admitted (after beating state) that state should have won.
I just hear the “give _____ credit” so much I somewhat get frustrated. Who are you fooling? Just take admit it!
Always fascinated about why players/coaches of losing teams always feel the need to say “give ___________ credit for winning the game”.
What does that even mean? It’s just like a guilty politician saying “I take full responsibility for my actions” on a news interview after they been identified in a scandal. It’s just an empty gesture, so why even bother?
Come on, sometimes everyone knows the outcome is solely on the losing team for giving it away…just call it what it is. It’s not poor sportsmanship to be honest.

Rolling into existing SL game thread
VaWolf82Good teams find a way to win, folks. 0-2 against unc last two years in football, 0-2 this year alone in basketball, and got knocked out of the CWS by unc. Thems is the #s. They don’t lie. I’m glad I don’t have kids to send to school clad in state gear. It’d be near child abuse. Cheaters or not they’re winners. State is not.
Did I mention good teams find a way to win? Just own the reality and stop complaing about some stupid conspiracy. It just makes this dismal pile of crap that is state athletic look even more like a joke. Complaining about the refs once or twice, fine. But not after every loss. So what if it is the refs? Stuff won’t change until state is the team the league needs to win. Worked for cuse, sans their game at duke. This is where we are. State sucks. It’s no one else’s fault.
Seems awfully fair to unc!!! 2-0 over their in-state foe (not even a rival and I don’t blame them). What NC States excuse?
Eeven lowly BC finished off what state couldn’t against ‘cuse. It’s reality folks. And winning the big game is a aberration at state, not a culture. It’s a culture at unc and duke. Sorry, but that’s reality folks. Accept it.
Lol “NC State sucks”, says everyone who isn’t a state fan. Get used to the reality folks…it’s slowly become the culture over the past 15 years and it’s in full effect now. No potential recruit currety in high school knows any different.
Just win games, the important ones. No point in bitching and moaning anymore. The whole “brand” is an effing joke and the fan base needs to begin to accept that until there’s more #s in the W column.
I’m glad that push off charge was FINALLY called on Golden. He’d done that (and scored) several times without a call.
Anyone else find it curious that the free throw % and field goal % (55 and 53, respectively) are with in a negligible margin? That’s gotta be better. To me that’s an indicator of other sloppy things too…
I’m really, really perplexed on how Yow had to fill the slate with 3 FCers
Had a hard finding a W against anyone IN the conference last year, might as well try to get em where you can find em.
Wolf71, 4-8, 5-7 unfortunately looks realistic, when I try to think about the talent/experience returning. My hunch is that the O might have an OK line and some magic with RBs/WRs but D? OH MY! I’ll note that the D did do much better than the O last year on many occasions….hopefully that production continues.
I have the same question regarding the size of the class. How many spots available? I wonder if those who were “no longer on the roster” were quietly ushered out the door? Would hate to think that but perhaps someone who a better grasp on the situation can chime in.
“Looking at it on TV you can’t tell if these are coaching issues or if the players aren’t coachable”
Wake’s coach knew exactly what to do with 10.5 seconds left with what Gott put on the floor. Got a basket and a foul. That wasn’t razzle dazzle. It was drawn up. Gott had nothing drawn up with 4.5 seconds left to at least try for a good shot.
You’re saying that’s not coaching?
