I live up in Northern Virginia in the Shenandoah Valley and graduated from State in 1992 and heard directly from the father of one of the top 5 linebacker prospects that coach Doreen was a real arrogant jerk to his son on a recruiting visit. Here’s the kicker… this top prospect’s dad also graduated from NC State and after the visit said his son said he would not consider going to State! How’s that for a kick in the teeth. This kid, a 6’5″ 230b kid, goes to the same high school as my son and is an A-B student, captain of the football team, and an all around nice guy, as is his dad. For Doreen to behave arrogantly toward this guy and his sone when he wanted to attend NC State is unbelievable! In the end, he chose Penn State and will be attending under full scholarship next year. This was not even a swing and a miss… it was not even trying! Sad… I am actually hoping we lose all of the rest of our games, except UNC of course, to get him out the door.
Like back in 1983 when Duran Duran’s “Hungry Like the Wolf” was popular, there is a popular song out now that (sort of) references wolves…it is “Hollow Moon (Bad Wolf)” by Awolnation. May not be to everyone’s taste, but wanted to share. Every time I hear this I think of State! Go Pack!
Out of those listed, I am not scared of Villanova, already beat Louisville, gave UVA all they could handle and beat Duke (and also got the poo beat out of us by them as well…). UK, of course…. But taking it one step at a time, I think we can beat a guard heavy team like Nova, then see how the team handles success! Could be fun.
