    This national coverage seems to be what will finally bring down the scandalous sports cabal in Chapel Hill. However, Dan Kane’s coverage, apparently, is the main reason that it has not died down long ago. Talk about persistence!

    Some time ago, not long following Bubba Cunningham’s hiring, seems that he was in a video saying something to the effect that “as long as we (UNC) can keep this a local story, we will be alright”. Shortly after that: “boom” with the NYT article, Bloomberg BW, etc….

    That video showing him saying that should be made available to all the national media now, indicating that Cunningham thought that the UNC cabal could suppress local exposure to their shenanigans.

    Professor Julius had better stay away from buses – and dump trucks and such for awhile, just in case something “unfortunate” happens.

    Julius, watch out for Tony Soprano and his “friends”!

    Pride, good work.
    Saturday’s game was not the start i was hoping for – for either NCSU or the new qb. But, there is still a lot of time to fix what wasn’t up to par, given the relatively easy Sept schedule. Last year’s VA Tech season is an excellent case-in-point. I don’t think Liberty is much, if any, less of a team than JMU was when they knocked off VA Tech. By the end of the season, that game proved to be more of an upset than the AppSt/MI game, didn’t it?

    Some of us are hung up on comparing Glennon to RW. No reason to rehash or compare, but it keeps happening anyway. I haven’t seen anything yet to persuade me that one year of RW would be better than two years of Glennon. But for those who insist on making this compare/contrast, I would love to start a thread about last year being Wilson’s “third-best year” at NCSU. (I typed “worst” at first, but caught myself in time and corrected it.)

    If Glennon can get more comfortable and adjusted at his position, I still hold out a LOT of hope for him to put up big numbers in at least a few games before the year is over. We don’t need our new qb to be the best player on the team in order to have a good season like last year. We’ve got players all over the field who were good, or better than “good”, in 2010. I am convinced that Glennon improved 100% by the end of the game.

    My concern Saturday is just as much for all the other experienced players as it is for inexperienced Glennon. Experience very well may prove to be all that Glennon needs.

    But, on Saturday v. Liberty, there was just as much concern about the experienced players, who don’t have as many excuses as Glennon does for that worrisome first half.

    Go, Wolfpack! We got a W. Hopefully we can get about 7 or 8 more this year, but that goal is clearly in jeopardy based on the Liberty game. @WF is a much better measure of the 2011 season.
