With a couple of games to go in the regular season, a lot can still happen before the ACC Tournament’s seeding gets set.
Celebrate the Big Four on Sunday
Ron Green, Sr took off his Carolina-blue glasses and was kind enough to include the rest of the Big Four in a great article in today’s Charlotte Observer. Green is kind enough to include NC State in his conversation about the Big Four, despite the fact that we have done little to support the prominence […]
Gary Williams to the rescue…again
Williams on Sendek After NC State swept Maryland a week and a half ago, Terps coach Gary Williams offered some complimentary words for NC State Head Coach, Herb Sendek. “Herb Sendek prepares his teams as well as anybody we play against,” Williams said. “He does a great job. He should get a lot more credit […]
Goodbye, Brothers Pizza
Brothers Pizza closed its doors tonight. N&O: Brothers Says Goodbye “Brothers Pizza will serve its last pie tonight, ending a four-decade run as N.C. State University’s unofficial campus pizzeria. The restaurant on Hillsborough Street is the latest in a string of inexpensive eateries gone bust on the university community’s traditional main street. Opened in the […]
Digger: State is today’s ‘Must Win’
Digger Phelps of ESPN’s College Gamebday cited NC State as his pick in a “must win” team on today’s college basketball slate. Additionally, Jay Bilas cited Virginia Tech over NC State as “upset alert” for the day. In Las Vegas, the Wolfpack opened the day as an 11 point favorite. I have seen some lines […]
Essay: What REALLY Happened 9 Years Ago
Note: The following essay was provided to Statefans’ by a long time Wolfpack fan. We appreciate the opportunity to publish the perspective. What I Think REALLY Happened Nine Years Ago By Sammy Kent I’ve related this story before, in conversations and on message boards, but it has taken on a clearer meaning for me as […]
Technician Weighs in on Sendek
In a surprising development, NC State’s student newspaper ran this article today. As a student at NC State from 1991-1995, I remember the dogged level of irrational support the Technician’s sports page gave to a clearly overmatched Les Robinson. With that context, Ryan Reynolds’ article certainly adds another log to an already raging fire of […]
Maybe the Stars Were Aligned After All?
Prior to last night’s game, Jeff blogged an entry presenting the possibility that the Pack might be in a special situation to knock off the Tarheels. Just because the Wolfpack failed to capitalize on this opportunity doesn’t mean that the table wasn’t completely set for NC State win. Let’s look at all of the things […]
No McCants? No Problem for Tarheels
I thought that the stars might have been aligned for the Wolfpack on Tuesday night, but the Pack couldn’t pull through with a win for the home crowd (again). Carolina beat State by ten tonight. Why should Sendek’s Birthday be any different from the rest of his nine years. NC State dropped to 15-11 overall […]
Is Pack Still Feeling Special @ Home?
=> During last week’s win over Maryland, I blogged a halftime entry and a post-game entry that both mentioned how the Wolfpack and the RBC Center seemed kind of “old school” during the game. The fans felt/sounded good. The white uniforms looked crisp. Even Billy Packer was courtside commentating like the old days. => Rashad […]
