Mass Exodus

It will probably take a while to process all of this week’s activity once all of the chips fall (Gerald Henderson?)…but, we didn’t want to ignore all of the recent developments that will have a huge impact on the ACC/College Basketball landscape next season. (By the way, we already began discussing next year’s college basketball [...]

Lowe in the Media; State playing in Hawaii

The following is some biting criticism from one of the more prominent national college basketball blogs: Let’s run through the challengers for Duke in the state of North Carolina (NC State left out for Sidney Lowe obvious reasons). Ouch! It is very painful to continue to be ridiculed for our complete irrelevance as a competitive [...]

We’re reposting this new article posted by Kara Webb on the site “Brian Keeter’s Recovery” by Kara Webb on 4/16/09.

Via Joe Giglio at ACC Now and a little more commentary from ACCSports.com can be viewed here. There is a rematch of UNC-Michigan State, which will be played in the Smith Center, and Duke goes on the road to play Wisconsin. No word as to whether Wisconsin will agree to move the game to the [...]

Brandon Tate Doesn’t Test Positive at UNC, Tests Positive for Smoking Weed in NFL

Wide receivers Percy Harvin and Brandon Tate tested positive for marijuana during February’s NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis, two sources told FOXSports.com. Wow. All of those years in Chapel Hill and he just now starts using weed? So, Hakeem Nicks matriculates towards graduation with an intelligence barely high enough to make him intellectually functional on [...]

ACC Sports Journal Wolfpack Insider: Dividing Lines

This article from the ACC Sports Journal was one of the more interesting and accurate takes on the relationship between NC State fans, former basketball coach Herb Sendek, and current AD Lee Fowler. This also was the only article written by the ACC media on the rumors of Lee Fowler’s departure that spread on various [...]

Torry Holt Signs With Jacksonville

Former NC State standout and NFL stalwart Torry Holt has signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars for thirteen million dollars over three years.
