The Florida Gators come to town for an ‘inflexion’ in the Wolpack’s 2009-2010 season. To this point in the season, the NC State has tracked slightly ahead of expectations.

The absence of a strong backcourt bites NC State again as the Wolfpack fails to handle the ball appropriately throughout the day and has nobody who can play defense against opposing guards – like Nick Calathus. If only John Wall is watching and can recognize the solid balance comprised in the Wolfpack’s roster before the [...]

If you have an interest in Steve Spurrier – the man who doesn’t want to hear clapping after losses – then you will most definitely appreciate this link from the SFN archives. Not only is there a lot in the entry but the comments section provides some interesting articles and comments. (Update: This [...]

Those looking for tough out-of-conference scheduling need look no further than January 3, 2009 when NC State comes down to Gainesville to pay me a visit in a showdown with the Florida Gators. Of course we have yet to see how the conference schedule pans out, but most likely this will be the “tune-up” game [...]
