I will be honest here – I am so inured to the culture of corruption, and Monty Python’s Black Knight caliber of willful and idiotic denial…I didn’t think anything UNC scandal related could shock me anymore.

Just Another Top Ten Matchup in Raleigh – FSU Weekend Preview
For the second time in three weeks, the eyes of college baseball will be focused on Doak Field. No need to get cute with this one (but that doesn’t mean I won’t eventually at some point…but business first) as this is just as big of a series as the UNC-CH series was two weeks ago. [...]

State opens +13.5 vs FSU
OUCH! Not a whole lotta respect for the home team this week. To be fair, we don’t deserve a lot of respect. The good news is that Carter-Finley Stadium has served us relatively well in the recent series against the Seminoles. NC State has won four of the last seven games played in Raleigh. 2010 [...]
Florida State bans players from Twitter
A couple of of weeks ago SFN posted this thread on our message forums that discussed some pretty disturbing tweets from some Florida State football players. (We can’t put everything on the blog, so I hope that you also surf our message forums for a more robust coverage of relevant topics each day.) With those [...]
