Link to interview IMHO, Bilas is the current star of college basketball analysts and I usually respect his perspectives. (Nobody is perfect). In this interview he comments on the Doug Gottlieb vs Coach K controversy, but has to be very careful to parse Gottlieb’s words so that he doesn’t offend Daddy K. If you haven’t [...]

850TheBuzz has a good interview with Russell Wilson that you will enjoy. (Link to interview) I never stop being impressed by this young man. The latter part of the interview discusses Russell’s passion for baseball as well as football. However, there doesn’t seem to be any legitimate likelihood of Andrew Jones’ dream of Wilson [...]

So many good things keep hitting that we have to keep adding to this entry. After the misery that was much of basketball season, spring brings renewed hope to NC State fans in the form of the off-season football practices that will lay down much of the foundation of this fall’s squad. 850 The Buzz interviewed Coach [...]

99.9 FM Interview with Lee Fowler His first comment about basketball is that had Horner made the three-pointer he took with the Wolfpack up four with about 6:20 left, the game might have been different. Maybe. But then Fowler says it was back and forth the rest of the game. Hmmm. I seem to remember a [...]

I generally skip any and everything that is related to Bomani Jones…but, I forced myself to listen to this interview because it was with Coach Lowe and I found it worth my time. So, I didn’t want to call it to your attention if you hadn’t heard it. Additionally, ACCSports.com/ACC Sports Journal is allowing free access [...]

“There’s only one voice, and that’s my voice,” Lowe said. “… It’s my way. And our guys understand that”……”I can assure you, we will never have that situation again,” Lowe said. “They’re going to accept their roles, and I think our guys know that. And if they don’t, they won’t play.” - NC State Head Basketball [...]

Interview with 850TheBuzz Interview with the media The real story of the day may come from what was not said in Coach Lowe’s time with the media: Q: Any other personnel changes? A: Not that I can discuss at this point. Q: Not just the players, but any other staff changes? A: Not that I can discuss at this point. The [...]

LINK. Not much news, but does provide another good window into Coach O’Brien’s steady, cerebral mindset. The Dick Sheridan comparisons look more apt every day. He also says we should expect to win championships. Imagine that!

The Red & White football game is approaching this weekend and Wolfpack fans are starting to look ahead to the 2008 season. (That’s what we do as NC State fans – look ahead…OR…look very far in the past). I just had to tell you how impressed I continue to be with NC State’s Head Coach, Tom [...]

Every fan of every school has a cache of moments that are particularly special to them for some reason or another. Because the years of 1980-1985 were so forgettable…1986 came along for me at a time where I was definitely ‘old enough to remember’ while also being somewhat ‘blank’ as it related to NC [...]
