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. Then I read this, and you should as well: Prepare to be disgusted. Horrific doesn’t even begin to describe [...]
SoCar Coach Says He Games Recruiting Rankings
Brad Lawing, the South Carolina defensive line coach and former UNC-CH recruiting coordinator, says that recruiting rankings and sites are a scam. “I can take a three-star and make him a four-star, and I can take a four-star and make him a three- or two-star with the contacts I have. That’s how ridiculous recruiting on [...]
South Carolina Football Continues To Be a Soap Opera
NC State opens this year against South Carolina, in a game that may well set the tone for the early part of the year: get a win against an SEC opponent to open the season, and the Wolfpack has set the table to possibly go 6-0 in their first half of the year. That in [...]

That said, you are about to witness a major challenge – Tom O’Brien is bringing a knife to a gunfight (thank God he’s a Marine). But we’ll be watching and hoping anyway. Set your baseline appropriately – as long [...]
Hoping to keep the dominance alive
The last time that NC State and South Carolina played each other in football, the Wolfpack won. The last time that NC State and South Carolina played each other in basketball, the Wolfpack won. The last time that NC State and South Carolina played each other in baseball, the Wolfpack won. Tonight the Wolfpack tries [...]

Quick Hitters from Around the Region
Last night, the 11 pm ESPN ticker had a wealth of one-liners of general interest. Here are the ones that caught my attention and a few more that I’ve run across today: 1) Beecher hopes to stick as Gamecocks QB Although Beecher, a junior with the highest grade-point average on South Carolina’s roster, might make [...]
