Here is a quote that I haven’t seen anywhere but here. Sunday, March 19, 2006’s Charlotte Observer included a side panel for the “NCAA at Dallas” written by staff writer, David Scott. In the side panel, the Charlotte Observer included the following: “I’m sorry, but I would have to call them an idiot” * NC […]
Kelvin Sampson To Indiana
Shocker. Indiana is going to hire Kelvin Sampson. It is amazing that someone of Sampson’s stature “would want to coach” at Indiana, since they fired a coach who went to the NCAA Tournament this season, and had made a Final Four. I guess we can be thankful that they didn’t hire John Calipari.
What Would Warren Buffet Say About Sendek/State?
I am reading a book entitled “The Warren Buffett Wayâ€? by Robert G Hagstrom Jr. Warren Buffett is the greatest investor in the history of the stock market. I firmly believe to be the best, you learn from the best and so I am currently learning from the best investor ever. I have learned Buffett […]
Cut Lee Off – Help Your SCHOOL
With all our hysteria about continuing athletic mediocrity and inept athletic leadership at our alma mater, we sometimes forget that that we graduated from North Carolina State University. And NC State is not a football team or a basketball team, but an institution of higher learning. It is, in short, your school. So, if you […]
OOC Strength of Schedule
This is not going to be the most exciting entry you’ve ever read here. We have discussed State’s miserable OOC schedule for several months now…so I don’t think that there are many surprises coming to those that have been with us all season long. All that is left is to do is to document just […]
Sendek’s Focus vs Recent Hires
Mick Cronin hired at Cincinnati. From CBS Sportsline “I’m here to win,” Mike Anderson hired at Missouri. From Kansas City Star: “My goal is to win the national championship,â€? Anderson said. “I want to win the big one. I can get it done here. I can get it done.â€? Anderson — the first black coach […]
So What Is Your Take on Football This Year
Chuck Amato held a press conferenceon Friday. I didn’t see anything very newsworthy. The Greensboro News & Record says that “Stone lodged atop quarterback depth chart“, but who else would it be? The following is a link to NC State’s 2006 Football Schedule and a previous conversation. Have you made any observations during spring practice […]
Congratulations to the Final Four
As college basketball has grown in popularity over the last 25 years, it seems to me that the attention given to the various success levels (Sweet 16, Elite 8, etc) has grown dramatically…and none have become more celebrated than the Final Four. So I would like to extend my congratulations to the last four teams […]
Glad George Mason Won? You Can Thank Me
Every instant I watched the early game today, UConn dominated. Every time I turned the channel or was called away for an errand, Mason stormed back. Finally, with about 11 minutes left and Mason up three, I decided to take one for the “team” (in this instance, the 99% of red-blooded Americans who love the […]
Tudor: State is Fine with Sendek Being Good, Not Great
We will leave the comments to Tudor, as he continues to hit home runs related to the Herb Sendek situation at NC State. Today’s beauty is akin to Tom Sorenesen’s piece last week that was discussed here. If you haven’t seen Tudor’s previous gem from a couple of weeks ago, click here. The prevailing question […]
