    so if he’s going to fired at the end of the season i image this was not supposed to get out. absolutely no reason not to go the interim route maybe they can make a run with the monkey off their back.

    either was leaked or “leaked” intentionally.. but clearly not supposed to be a clear cut mid season public firing

    Agreed. I promise you the SFN braintrust is pooling their resources to learn everything (ie gossiping like hens).

    Was this just a tweet by an ABC11.com writer? Because I don’t see it on their website (guess that’s why ppl are calling it a “leak”).

    Debbie Yow balls are big as hell! Let’s give her the benefit of the doubt on this one.

    Bulls#it….State can’t even get a firing right.

    A freakin’ sports news anchor has to bring the word…From multiple sources?

    Not crashing on ya AT. Crashing on everyone doin’ backflips over a piss poor managing of releases.

    absolutely NO inside info or any sources that are not on the “highly trusted” INTERNET. However, as posted yesterday, Debbie Yow was NOT at the VT-NCSU game. She rarely misses an appearance there, sometimes for just a brief first half, but she is always there and is at the table on the baseline of the Team’s side….with FULL eyecontact from team and coaches.

    Michael Lipitz, her second in command was at the game.

    What does this mean? Absolutely nothing, but it was “telling” and many of the regular Ladies fans noted her absense…

    Time will tell….Time will TELL…

    There is NO truth to the rumor that he will join Roy (Ray?) Cooper’s staff and help lobby for the complete abolishment of HB2 and also for unisex dressing rooms in NC for all NCAA sports to show that we bear have NO discrimination towards members of the “physically opposite” sex that want to dress, shower and participate in team activities based on their gender identity (at any moment in time and subject to fluxuation).

    Let the Flight Tracker sniffing begin. Murphy has pulled PIG 1 out of the Data Base and his kids or brother got rid of their toy.

    Agreed after thinking further. It’s not pretty the way things have gone down right now.

    there could be reasons it leaked today but still not handled great. MG should not be on the sideline in 48 hours, period.

    It is a sad day when I have to acknowledge that this board had become just as stupid as Packpride. But then, most of you can’t figure it out or distinguish what I’m saying…

    How much longer do we put up with the BS “upline” or do we just fold the freakin’ tent!

    Hodge, Burleson, hell, you couldn’t bring back Case, Sloan,and V to put up with the nonsense!

    While I think this is the move that has to be made, we’ll see in a few days or weeks. I’m not counting any chickens.

    I’m not a fan of an interim in this instance. Interims have the potential to go on a little run and make everyone think there’s something there. That’s okay if many things are right with the program (I argued for an interim of Kitchings if we were making a move on DD) because I actually think much is right with the football program but much is wrong with the head man’s baffling in game decisions. In basketball, there’s currently nothing right with the program from a coaching element outside of S&C. We don’t need any Fool’s Gold.

    There is nothing to be gained except perhaps the interim coach has the competence to develop the players’ fundamentals. Since there is nowhere to go but up I say there is nothing to lose (except the buyout would be a bit larger) to pull the bandaid off immediately.

    Why would say he will fired at the END OF THE SEASON? Either fire him now and let him go or wait until the season ends? Make no mistake, he needs to be fired but why do you set it up this way? Just curious….

    I feel like this is a done deal.. no other sources than abc11… but it adds up. It’ll be an “interesting” remainder of the season.

    Wonder if the players leaked? From what I gather, with BJ in the dog house for whatever, it’s not a stretch. Complete speculation, of course. Sorry for not being 100% diplomatic with my speculation.

    well, obviously it wasn’t “set up this way”… with NCSU denying these rumors.

    We can’t have it both ways. Just the other day we were speculating that Gott staying would kill recruiting. It could actually help recruiting.

    With the right guy, it also could be good for keeping what we have.

    Hope noboday bought tickets for da plane or popped the bubbly. Its not on WTVD website because it didn’t happen. I think someone is jumping the gun on this post. I saw Mark Armstrong report at 6. No where DID he say Gott was fired. He said reports are Gott will be fired at season end. If you read DY email reply to my email to her, then anyone could say Gott could be fired at end of season as DY stated decision will be made at end of season in requards to Gotts future. He also said that Gott will be the head basketball coach till end of season. Nowhere did he imply Gott was fired today. Armstrong basically reported State fans have had enough of Gott and his antics. He showed snippet of Gott post game after Wake presser in which he said he plans to be at State for years to come. What happens will happen at end of season. Nothing new here…..move along.

    This IS new, and now that it has leaked, I don’t see how/why he would be on the sidelines Wednesday night.

    Pardon me while I start dining on these 1984 New Balance shoes I promised to eat if they canned him.

    Yes, good or bad, the leaking (heh) changes things. Or at least has the potential to.
