In our “On the Record” entries we ask that you go “on the record” regarding certain topics and questions. We haven’t had time to give the NFL draft much coverage in the last couple of weeks. In this time period, Mario Williams’ stock has shot through the roof as evidenced by the fact that the […]
Fowler & Hire Inevitably Linked
Caulton Tudor weighed-in with more of his astute commentary related to the Wolfpack’s search for a basketball coach this moring. Link here. Additionally, I shared some comments that dovetail with the focus of Tudor’s comments earlier today. Selected excerpts from Tudor’s, “Hire will reflect on Fowler” are included below: Since landing the job in September […]
Why Hasn’t Jamie Dixon Been Called?
Yesterday’s quick coaching conversation. I was speaking with a friend last night and we were trying to save the Wolfpack world.

Tom Sorensen’s opinion is pretty lame in his attempt to be cute. He also obviously has […]
InfoPack: Ten Years Ago Today
In the middle of LAST YEAR’S NCAA Tournament, my wife and I moved into a new house. During our move… I came across a bunch of old “State stuff” in some boxes that had been taped up and not opened in years. My curiousity got the best of me so I ripped into one of […]
Holland: State’s Job Considered Good
Terry Holland has quickly grown to one of my favorite people in all of college athletics. We highlighted this quote for you a couple of weeks ago, and today we want to draw attention to something else from Terry. I don’t think that we have linked to our friends over at The Red & White […]
Why You Need to Be FIRED UP!
Finally! Someone in the media writes a home run piece discussing reality!! And, it ended up being a self-proclaimed Tarheel? We’ll take any dose of reality that we can get. Thank, you Matt Rehm. Today’s piece on CBS Sportsline (not written by Gregg Doyel; Don’t Feed the Troll) is a a great read. Some Wolfpackers […]
