In the side panel, the Charlotte Observer included the following: “I’m sorry, but I would have to call them an idiot” * NC […]
Fowler’s Comments, One Year Ago
I’ve been holding onto this entry for a year. I never had the opportunity to finish them off, so I decided to wait to our one-year anniversary. One year ago this weekend, NC State was participating in our first Sweet 16 in sixteen years. On the NC State pre-game radio show (pre-Wolfpack’s embarassing egg-laying against […]
Blue Devils Re-learn Annual Lesson
Duke re-learned the same lesson that they learn almost every year in March — referees from outside the ACC call better ball games and the coddling that the Blue Devils get throughout the regular season is not good for them come NCAA Tournament time. It’s a lesson that Carolina learned last weeked when Tyler Hansbrough […]
“Next Year”
With 16 teams still playing in the 2005-2006 college basketball season, many fans of the schools not playing are turning to turn their attention to “next season”.

Bubble Coach is Good Enough For NC State
Tom Sorensen from the Charlotte Observer in today’s article: We hear about bubble teams. N.C. State’s Herb Sendek is a bubble coach. He’s too good to fire but he’s not good enough to fire up fans. He has a winning record but he can’t beat Duke or North Carolina. He always gets to the NCAA […]
