Tudor: Importance of Quarterbacks, II
Before the 2005 Football Season, Caulton Tudor crystalized NC State’s precarious situation at the quarterback position. You can see the quote here. In an article on Sunday following State’s victory over Maryland, Tudor followed up on his comments: …it’s difficult to hide an average quarterback, and it’s next to impossible to win championships without one.

Babe of the Year
Although I think that Packman may have had better candidates in this year’s candidate pool, these should do. Thought that you may want to vote for Babe of the Year.

Ole Miss […]

How sweet it was to experience such a wonderful weekend in Wolfpack Athletics!! Basketball: Let’s start on the hardwood since we’ve had plenty of time to discuss football. ===> See, that wasn’t so tough was it?

GMoronski on Saturday
One thing that I evidently missed when my cable box died this weekend was Mike Gmoronski’s continued chest thumping about his love for Herb Sendek and for where NC State’s basketball program belongs — below Duke.
