The Blog team has been out of pocket for the last couple of weeks but we expect to start being a little more active starting next week. We just wanted to thank those that had checked in on us to make sure that we were alright!
Athletics Season Over
NC State’s baseball team unfortunately joined the teams from Virginia and UNC-CH and was eliminated from the NCAA Baseball Tournament on Sunday. The Wolfpack lost two games over the weekend to lower-seeded Creighton. The Wolfpack ended the season 41-19. Quick Review * The highlight of this year’s season was easily the Wolfpack’s dramatic series with […]
Pack Falls; Sorry, ACC
Logged on to the internet this morning excited to learn how our Wolpack did in the NCAA Baseball Tournament this weekend…the news wasn’t good. Well, actually, at PackPride.com the news just didn’t exist. Which…of course…was how I knew that the Wolfpack lost. Similar to last week’s ACC Tournament where State won the first round game […]
June 2: We’re #50!!!!
The most recent NACDA Directors Cup rankings of College Athletics Programs were released today. (You may recognize the “Directors Cup” from its former identity of “Sears Cup”). The June 2, 2005 rankings have Lee Fowler’s NC State Athletics Department holding firm at an embarrassing, but not surprising #50. Fowler’s program has averaged finishing #46.5 in […]
Hodge Continues to Turn Heads
A couple of weeks ago we told you of Julius Hodge’s solid workout for the Los Angeles Clippers. Last week we told you of Hodge’s workout in New York City. Today, we turn your attention to DraftCity.com and ask that you scroll down to see some of the following comments regarding Julius: “Eric Lichter: Julius […]
Please, not Another Steve Francis!
Gary Williams and the University of Maryland has added one of the best Junior College players in the country to this season’s recruiting class. The Terps got a commitment from 6-foot-1, 175-pound, combo guard Parrish Brown from Chicago, Illinois. He averaged 22 points per game, five assists and five rebounds and was rated as a […]
State headed to Nebraska for NCAA
The NCAA Baseball Tournament field is set. The Wolfpack is headed to Nebraska as a #2 seed and has finished the regular season ranked #23 in the country. State has not hosted a regional at the newly renovated Doak Field, and any outside chance that the Pack was going to host this year was killed […]
State out of ACC Tournament
Another sport…another middle-of-the-ACC finish and no Tournament Championship for NC State…and so goes the Lee Fowler’s Athletic Department. GoPack.com recounts the Pack’s 5-4 loss and resulting elimination to Clemson in this year’s ACC Tournament. I had to link to GoPack since apparantly PackPride has devolved so deep into the pit of propoganda that they don’t […]
Amato Earns Top Marks Among ACC Coaches
Rating the Coaches – What the Players Think I ran across the website that is the source for this story a few days ago…but, I liked the commentary included in the FanBlogs entry to start with that. A direct comparison between John Bunting and Chuck Amato doesn’t look to good for the belly. Even more […]
Pitt added to State’s Future Fball Slate
Maybe I missed it – I was traveling a lot earlier this month – but, I just haven’t seen much made of this story on NC State websites despite its presence in the local media and discussions on internet Message Boards. As a part of the ACC and Big East’s lawsuit settlement, the Pitt Panthers […]
