Good for TJ. Because of his emotional connection to WolfpackNation and his fantastic play he will go down as a fan favorite. Heck, in today’s ‘new world’ of college basketball he may end up as the most popular two-year player in NC State history to leave the program early. To compete for the honor of […]
A nice event summarized here in Technician. (Thank goodness they weren’t trying to write about sports). Woodson said when he arrived at N.C. State after working in various capacities at Purdue University for more than 25 years, he said he knew this university was “world class and had real strengths,” but said he saw it […]
Let the depositions and risk of perjury begin! Link The Student Athletes Human Rights Project filed a complaint Friday with the federal Office for Civil Rights alleging the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill discriminated against male athletes, especially black, male athletes, in assigning more of them to so-called ‘paper classes.’ In directing athletes […]
Tyler Lewis transfers to a mid-major who lost its coach last year (who pretty clearly saw the writing on the wall, talent-wise), and finished 14-17 last season.

State and a former coach of the Charlotte 49ers, has emerged as the leading candidate to become Appalachian State’s next coach, the Observer has learned. […]
I couldn’t pick the best quote for the headline here. You tell me which one you liked the best — “To keep winning and to keep these athletes eligible, we had to do something, and so, we cheated.” – Mary Willingham “First one that actually told us [about the paper classes] was our […]
Loved this tweet yesterday after Carolina let a win slip through its fingers — The most anti-climactic finish in NCAA Tournament history. Barring all the wins that have been vacated due to NCAA violations, of course. — Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) March 23, 2014 On that topic, more media attention is on its way to Chapel […]
The Big Four fails to send team to Sweet 16 for first time since Black Sunday happened in 1979! Wow. Good news is that Virginia advanced to keep the ACC’s streak of 35 straight years of having a S16 team. Link Tobacco Road hasn’t seen a springtime drought like this in more than three decades. […]
