Saw this first on Backing the Pack so I must give credit there. The following article, from Inside the Colorado Rockies, discusses the signing and what the next step will be for Russell. It looks like he’s going to have quite a busy summer. The key word in the entire release from the web site […]

AD search narrows, six left standing
Obviously there is much more to this story than the reports out tonight, but tonight’s development is still worth discussing, even if it’s briefly. Multiple sources confirmed to Jeff Graveley (WRAL) and others Wednesday that the list of possible AD candidates has been narrowed to six. Nevermind the fact that Chancellor Woodson asked for three […]

Crime Pays Best in College Athletics
The NCAA cites USC for a loss of institutional control, and once again you’re reminded that there’s no segment of American life in which crime pays quite as well as big-time amateur athletics. Video: Dee discusses USC violations No incentive not to cheat in college athletics Everything below this line is quoted from the previously […]
ACC’s expansion plan isn’t much of a plan
“Opportunities never come to those who wait. They are captured by those who dare to attack.” This quote pretty much sums up what the ACC is doing right now with regards to expansion. A whole lot of nothing. It’s a shame too, because I definitely think the ACC has — or maybe had — the […]

In a followup to the Ken Tysiac story from the weekend where the Observers’ headline writer claimed that 29 emails made the difference in the status of Lee Fowler’s job, former Technician sports editor and sometime NC State blogger Jim Pomeranz makes sense of it all and injects some much-needed reality: In reality, the idea […]
Big Fowler Article in the Sunday Observers; headline contradicts information in article
Both the Charlotte Observer and Raleigh’s News & Observer ran a large featured article this morning titled – Fowler’s exit from NC State linked to emails. There is SO MUCH here that I don’t have time to start before heading to church! But, we just had to link it and get the conversation started. (Actually…true […]
So This Is the Way Baseball Season Ends…
…not with a bang, but a whimper. That said, I still tip my cap to the team for a compelling ACC run. You have to imagine that the Pack Nine were physically and emotionally drained after that. And this was always a flawed team, just one that had a well-timed hot streak late. Omaha was […]
