Wolfpack Baseball (22-18, 7-14 ACC, 5th Atlantic) welcomes the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets to Raleigh this weekend. Week in Review Not really much to say. BC came to Raleigh last weekend and took what little candy the Pack had left, taking 2 of 3 and winning their lone ACC series thus far in ’14. Tuesday, […]

Weekend Baseball: BC Comes to Town
Wolfpack Baseball (20-15, 6-12 ACC, 5th Atlantic) kicks off its longest homestand of the season (4/18 thru 5/12, 15 games) this weekend as they welcome Boston College to the Doak for a 3 game series.

Gottfried’s Wolfpack will have work cut out for them next year
While I expect next year’s version Mark Gottfried’s NC State Basketball to be pretty good, the Wolfpack isn’t going to have an easy path to returning to the upper half of the ACC and a fourth consecutive appearance in the NCAA Tournament. As I’ve looked around the projected landscape of college basketball in 2014-2015 (link […]

Parity in College Basketball
During one of the studio sessions this past season ESPN posed the question, “Have the mid-major schools reached parity with larger schools?” to Digger and Bilas. Digger chose to argue for parity using Butler and Wichita State as proof. Bilas argued against mostly by saying that parity required more than just two examples. The time […]
