First Half Performance Paces Pack; NC State 85 Maryland 69
NC State played their best half of basketball since the first half of last year’s ACC Tournament Semi-Final against the very same Maryland Terrapins. Luckily for this installment of Wolfpack Basketball, the second half of this game didn’t yield the same result as last year when the Terps entered the record books with the largest […]
Terps’ Gilchrist Targets Pack
The Washington Times tried to preview Sunday’s State-Maryland game with a an article that I clicked to based on an incorrect assumption that the article would actually be somewhat related to its title – Terps’ Gilchrist Targets Pack. Stupid Me. This article is very poorly written and has absolutely no flow. Heck, the “Gilchrist” article […]
Catching On – Pack in Trouble
Only a couple of days after Greensboro’s News & Record ran an article titled Wolfpack has little to show on NCAA Resume. Today, it looks like Technician and The News & Observer are catching on to the picture that I have been trying to paint on the Blog and elsewhere for a couple of weeks […]
Quote of Note: Ned Barnett on Sendek
But what’s happening with State — and what lies ahead — isn’t about a roster. It’s about a team and its coach. Herb Sendek has shown himself a master of getting more from less by stressing defense and a ball-control offense. That approach worked so well last season that he was voted ACC coach of […]
Sendek, Fowler issue statements of support for each other
The two men spoke highly of one another in their statements, which were released to the press mere minutes apart and apparently without knowledge of the other.

I Hate Wednesdays
I hope JB doesn’t mind if I post a separate rant. But after such a great football/basketball combo weekend, I guess things naturally had to get worse. Of course, it happened on a Wednesday. Wednesday has always been a bad luck day for me. Nothing seems to go right, a fact that I took special […]
RPI Never “Meaningless”; State’s Win Fails to Move Needle
NC State’s win over #8 ranked Georgia Tech doesn’t seem to have mathematically done much for the Wolfpack’s quest to get back on the radar of the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee. Heading into Sunday’s agame, State’s RPI was a paltry #115 and Georgia Tech’s was in the Top 15. After the evening, State’s RPI improved […]
Quote of Note: Andrew Brackman
In the January 14, 2005 edition of The Sporting News, “Scouts Views” commented: NC State’s Andrew Brackman is emerging as a standout freshman forward in the ACC. He’s grown at least 2 inches since this time last year and has added pounds. Given NC State’s structured system and the fact Brackman came from a regimented […]
