The News & Observer has this article today that comes on the heels of Debbie Yow’s local radio appearance earlier in the week. This link is most definitely a pre-requisite to today’s article as the two entries fit together like hand and glove. In her first year as N.C. State’s athletic director, she’s focused on […]

Debbie Yow interview on Sidney Lowe and other topics
NCSU AD Debbie Yow today was interviewed on 99.9 ESPN Radio by Adam Gold and Joe Ovies. Several topics were discussed, most notably the men’s basketball program and the head coach, Sidney Lowe.

Benchmark Sidney Lowe: Can He Recover?
If nothing else, this should be therapeutic for NC State fans after last night’s 75-66 loss to Boston College. Sidney Lowe finds himself in mid-season at 11-5.  This isn’t necessarily a terrible record (well… it is sort of) unless you consider that our largest winning streak has been a 5-win streak over teams with mostly RPIs of […]
Happy New Year! After a Surprisingly Good Wolfpack 2010
Well, we only have about 5 hours left in 2010, at least in NC State’s (and my) home time zone. This isn’t going to be a long “recap” post, but I do think we should spend a few moments reflecting on the first steps we took towards ending our 2+ decades of wandering in the […]

NCSU Football Needs an Indoor Practice Center
It’s finally raining in the deserts of Raleigh once again. That’s good news for homeowners, some who depend of wells for water for their homes, others who are trying to care for parched grass, for farmers tending dusty fields, and for nearly everyone. We’ve needed this rain for a long time. Unfortunately, however, it comes […]
NC State Ticket Office Gives Additional Tickets To Students
If Carter-Finley is a little louder tomorrow night, Wolfpack fans can thank the NC State ticket office. That’s because there will be students rather than visitors in Sections 31 and 320 of the stadium, an area nominally reserved for visitors. This will mean that student Wolfpack fans will be filling otherwise empty chairs and lending […]
