    I am like 90% sure this wasn’t an intentional leak… I thought it may be intentional as well at first, but the “rabble rousing” from the “lunatic fringe” for a couple weeks shouldn’t be enough to get this out there.

    So State gets a third NC with a lame duck coach. AWKWARD! But very much NC State.

    Well, it takes it down a notch. You get pasted by 30 by everyone and people are rightly pissed that take these things seriously. I don’t see a downside except the media talks. They will talk either way. Mark has to answer tough questions, but that is happening, and who cares, it’s his fault anyway.

    We deny, deny, deny, then he’s gone after ACC tourney.

    If he’s been told he’s fired, he’s fired.
    I stand by the headline.

    EDIT – Greywolf we kinda overlapped in time/post there. This was not in response to you FWIW.

    If he’s fired, let him walk and finish with an interim.

    We shall see, now that the cat is out of the bag. I’m just glad to have any kind of head start on the process.

    I’m sure Mark will resurface at middle Arkansas state or some similar place.

    Mid Last week… you may remember, it was suggested here that it might be time to take this “process” to the next level and let other people, outside the family, to start doing the Big Talking…

    Hello Mark Armstrong… you took the bait…

    Then, while it’s true those at the bottom of the information food chain are always WEEKS, if not MONTHS behind the curve, that doesn’t mean those are bottom are idiots… and can’t read your desk upside down…. so put a little more wood on the fire with a plausible story and listen to the old tree…

    This sh#t ain’t really hard to figure out, you know…

    This is a Done Deal… one way or the other, clean cut or ugly gash….

    Anything coming out of the University until after the Tournament, is official blah, blah, blah according to the gentleman’s rules of conduct specified in the deal…. and Coach can’t say sh#t or lose millions…

    Just kicking back… McCallum…
    How ’bout you?
    POP!!!

    I honor of State’s stoopity as well as its inability to do a single damn thing right I am going to stop eating these shoes until a later date.

    How can any place do things so consistently inconsistent.

    This was done by the DY haters to cripple the coaching search

    MBB Spring Training starts this week, you know…

    Reminds of that good ole boy from up around Williamston… the Hall of Fame Spitter… Gaylord Perry….

    The Story goes when he got to Cooperstown, one, well-educated, New York sports writer asked Gaylord “how he did it… what it took to get to the Baseball Hall of Fame?”

    In a fine eastern North Carolina farmer drawl, he dropped his head a bit, grinned and mumbled…

    Ya’ll just got to know when to put a little extra on… and when to take a little off.

    … which I consider to be one of the finer life lessons one can learn on the diamond… and which I also, somehow, find in a backa## kind of way applicable to the current state of affairs surrounding the morass we call Wolfpack Basketball….

    I’m just glad to be sitting under the tree….
    POP!!!

    Leaks always happen, there were leaks in Obama’s and Trump’s White House. I don’t see any down side to any of this. Its standard procedure.

    OK…logic should be used here…but rarely. Personal take on this….and CD and others that have some inside knowledge should chime in.

    Fact…The decision WAS made this weekend to fire him. NOW, as the execution (Bad choice), that is multi-faceted. IF he has publicly (not for us but observed by folks in the inner circle), been out carrousing or hitting the bars or whatever, then DY DOES have some ammo for a “settlement”. NO IDEA if she has CURRENT, as she should have used his issues to pull the pin two years ago. There was ENOUGH then for his “morals” clause. BUT, now, it might just be…”Pay UP and Don’t Gripe”. Yow is NOT one to give up on any negotiation edge. SO, there WILL be some negotiating…my bets on Yow.

    Fact….the team was NOT told about this. It would be so TOTALLY DUMB (not professional) to bring in the team and say….We fired him. Don’t TELL ANYBODY. Like a bunch of 20 YO’s can keep a secret in today’s “post everytime you f@rt” social media. It would NEVER happen that way…..UNLESS you were planning on yanking him and putting in an interim. SO, all the speculation about the leak coming from the team…THAT would only happen IF Gottfried (or an assistant) HAD been told and he, in pure despair and desperation, blurted it all out. He does NOT strike me as the type that would do that.

    NOW, did AD Yow meet with him and they DISCUSSED what was going to happen? I don’t KNOW. She MAY have told him that it was over. She may have hinted at some compromise on the buyout. HE may have discussed it with someone…..and in a TOTALLY Bizarre, scenario, HE IS the source to stop all the “negotiations” and hang with his contract. THAT is PURE speculation….as others have also done. I don’t doubt for a minute that HE could be the REAL instigator of the LEAK….

    There have been a LOT of posts about the Team’s Psyche and also whether the team had ANY respect for him personally or perhaps his staff. I can believe that. The last blow-up with Anya, did not, I THINK, gain him any points with the team. The TEAM DOES seem to have thrown in the towel….not totally, but certainly not going out and “winning one for the Gipper”.

    FACT…I sold my 4 Champions LTR’s this AM. I saw seats all around me on CL. I decided that I did NOT want to go to a game where the bulk of the fans were well heeled (and the prices were considerably MORE than face) UNC fans chanting and making a show. That happened in the Cuse game, prior to their addmittance. There were minor skirmishes and some of the fans were actually called by Bobby Purcell and admonished for selling their tickets. I had ONE person apologize to me and my family as he did not realize how rowdy some of his family had gotten until the calls started coming in. THAT is a real shame….but it is a FACT. I will be at the ND and UVA game to support the team….but UNC…NOPE.

    The scenario is not playing out like a carefully planned event…..quite the contrary. BUT, one way or the other, the deed has (will, shall?) been done. What happens and who we get? THAT will consume more bandwidth than HB2 repeal…

    I am NOT betting a fifth of Crown Black on Archie. BUT, I will tell you, when WHOMEVER is introduced, DY will say, smiling, HE (FIB) was our TARGET all along and we GOTT the man we set out to get and he will make us a TOP 25 program.
