    Nice to turn the corner after a rough stretch since the end of the season.
    The kid is Slim Dunkin on Twitter, how cool is that?
    He can ball, and he’s got a sense of humor.

    I believe we have his nickname. Nice

    Nice to battle with calipari and UK and come away a winner.

    Great job by the staff on this one. It will be interesting to see how this plays out and how it impacts the Martin twins. As I indicated in the other post, that’s the only potential drawback I see here. We need ballers though – and if he plays hard and is skilled, he will definitely contribute.

    It’s a relief to see some good roster news for a change. Kid looks like he’s got a chance to be much more of an impact player in Raleigh than in Lexington.

    I think the title of this thread is inaccurate,demeaning and totally non-stellar. Kirk never de-committed so how could he possibly re-commit?

    I demand a change.

    I thought at first the title must have been response to the uproar of the other title, but maybe not?

    Agree with AsheWolf, though. He never de-committed, so it is really a bit disrespectful to Kirk saying he “recommitted”. That implies he decommitted. I never once heard that he decommitted. I heard that he was going to “listen” to Calipari. That is not decommitting.

    Regardless, a better title now would be “Shaun Kirk signs LOI to run with the Pack”.

    By the way, sounds like a solid pickup.

    Welcome, Mr. Kirk!

    When y’all’s coach can figure out a way to successfully motivate kids to give it 100% every game then I’ll be so quick to take up for him like most of you. Glad the kid stayed with us, I am excited for that.

    Welcome aboard Mr. Kirk! You’ll get playing time here.

    Effort has very, VERY rarely been a problem for us in the MG era, and it never was last year (with the possible exception of the Cincy game, which earned an even rarer public scolding and the “no defense, no minutes” mantra that signed Angel of Death’s ticket out of town).

    Expectations of 100% effort is what’s wrong with kids today and it’s why we can’t have nice things. 100% is good but 110% would be stellar.

    I thought our guys played their guts out a lot.

    With exception of year 2…?I agree on the effort part.

    Get over the 20 years prior to Gott. 4 straight NCAA’s and 2 Sweet 16’s in his first 4 years here. That’s rare air for any coach. He deserves our respect. He is doing a good job!

    That Great News for the Pack! Pack fans should note if it good news about the Pack you won’t find on the ACC Sports Journal, of course when Krik was thinking about KY, they had that up in seconds. David Glen is Baby Blue loving Tar Heel fan, that hates the Wolfpack. He started out as “The Poop” and he still full of crap! No fan of any ACC team outside of Chapel Hill should support anything Glen associated with!

    The fact that MG got ANYTHING out of that headcase second year team is amazing in retrospect. I think it was a great learning experience for the staff in ego/crisis management.

    With this core eight, I think a Top 4 conference finish is a reasonable goal, and winning the conference tourney and/or making the final four is not outside the realm of possibility.

    Work on your cardio, Cat. You shall play 38+ a night.

    Getting a solid combo guard ready to play would be huge.

    With the current lineup we’re still extremely susceptible to injury/foul trouble bug. Great core of players but I think that combo guard is the difference between a team that competes for a national title and a sweet 16.

    State would have had a third chance at an elite eight slot if we didn’t let little fat Billikens roll the ball to mid court. We all want more than sweet 16s. Break on Through to the Other Side, Gott.

    BJD95…with all due respect, I sincerely mean that as I thoroughly enjoy your posts…..EFFORT is RARELY a problem??? I don’t understand how we get skull fu*ked by Clemson and Wake at home, constantly come out looking disinterested yet effort is not a problem. Anyway….

    I saw an interview yesterday on the news and Kirk was very polite and seems like a good kid. Glad he loves to play hard; we like to win and playing hard is not negotiable. Our teams generally don’t get out worked. He will be a great addition to the Pack.

    Alright, we just got a solid player.

    Wait, Kentucky wants him too? And they offered? Oh, brother…

    Are you telling me this kid turned down Kentucky and signed his LOI with NCSU? BOOM!!!

    I really like the players on our team. I like their stories.
