OK folks. It was leaked. It was confirmed. Change is coming, but not until after the season. Oh, and you can go ahead and plan on hearing this sort

Maybe it was the thing to do or maybe not. I think we all knew Gott would not be back for the next season. I’m willing to let this play out. Let the talking heads explode with rancor.
02/18/2017 at 10:54 AM #118217easParticipantI think we beat ND today because that’s just what we do. I hope no boo birds are there for Gott. It’s a done deal and we are going to move on. Show him respect for what he has done and give him a hand. I’m glad he’s not moving forward with us but I am appreciative of his efforts.
02/18/2017 at 11:35 AM #118218AdventurooParticipantThis pretty well sums up where we are headed. I feel much better (and that took a lot) after reading this.
Debbie Yow will not let us down. We tend to forget all the GW noise during our last search and the fact that Shaka’s wife was the wildcard and killed the deal. BTW, he is now 9 (out of 10 in the Big12) this year….and was supposed to be Number 2, according to ONE pre-season press poll….only behind Kansas. SO, all in all, I think we were, for the first 4 years, better off with Gottfried.
Here is an interview that really defines the lady and her approach.
https://ncstate.rivals.com/news/q-a-debbie-yow-exclusively-breaks-down-coaching-search
In some cases, she is a “Trump” personality with more polish and savvy….
If we keep it closer than 10 points today, that will be a real victory for the team….and also maybe to Gottfried. Just a whole lot TOO LATE…
If we win 2 of the last 5, it will really surprise me….but if he pulls a Jimmy V and motivates them and they do well….wonder if we could salvage an NIT and WOULD WE TAKE IT?
Chew on that one for a while…Let the ND game begin. Mike Brey is a K underling….so maybe we can use the magic that we used on Capel to frustrate and befuddle them….they escaped recently and will probably come out like the GS Warriors and set NEW records for the PNC…lets HOPE NOT…
Anybody that bets on this game probably would bet on an instant replay….
02/18/2017 at 11:47 AM #118220bill.onthebeachParticipantThe only way, I think, we’ll hear the boo-birds today is if the kids play selfish and lackadaisical …
Regardless of all our faults, real and imagined, that’s just NOT who State Fans are.
Now, Coach has borne the brunt of this season’s sh#tstorm…
BUT these kids still GOTT something to prove to themselves…SO maybe, just maybe….
GO PACK!!!
#NCSU-North Carolina's #1 FOOTBALL school!02/18/2017 at 11:59 AM #118221Fastback68ParticipantBrey’s son is the new football coach at AK high school which was a ghost town yesterday when graffiti listed a school shooting for 2/17. We live in a strange world. Gott playing the role of honorable John Fox and I appreciate it. Wish the Pack had indoor hurricane winds for this one. Another football time slot.
02/18/2017 at 12:00 PM #118222bill.onthebeachParticipantHow does a 6’5″ center (B. Colson – ND) average 10.5 rebounds a game ???
ANYA, Abu and Y7 want to know….
stay tuned guys, your lesson is getting ready to start…
#NCSU-North Carolina's #1 FOOTBALL school!02/18/2017 at 12:01 PM #118223bill.onthebeachParticipantEanes, Hull and Simpson is stripes in the PNC this afternoon….
#NCSU-North Carolina's #1 FOOTBALL school!02/18/2017 at 12:01 PM #118224Fastback68ParticipantAnya laughing at gotts pre game speech.
02/18/2017 at 12:03 PM #118225BJD95KeymasterESPN showed MG’s pre-game talk. It was very, very weird.
We look exactly the same as we have been.
02/18/2017 at 12:04 PM #118226WufpackerParticipantNo energy.
Not surprising.02/18/2017 at 12:05 PM #118227tractor57ParticipantI hope DSJ leaves – I’m not in the habit of calling out players but he needs to go.
02/18/2017 at 12:06 PM #118228WufpackerParticipantOK, I was really hoping that Gott firing (and the weirdness of it in general) wouldn’t be the storyline today.
Should have known better.02/18/2017 at 12:06 PM #118229McCallumParticipantI think we beat ND today because that’s just what we do.
You moved up from Elmers to stronger stuff.
McCallum
02/18/2017 at 12:07 PM #118230bill.onthebeachParticipantain’t gonna happen, but…. I hope Mr. Smith sticks around and learns how to play basketball and point guard…
#NCSU-North Carolina's #1 FOOTBALL school!02/18/2017 at 12:09 PM #118231BJD95KeymasterDSJ isn’t the problem. DSJ having no rules applied to him is probably about 40-50% of the problem, or at least the most obvious manifestation of the problem.
02/18/2017 at 12:13 PM #118232BJD95KeymasterHicks showing why he ain’t played much.
02/18/2017 at 12:15 PM #118233BJD95KeymasterTwo nice plays in a row by Tall Atsur.
02/18/2017 at 12:17 PM #118234BJD95KeymasterMake it three!
/enjoys talking to self
02/18/2017 at 12:17 PM #118235Fastback68ParticipantThe obligatory half court pass/to.
02/18/2017 at 12:19 PM #118236tractor57ParticipantDSJ needs to go for both him and for the team.
02/18/2017 at 12:21 PM #118237BJD95KeymasterDoris Burke rightly points out Irish look tired/off to excuse their only being up 6.
02/18/2017 at 12:22 PM #118238Fastback68ParticipantSet for life with guaranteed money if indeed drafted high in 1st round.
02/18/2017 at 12:23 PM #118239AdventurooParticipantToday’s storyline, per the ESPN Fraternity (even the female’s) is POOR OLE GOTT….he was DONE WRONG….
Notice that Gottfried is wearing his light blue shirt. Half or more of the “suits” on our bench have light blue shirts.
No offense to my old “index”, it is telling that none of our coaches really “got it”. Lutz was the only one…and where is he now?
02/18/2017 at 12:24 PM #118240TexpackParticipantYank that effing b**** off the air!
