I was listening to Sporting News Radio (on my beloved XM radio) this morning on the way to work. The morning guys were talking college football with Matt Hayes, and I was surprised to hear him talk at some length about NC State.

TV Schedule
For the second week in a row, VPI highlights the TV schedule. This time though, it’s Miami who’s heading into Blacksburg, and they’re doing it as an underdog.

I don’t care what Eric Hyman or the rest of the country thinks…the Pirates still demand attention out there!!! […]
Hodge Forgets NCSpin & Fails to Make Opening Roster
Maybe we should cool the talk about Julius Hodge becoming Herb Sendek’s first player (to leave the NC State program on good terms) to play in the National Basketball Association until it actually happens. Although it is sure to happen at some point, the rookie drafted twentieth overall by the Denver Nuggets has failed to […]
