Any time NC State can beat Jeff Lebo it can’t help but feel just a little better than any other win!!
You REALLY have to give Coach Lowe and the Wolfpack a lot of credit for coming from behind to beat Auburn, 60-58, when Tracy Smith rebounded and put back a Julius Mays miss from the [...]

Anyone who cares anymore is thoroughly embarrassed (again) after Saturday’s egg laying exercise in Blacksburg; the problem is that fewer and fewer people actually care anymore about something that is so irrelevant.

Some of the comments on the recent Monday Morning entry got me to thinking about the possible effects of our lack of athletic success on the university as a whole. I have to believe that athletics is a big component of the marketing and identity of a university (and you can make a fair [...]

Joseph Uchebo, a class of 2012 prospect, apparently has committed to NC State.
Earlier in that game, swingman Jay Canty, the former Ragsdale star and recent Xavier signee, sprained his ankle. Two days prior, Joseph Uchebo, the Cadets’ 7-foot, N.C. State-bound Nigerian center, also rolled ...

Kind of sad when the guy that used to cover NC State for Pack Pride says that he was just on Tobacco Road and got to see UNC play and Duke and Wake practice. (cough, cough)

A new study from Ohio State shows that sports fans actually have more fun watching games when they feel negative towards their team’s prospects. Seriously. And no, I didn’t find this on The Onion website.

Interesting comments from Russell about wanting to be a baseball player and a quarterback. I have even heard one story that suggests he could turn pro in baseball, pay his own way to school, and play college football next year here at NC State. That may not be realistic, but the story was [...]
