  • Red and White Game Thoughts

    Posted by Evan on April 15, 2007

    here are my thoughts on the Red and White Spring game.
    Passing Game - QBs Daniel Evans looked like the guy to beat. Seemed in more control of the offense and was able to hit a lot of the short passes. Obviously struggled with the deeper outs but everything seemed to flow with him [...]

    Posted by Evan on April 8, 2007

    Interesting article from Scout.com that talks about the top 25 QB battles this spring. Something I didn’t realize is that 7 of the 12 ACC teams will have unsettled QB situations. Here’s what they said about NC State

    20. NC State – Marcus Stone began 2006 as the starter, but he’s now a tight end, [...]

  • Engin Atsur, I’m Gonna Miss ya!

    Posted by Evan on March 21, 2007

    Last night ended a great run at the end of the season for the NC State hoops team but more significantly it marked the end of a brilliant career. Engin Atsur played his final college basketball game last night as the Pack lost a heart breaker to a scrappy West Va. team. [...]

    Posted by Evan on March 13, 2007

  • 2007 ACC Championship Thoughts

    Posted by Evan on March 11, 2007

    Moral victories suck.
    No surprise UNC had more free throw attempts but when was the last time UNC shot 99% from the free throw line?
    The Pack gave the Heels everything they could handle and then some. It was at least comforting to see us actually get beat rather than beat ourselves.

    Posted by Evan on February 15, 2007

    No this isn’t about the loss to Maryland last night, its about tailgating at football. After the unfortunate shooting at a football tailgate in 2004, NC State administration did what it usually does and overreacted by implementing a 4hr tailgate rule. This means that gates only open 4hrs before game time. For [...]

  • NC State Beats Down UNC

    Posted by Evan on February 5, 2007

    I know the game was 2 days ago but I am still celebrating. This wasn’t one of those games where NC State beat UNC because Matt Doh’ was coaching or CC Harrison hit 8 3-balls, it was won because of flat out hustle. State controlled the tempo for the entire game and [...]
