It Doesn’t Get Any Worse

Posted by Evan on February 20, 2008

I can’t take it anymore, we absolutely stink.

We play with no heart

We play no defense (I’m specifically talking to you Marcus Johnson….among others)

We don’t box out which leads to ZERO rebounding

The offense is pathetic…..

We can’t shoot a 3 to save our life, there are guys who I play with in the morning that shoot better than the boys in red and white.

If JJ Hickson goes pro this year, he’s going the way of Josh Powell and Cedric Simmons. Which is the VH1 equivalent of ‘Where are they now?’

Marcus Johnson maybe the worst player to put on an NC State uniform in the last 15 years, and that is including Keith Bean, Adam Harrington, Tim Wells, Idris Talib, et al.. Johnson plays defense with his arms glued to his side.

When Ginyard drove through the middle of the lane uncontested and dunked it, Sidney Lowe should have ripped off his jacket and yanked every last one of them off the floor.

Trevor Furgeson should never shoot…..or play.

I remember the rumors that we could have had Bruce Pearl had Herb left one year earlier….hmmm

Sidney Lowe makes me very sad.

At least with football there are some glimmers of hope and I have faith that TOB can build a program, b/c he’s done it before. I just don’t feel the same with Sidney Lowe. I never liked the hire but i’m till trying to give him time with his players rather than joining my dad with his “Lowe must Go” chant.

Hey, you didn’t have to call me out like that. Worst player. Geez, cut me some slack. I accidently made the team anyway. LOL. Give the program some time to get all of the coaches players in the system before you give up hope. I understand where you are coming from however.

Actually the worst player in NC State history was on that team with me and many of those names you mentioned. I am not going to say his name but he is in Medical School right now.

Sorry Ike, you just happened to be the first person I thought of. Nothing personal, i know there are others way worse….

Hmm who was on your team..

Justin Gainey (coaching)
Tim Wells (no clue_
Kenny inge (Europe)
Ron Kelley (bouncer in Raleigh)
Archie Miller (coaching)
Damon Thorton (Europe)
Cornelius Williams (??)
Ron Anderson (??)
Keith Bean (transfered to Texas AM, probably 450lbs right now)
Adam Harrington (gay, transferred to Auburn)
Brian Keeter (??)
Carl Lentz (??)
Anthony Grundy (Atl. Hawks last time i heard)
John Hampton (??)
Ben Petty (??)
and Idris Talib

So you are referring to either, Keeter, Lentz, Hampton, Petty, Anderson or Williams….

Benjamin Petty. We used to call him the worse division 1 basketball player. He is a great guy though. He is medical school. John Hampton is in the Navy flying planes like on Top Gun. Carl Lenz is a preacher in VA. Tim Wells is coaching for Winston Salem State University. Grundy is in Greece kicking ass. Thornton is in Spain. Inge can’t play anymore bc of his knee so he is trying to break into coaching. I work as financial advisor in the Global Wealth Management Group for Morgan Stanley in Charlotte.

Now who are you and how do know me?
