i received this email from Debbie "Decoder" Yow herself. What does it mean?
Quote : | " From: Face To: Debbie Yow Time: 9:00 PM EST
"Debbie,
It's time to grab the low hanging fruit. It's 1:30 AM. No other girls are staggering through those doors. The hot blonde left. The wasted Asian is throwing up in the bathroom. And even if the bartender did get off before 4 AM I'd be too tired to get it up. In the immortal words of DMX, "You gots to make a move and make it soon. You gots to take a block and make it boom. I take the car we hit it with this boom. We coming through so make some room. Now come on lets get that money"." |
She responded back with:

I can't say I understand what all of that means but I can assure you we are working hard to come to an expedient decision. We have interviewed nearly a dozen candidates over the past few weeks and have narrowed our search down and expect to have a decision in the next few days. Please be patient during the process and have faith in the people conducting this comprehensive search.
Thanks for Your Support,
Debbie " |

Quote : | " Dear Wolfpack Family,
I am writing to share with you the status of the search for our new head coach for men's basketball. There have been telephone conversations with successful coaches that did not develop into meetings -- sometimes because we did not wish to pursue those coaches further Gregg Marshal and sometimes because the coach involved is happy where he is Sean Miller.
The conversations have been candid brutal. We have not tried to sugarcoat the challenge of rebuilding our basketball program. Our absence for 5 consecutive years from the NCAA Tournament was noted by each coach as evidence that the program is in poor shape is entirely due to the inept former AD Lee Fowler, and will require a special effort to rebuild.
Finding a coach with the fight and fire to do this job has been a challenge at this point is near impossible. That said, we will might find an excellent college coach who shares the vision of what State Basketball can become and is up for the challenge.
I realize there are multiple rumors surfacing about the nature of the search on websites and in newspapers. Once our new coach is hired, I will be in a position to bring perspective to a number of those rumors I will fire that no good piece of shit staffing agency that was supposed to keep our affairs quiet. But, right now, we need to remain focused on finding a talented collegiate coach who is a fighter, full of confidence and appreciation for the opportunity to lead our basketball program back to national prominence.
That will happen in spite of those who believe this cannot occur.
Wolfpack Basketball is destined for a revival at least 5 more years of "NC State shit". We will accept no less. Please keep the faith while we continue the search. Your emails and text messages of support have meant everything to me bothered the everliving piss out of me. I am blessed to be your AD.
In the Spirit of the Pack,
Debbie"" |

I really don't see it as such an ominous sign
I was just thinking earlier today that while I appreciated DY's silence in the media approach, it has become clear that talking heads will just end up filling that information void, doing unnecessary damage to our image. I thought it would be smart to put out tidbits during the search to at the least provide some misdirection against the garbage being disseminated. I just couldn't think of an example of what she could do to calm the speculation day after day.
I honestly think this is a good move on her part, maybe should have come a little sooner, but today was the first day we really could explore the Shaka option, so really how sooner could it have come?
Keep on keepin on DY, I'm still excited to see what you got, and I'll be looking forward to your post-hire comments on the rumors 4/4/2011 9:49:25 PM |

Earlier I jokingly floated the idea of putting Hodge in as a coach and just taking the L's and trying to cultivate him into a great coach.
Now I don't know that it wouldn't be the best scenario 4/4/2011 9:52:29 PM |
