2 early for a NC State Football 2014 thread

12/5/2013 4:23:06 PM

how hard is it not to do dumb shit like this?

12/5/2013 4:34:01 PM

probably about as hard as it is to not rush to conclusions

12/5/2013 4:36:09 PM

the pot stuff will get dropped.

the sexual assault, who knows.

12/5/2013 4:42:00 PM

Shad suspended indefinitely. Jones transferring

12/5/2013 6:44:11 PM

Shouldn't a student have to plead guilty/be found guilty before being suspended?

12/5/2013 8:00:00 PM

I think you have punishment by the law and having the privileged to play on a football team confused.

The summer was assault. This is sexual battery. Not the same charges - I highly doubt they are the same incident.

Suspended from the team, not school. The coach can do whatever he wants when it comes to suspending guys.

12/5/2013 8:36:40 PM

Welp, it's been real Shad. You were the best player on the worst team in NC State history. Plank on, plankin on brother.

12/5/2013 9:02:50 PM

if we were any good, I'd probably care more about Shad's suspension. Dayes showed alot of potential, so it might be good that we'll see heavy doses of him.

truth be told, I'm glad we're holding our players accountable. it's a much different approach than some other programs we've seen recently

jeez, lots of attrition in the last year.

12/11/2013 4:04:28 PM

apparently copeland had put some kind of images online that got him in trouble.

12/11/2013 4:07:11 PM

That was today - that's a pretty quick turnaround - especially with DD on the road. Don't think that was the sole cause.

12/11/2013 4:08:36 PM

so from reading PP, some are saying the stuff he posted on instagram was just some "make money quick" scam and had nothing to do with him leaving the team.

12/11/2013 4:14:37 PM

How does Baumann have any eligibility left? And, more importantly, how can we not find anyone better? The dude's average has to be horrendously short.

because he was only a junior this year?

Quote :

"nd, more importantly, how can we not find anyone better? The dude's average has to be horrendously short."

he ranks 7th in punt yardage at State, and his average was the 20th best in the country this year.

12/11/2013 4:25:07 PM

our punting was super inconsistent especially in the last half of this season, though. i remember him being pretty solid last year so the regression surprised me and others as well.

12/11/2013 4:28:41 PM

last year he wasn't oeven in the top100 when it came to average yards per punt

12/11/2013 4:33:37 PM

Damn this offseason is starting out terrible. Shadrach, Jones, Copeland. We are like the Urban Meyer Gator teams without any of the success.

12/11/2013 5:31:51 PM

dudes dropping stats over here

12/11/2013 10:42:54 PM

It was inevitable that we would see some guys go.

That is ok though, dude barely did any work this year with our horrific team...better WRs coming in.

Will miss Shad though IF he is convicted.

12/12/2013 12:11:02 AM

if we all just stop talking about the football program and pretend it doesnt exist for 5 years maybe we'll have a team worth thinking about. in the meantime who really cares

12/12/2013 2:33:16 AM

not like there's any reason to even fathom a bowl, but wow, with that shittastic OCC schedule, it looks like we'll need 7 wins to make a bowl (unless GSU is a transition BCS team, which I can't find anything showing they are). also, isn't Presbyterian DII?

dayes and thornton made a good combination. i think a heavy does of dayes is not necessarily a good thing. he isn't going to wear down a defense/grind out yards like thornton could.

12/12/2013 8:59:30 AM

Don't you care about how we get there? The process? The struggle? What fun is it to get off the bandwagon now and hop on again only when the team becomes good?

12/12/2013 9:01:49 AM

Are we still in it with Derrell Scott?

Could help that the backfield got a little less crowed

Speak for yourself - dude had to play behind Smith and Payton and would have started next year with Underwood and Valdes.

12/12/2013 10:03:45 AM

Copeland was less than impressive - he wasn't a different maker nor was he going to be. I expect Underwood/Scantling/Ramos to be our go to guys.

He did nothing at WVU, and he did nothing here.

12/12/2013 10:37:22 AM

He had 20 receptions for 149 yards this year as a true sophomore. He certainly could have progressed into a very good player. But yeah, I think we'll be okay with our other young receivers.

12/12/2013 10:48:10 AM

The Louisville game is not a definite loss. They are losing their QB this year and per all the louisville guys in my office, they are supposed to be shit next year.

I think this is a winnable game. fuck UofL for real. They are going to be my new Maryland. their fans are scum.

GA Southern and ODU will count FBS in 2014 and Presbyterian is FCS

Hegedus apparently transferring. Hope Thompson sees the opportunity to get PT next year with Hegedus and Copeland gone.

^^ by watching games.

I like dayes, but he isn't the same type of runner as Thornton. that's pretty damn obvious, even to idiots like me.
