for page 26, because that is how many wolves this shirt really needs

this has to be a joke right?

i'm disappointed that they didn't utilize all that blank space on the center of the back
perfect spot for one of these:

Ive never noticed the hands in that picture until now.

2/18/2015 12:16:24 AM

kinda like how i just noticed the ass and dick contour in the hoodie up above...damnit

2/18/2015 12:59:12 AM

Better than the red/black camo

2/18/2015 2:21:23 AM

Looks like one of my guns in Call of Duty

2/18/2015 2:30:08 AM

im ok with it

2/18/2015 7:28:42 AM

I would rock both of those

2/18/2015 7:54:59 AM

Sweet Jesus our marketing and design department suck ass

2/18/2015 8:50:47 AM

plz tell me those aren't products of NC State...

2/18/2015 9:02:08 AM

Oh boy.

2/18/2015 9:05:33 AM

not a licensing expert, but pretty sure State isn't really involved beyond collecting money off any actual sales this "Gone Rogue" company gets while using State's logos

also, here's this from a recent Gott interview:

as I understand it, there's generally a "don't do stupid shit with our logos" clause built into licensing agreements. NCSU has either signed off on these, or is too lazy to follow up on their intellectual property use. I suspect it's a little of Column A and a little of Column B

2/18/2015 9:34:33 AM

didn't realize that. actually looked up our licensing stuff since I looked it up years ago but not since... looks like we outsource the bulk of it to some company called LRG that handles the licenses and approves the products. it sounds like they would be signing off on most things rather than State.

LRG has like 200+ schools as clients, but most are pretty small-time

hey, newsflash, kids these days wear shit like that. buncha old farts on this board.

i would buy one of those "rise up to the fray" shirts, though. also, an arm sleeve. because everyone needs an arm sleeve.

2/18/2015 10:02:03 AM

Not a fan of the camo one, but I would wear the one at the top of the page.

Then again, no one has ever complemented me on my keen sense of fashion.

Let's comment for a few more pages about fashion!

2/18/2015 10:48:24 AM

i mean, we could spend three more days rehashing what each of us thinks State needs to do to make the tournament until we have another game and do that all over again

2/18/2015 11:03:57 AM

Alright, if we're going to talk fashion, I do want these:



But why the hell are they $100??

i would definitely wear the ten wolf shirt... glad im not an old fart yet. although the alternative might mean im an immature crackpot when wearing this.

Obviously they dont know what they are talking about; No way the committee puts us in a potential rematch (WVU) and a conference opponent (UND) on the first weekend. Im pretty sure they delay conference matchups as much as possible (at least the second weekend).
Lunardi has us in the play-in game against Tulsa, and then getting Maryland (which I can definitely see happening).

^Wouldn't be a bad draw. Surely we can't lose to UVA for a third time this season, right??

2/18/2015 12:11:34 PM

+1 Accuracy
+2 Damage
+1 Critical Strike

2/18/2015 12:18:45 PM

I don't think Maryland is as good as advertised. You just don't go from being mediocre in the ACC to the top of the world in another conference and have gotten THAT MUCH better.

With that said, I think we are better than these bubble teams and if we go 4-1 and win an ACCT game we should be sitting pretty with a fair seed.

We need to be a seeded team, F all this stupid play in Game stuff...we run into buzzsaw teams way too early.

2/18/2015 2:11:17 PM

I'd hardly call those Xavier, Temple, and Saint Louis teams we've played over the last couple years buzzsaws

2/18/2015 2:24:06 PM

Well, we beat Xavier if you didn't see the game.

More referring to Kansas and Georgetown even though we beat them.

2/18/2015 2:31:10 PM

The year we played Gtown and Kansas we weren't involved in a play-in game, we were an 11 seed. I'm not sure we can put ourselves above the 10 or 11 seed this year. Even if we did we would end up on the 8/9 line, which means a #1 buzzsaw in the second third round.



[Edited on February 18, 2015 at 2:52 PM. Reason : 2nd = 3rd]

2/18/2015 2:41:53 PM

Bring it on, I wanna play UVa in the 2nd round!

2/18/2015 2:42:40 PM

Not really sure how Kansas and Georgetown are relevant to us being in a play-in game, but I guess I'm the one not up on things since I mentioned Xavier, one of the two teams we played during the only year we were in the first four.

well, with the play in game it isn't so much running into buzzsaw opponents. your first game is against a pretty even opponent - you're both in the play in game. your next game will be vs a 5 or 6 seed. again - pretty winnable game although you'd obviously be the underdog. you could potentially see a 3 seed in the 2nd round, but that's the worst you would see that early.

the worst part of the play in game is fatigue. we'd be coming out of the ACCT (hopefully having played multiple games) then looking at potentially playing 3 games in 6 days if you win the first two. that's just a lot of games in a few days when you include the ACCT. i think last season we finished the season by playing 5 games in 9 days or something like that.

2/18/2015 2:51:12 PM

That's why they moved the ACC tournament up to end on Saturday instead of Sunday this year

2/18/2015 2:56:32 PM

Quote :

"a UNC win would mean a true contender/above average ACC bubble team."

I think another win against a top-20 team (if UNC loses to Duke) or especially a top-10 team (if UNC beats Duke) takes us off the bubble and puts us solidly "in."

But, it's UNC, who somehow beat us at home in our best/their worst years. So while hopeful, I'm not super optimistic.

I think we can do better

2/18/2015 9:51:51 PM

Ty Lawson over Phil Ford?

2/18/2015 10:18:13 PM

More like Jeff McInnis over Phil Ford's wife, amirite

2/18/2015 10:19:49 PM

Shackleford over Costner?

2/18/2015 10:38:38 PM

actually it would be more like Shackleford over Burleson?

2/18/2015 10:43:14 PM

No Hodge? Warren?

[Edited on February 18, 2015 at 10:46 PM. Reason : .]

Reading the comments, it looks like whoever wrote this must have left off David Thompson at first before he got called out and then corrected it. So he's more than likely an idiot or did no research at all.

2/18/2015 10:46:57 PM

no chance Hodge or Warren are better than Thompson or Googs

2/18/2015 10:49:28 PM

Is JJ Hickson really one of our best? He only played one year.

2/18/2015 10:51:18 PM

I'd put Corchiani over Webb

2/18/2015 10:52:25 PM

also, Randolph Childress should be a starter for Wake

2/19/2015 12:51:26 AM

Hodge wouldn't even sniff the second team. But, hes certainly above Webb, Hickson , and Shackelford. What a horrible list.
