did we officially strike out on savon goodman?

6/15/2012 12:16:27 PM

for getting the "green light" on goodman, it really never seemed like there was much communication

6/15/2012 12:37:56 PM

the hell is King Moses?

6/20/2012 10:28:26 AM

Have we really had much success beating Kentucky out for recruits though? I would love to land Randle and build a class around him, but Cal is definitely a hard recruiter to beat.

6/28/2012 10:14:37 AM

If we landed Randle...fuck, I don't know....

It would be awesome.

Purvis is our wild card in the Randle situation. Hopefully, if we can perform well this season and their friendship is as strong as advertised, then we may have a legitimate shot.

I would say our chances are 70% dependent on us having a REALLY GOOD season and 30% depend on Purvis's influence.

6/28/2012 12:15:26 PM

honestly once kentucky gets involved at this point i'm going to assume we've lost the kid.

the list of kids that calapari has put into the nba is staggering, and now he has a national championship to his resume.

6/28/2012 12:23:25 PM

yeah I know

He'd be a 1 and done anyhow.

6/28/2012 12:24:38 PM

It might also depend on how many UK players jump ship after their freshman year. If they actually stick around then we have immediate playing time on our side.

6/28/2012 12:25:25 PM

I think we are all better off not getting our hopes up.

6/28/2012 12:32:23 PM

well, of course. always accept the best, but expect the worst.

[Edited on June 28, 2012 at 12:35 PM. Reason : ]

6/28/2012 12:35:42 PM

There is no way this happens.

6/28/2012 1:17:19 PM

feels good to be in the same recruiting sentences as Kentucky

6/28/2012 2:15:55 PM

There is no.way this happens.

6/28/2012 5:29:15 PM

first there was no way we'd get cjl.
then there was no way we'd get purvis.

6/28/2012 5:40:40 PM

Okay, and now give us an example of a player not from Wake County

6/28/2012 5:41:51 PM

you've got a point there.

i'm just saying we're gaining momentum.
there is a way.
it's not likely, but it could happen.

6/28/2012 5:47:20 PM

When's the last time UK lost a recruiting battle to UNC? Slim chance is slim.

I don't think this has been posted, but Rodney Hood (Miss State transfer) signed with Duke

7/1/2012 9:00:28 AM

well shit

7/1/2012 12:35:42 PM

Saw PP posted a story recently about an update with Randle, anyone care to post a summary or how we sit with him? Last I heard State and UK were on him the hardest.

7/9/2012 11:32:52 AM

[cue jaded posters informing you that you're an idiot if you think that we have a real shot at Randle]

7/9/2012 11:46:24 AM

i stopped reading that post when the first two words after pack pride weren't "is retarded".

7/9/2012 11:52:13 AM

eh, nothing wrong with the PP stories. and there are a handful of posters in the forum that post intelligent and sometimes informative posts. but of course, there's also a mob of full-blown retards posting in the forums.

and we have no chance with randle!, idiot.

7/9/2012 12:25:49 PM

Oh, my! What's all this then?

Yes!

The snowball started with this year's recruiting class and the 3 Mickey D's. Now you have them participating in all of these tournaments, camps, etc. with other up and coming players and friends and NC State's name is being thrown a lot more. If we can put together 2 or 3 classes like this incoming one, we will def become a bigger name on the recruiting circuit.

7/9/2012 5:38:18 PM

^^that sounds awesome

[Edited on July 9, 2012 at 5:44 PM. Reason : ic's reaction is even better http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=78&f=1410&t=9132598]

7/9/2012 5:42:11 PM

So right now for Randle is it us, Kentucky, and Duke. Sounds familiar. Hope this one turns out better than Amile.
