5 ACC wins is the target

8/16/2011 11:47:17 PM

I don't see us losing 5 games or less.

8/17/2011 12:02:16 AM

i just spoke with gavin grant. he is confident that state will lose no more than 4 games.

8/17/2011 12:06:48 AM

Was it a prison visit? Or is he out now?

8/17/2011 12:23:04 AM

Conjugal visit

This.

And I wish they'd get rid of the surplus of Block 'S' logo. Ugh! Bring back the ol' school wolf like I said before. Two-toned court does look tacky.

8/17/2011 3:37:30 AM

Debbie Yow is quickly learning that no one is ever happy with anything at State.

8/17/2011 4:30:31 AM

^

we are a miserable fanbase

8/17/2011 10:43:50 AM

from Coach Gottfried's twitter...better pic than Johnson's. I like it more from this picture.

8/17/2011 10:59:51 AM

looks fine to me, but i'm not big on interior decorating.

8/17/2011 11:03:57 AM

i love the two toned floor and think it looks anything but tacky

but i dont know tacky like some know tacky

8/17/2011 1:03:56 PM

WHY DOES IT SAY NC STATE INSTEAD OF STATE???

8/17/2011 1:10:04 PM

One thing I didn't realize until Gottfried's picture is the charge arc under the basket

Also, for anyone concerned, the women's 3 point line is moving back to be the same as the men's this season.

8/17/2011 3:30:34 PM

you don't say? good for women's basketball.

8/17/2011 3:32:12 PM

lolwut

We are angry, hateful people, you just need people in charge who can direct that outward not inward. Personally, I wish we would embrace this side of things more and stop having people want to be like carolina and duke tools.

8/17/2011 3:36:19 PM

we're only miserable b/c we suck at everything. as far as i've seen, there's really nothing that distinguishes us from any other losing fanbases, and nothing would distinguish us from a winning fanbase, were we to win at anything.

So women's basketball will be even more pathetic and horrible. Wow what a fucking dumb move. I still say they need to lower the damn rims in womens basketball. /off thread topic

New court looks okay to me.

8/17/2011 4:14:31 PM

women always shot higher %s when the lines were the same so that doesn't really make sense. Also, IIRC the womens championship was more of a well-played game with more points than the mens abortion of a championship. Some people will never get over sexism though.

8/17/2011 6:32:09 PM

So E Man is mambagirl

Mystery solved

8/17/2011 6:50:10 PM

Just renewed my season tickets. New Era, should be exciting. We'll see if this is another season ending with a punch in the nuts.

8/17/2011 8:17:29 PM

Womens bbal would be better if they wore tight volleyball shorts instead of looking dudes.

8/17/2011 10:21:49 PM

8/17/2011 10:52:40 PM

i don't want to see any girl on a college basketball team in volleyball shorts.

8/17/2011 10:53:15 PM

Any girl on a college basketball team?

8/17/2011 11:20:01 PM

certainly not enough to make it worth seeing them all.

8/17/2011 11:28:01 PM

New video about the history, but the ending is just awkward as hell w/ Gottfried just looking at you and walking out

8/18/2011 8:45:59 AM

haha he just kinda derps in there at the end

8/18/2011 8:46:28 AM

hahaha that was so anticlimatic...and creepy.

8/18/2011 8:56:53 AM

yeah, you're already laughing at Julius, and then when you see Gottfried...aaaand end scene, it's like >_>

8/18/2011 8:59:29 AM

or Harrow's name still up in the background...

8/18/2011 9:13:42 AM

Ahhh good call ^ The rest of video is awesome though... should just edit the video to end after Hodge

8/18/2011 9:21:56 AM

just have gottfried say a few words, at the very least

8/18/2011 9:23:12 AM

Vandy is banned from Carmichael gym. When asked about it he replied, "I didn't do shit."

hahaha, yeah what the hell at the ending

great video aaaaaaaaaand.............it stops

8/18/2011 11:19:01 AM

I laughed pretty heartily at the ending

8/18/2011 11:23:09 AM

rewatched to see the Harrow locker name

lol wtf @ giving him a Natl Title trophy

8/18/2011 11:25:16 AM

battle of the block Ses

8/18/2011 11:34:09 AM

The video clearly was edited wrong or isn't complete.

hahaha, that is the perfect way of describing what he did. Here's hoping ^you're right and it was a mistake or they're not done with it yet.

8/18/2011 1:12:56 PM

maybe it's symbolic that he'll let his coaching do the talking?

8/18/2011 1:29:54 PM

that video was great
that ending was loltastic

8/18/2011 1:44:28 PM

Gottfried tweeted the video earlier, so one can assume that it is the finished product

and the trend of "one step forward, two steps back" at NC State continues

8/18/2011 1:48:25 PM

vid was probably shot before harrow even left...but even still...srsly funny.

8/18/2011 3:48:44 PM

Wait how in the fucking hell did Engin Atsur make that video hahahahaha.

It's like All americans, legendary coaches, ncaa champions, acc-t champions, slam dunk champs, and the greatest NCAA player of all time.

And then oh yeah here's little known SG Engin Atsur a 4 year contributor that averaged like 10 ppg and missed most of his senior year with an injury. Notable: Being an ESPN highlight for literally having a guy jump over his head on a dunk once.

8/18/2011 6:54:48 PM

I heard Mark Gottfried went to France to recruit an unknown named Ilian Evtimov.

8/18/2011 9:13:53 PM

Hodge is the man.

8/19/2011 7:28:10 AM

ending did not disappoint.


we need to bring back those shorts of the Todd Fuller era

8/19/2011 9:02:02 AM

I think if you're showing that video to recruits, you leave out Gugliotta and Fuller and just put in clips of more recent athletes dunking on people (Damon Thornton on Maryland, Bennerman on Shelden, etc.).

There is no possibly benefit to showing a 16/17 y/o recruit a short clip of Fuller and Gugliotta play (unless you maybe put a blurb about Fuller being a lottery pick).
