Amen. I've hated it since it was first introduced.

Mean Gene and that fat towel-waving kid from the FSU game need to figure into every one if our intro and promo videos. Get em in a dance-off right before the game starts. Slappy can be the judge.

Then they can get together and lead the student section in a cheer like, "Ooooooooooooooh, back the Pack! Pack Pack Pack! Power pack!" and start breaking it down to a rap song or something. This should be a thing.

i like it, and the nWo Wolfpack music they play is better than the other pump up music they play.

12/13/2012 10:56:14 AM

Excited to see how C-Nazty and Loren-Tin-Tin do on defense this year.

12/13/2012 8:37:13 PM

How you seen them so far? Leslie's been okay. Bo Bo Brown Town has been horrible on defense.

12/13/2012 8:38:54 PM

I think CJayJay the Jet Plane has a lot of room for improvement, actually.

Its awful and deserves to die. I cringe every time I hear it. We might as well be going WHO LET THE WOLVES OUT!!!

Yep. He's too hit or miss right now, defensibly. He plays hard on a consistent basis though, which is nice.

12/13/2012 8:41:09 PM

Anyone know who made this? I think it is hilarious.

Lol, we dropped out of coaches poll. Guess wins against UConn and a decent Norfolk State are bad.

12/17/2012 1:33:20 PM

I don't really see us moving up any higher unless we blow up stanford and at least 1 or 2 lower ranked teams shits the bed against an unranked opponent.

^^NC State has won 10 ACC titles, not 6.

Oh, in the last 50 years. Nvm

[Edited on December 17, 2012 at 2:32 PM. Reason : 2]

12/17/2012 2:29:28 PM

^^^ I like how they don't take Case's era into account in terms of program accomplishments, but still note him as our best coach.

12/17/2012 2:32:54 PM

Duke won't lose again before we play them, so it'll be nice to take down a #1

12/17/2012 2:35:54 PM

We win by 22 and drop out...UNC almost loses to ECU at home and is 19. Fuck this shit.

12/17/2012 2:37:00 PM

they replaced the team that almost lost to unca with the team that beat the number one team in the nation...

I'm all for homerism, but I have a hard time argueing that.

12/17/2012 2:44:58 PM

The issue is with the holes' ranking, not ours...

12/17/2012 2:48:52 PM

they're 8-2 .... and their two losses are butler and indiana ...


you kids pick the oddest fucking times to bitch

12/17/2012 3:03:38 PM

if we wanted to stay ranked we should have won fucking basketball games.

but we didn't want to win basketball games, so this is what happens. we all have to fucking deal w/ it.

"and their two losses are butler and indiana"

we're 7-2 and our two losses are to undefeated #2 Michigan and 8-1 top-25 Oklahoma State

its not like their losses are superior to ours

^lol, we were ranked, and we won basketball games, then lost our ranking, its not like we were ranked and lost games last week

[Edited on December 17, 2012 at 3:09 PM. Reason : .]

12/17/2012 3:08:58 PM

and we've lost to oklahamo state and michigan, which are more highly ranked than indiana and butler, now. and yes, we had a close game with unc-a, but they had a close game with ecu.... just to add to this argument

12/17/2012 3:13:56 PM

talk to me about rankings in february

til then i don't care about them

12/17/2012 3:14:11 PM

let's go undefeated and then beat an undefeated duke. Then we have every right to complain if we're not a T10 team. Right now, we got pushed down to 25 and it's hard to stay top 25 with the schedule we're playing.

12/17/2012 3:24:48 PM

Reverse UNC and State's schedule, results and preseason ranking. I don't think the positions would be the same.

It's to do with reputation, and until we become a perennial Top 15 team, this trend will persist.

Is the UNC-G game time going to move or can it not since its on ESPNU?

12/17/2012 9:36:28 PM

there might be about 500 fans at that game, depending on how well UNCG travels

12/17/2012 9:38:28 PM

^^ We can't move it right now because there is a Hurricanes game scheduled that night. If the Canes game is canceled then it will probably move to around 6pm.

12/17/2012 10:07:15 PM

What are these hurricanes you speak of.

12/17/2012 10:25:42 PM

12/17/2012 10:59:27 PM

Lol

12/17/2012 11:51:09 PM

If need be, we can always move the game over to Dorton (provided the Icecaps and Carolina Cougars aren't in town).

12/18/2012 12:21:01 AM

We should play at least one game in dorton every year. That place is special. Maybe not a big game but one of these games like this over the break.

The Bullfrogs left too big of a legacy there, would be impossible to overcome.

12/18/2012 9:56:43 AM

I used to have this shitty florescent green Bullfrogs hat that was made from a piece of foam fabric stuff. It had this spiral cut into it and when you put it on your head it looked a little bit like a retarded frog with hair sticking out of its back. I thought it was the coolest thing ever when I went to Bullfrogs games back in the day.

The ROTC guys have a firm hold over Reynolds yet we still manage to squeeze in one game a year.

12/18/2012 2:06:29 PM

we don't have to have a yearly game in every venue in raleigh.

12/18/2012 2:11:34 PM

We ought to play UNC or Duke at Reynolds so we get that unfair crowd advantage
