By posting below with the usual 'fire herb', you enter into an agreement to be suspended by the mods in the event you post in sports talk again if the team wins two games in the dance.

We cant have this shit every year when the team goes into a slump.

do you agree to promote the fire Herb threads or be suspended if we dont?

on the Sendek Sunshine Squad.

I'm not the herb hater, but would you agree to be suspended if we don't make it to the sweet 16? Just playing the devil's advocate here.

3/13/2006 1:20:20 PM

We can make it to the sweet 16 every year for the next 5 years and I still won't be in support of Herb or apologize for it, because thats consistent mediocrity and no progress and thats what Herb gives us year in and year out

I think the difference between Herb supporters and non-supporters really just boils down to expectations

3/13/2006 1:20:39 PM

what are you going to do, suspend people for supporting herb?

fuck it go ahead asshole

3/13/2006 1:20:47 PM

why would i ^^^ ? i have no fucking clue what is going to happen, its the dance.

but some people in sports talk are 100% convinced that we will be one and done.



^^what that hell?

i don't think anyone is convined 100% that we will win 1

3/13/2006 1:21:56 PM

i said some people are convinced we will play one game and be done.

[Edited on March 13, 2006 at 1:23 PM. Reason : that a loss, not a win]

3/13/2006 1:22:44 PM

oh. i thought one and done meant win one and then we're done

nvm

3/13/2006 1:23:32 PM

3/13/2006 1:24:16 PM

if going to the sweet 16 five years in a row is mediocrity then there are only about 6 programs in the entire country that are not mediocre b/c there are only about 6 that consistently through history have gotten past the sweet 16

[Edited on March 13, 2006 at 1:25 PM. Reason : maybe not even six, maybe just 3 looking at the past 20 years, duke, unc, and kentucky]

I will amend this, if we get put out 1st Round those that support join the "dark side" of Fire Herb. And if we make it to the sweet 16, I will Stop being a "Herb Hater". There must be some form of equality in this agreement and risk/reward for both sides...how bout it?

I'm still unclear on what the "herb haters" get when we get bounced from the tourney.

I've been saying "I told you so" since I finally jumped on that bandwagon, so that's low compensation.

3/13/2006 1:37:00 PM

So Josh, wassup on that? I am straight on your bet/agreement. I am not skerred to put it on the line for what I believe and think is best. And if we make to Sweet 16 - I will officially end my streak of "FH" and support the mundane under achiever...but if we get bounced in first round, you have to support firing herb ...

Agreed?

I think that's true for some, but most people... even those who don't fully support Herb... just want whats best for the program.

I truly believe theres a few on here that just hate Herb

someone taked about being a "Herb Hater". I don't hate the man himself. Outside of coaching Bball...He is mad kool and a good guy. A lil lame at times, but I respect him, and would love to see him achieve. I just don't believe it will be here with NCSU or in the ACC for that matter.

They're the same ones who think that we want the US to get terror-nuked just because we think W is doing a shitty job running our country.

(For the record, Herb is a much better coach than W is a president. I'll get this nonsense out of sports talk now.)

God this thread is going nowhere

3/13/2006 1:48:55 PM

funny all the herb haters get so reserved when something tangible could be on the line, its exactly what i expected. its all just irrational hatred, nothing productive.

I barely wanted to give them to Herb.

I may not have at all. Can anyone track down the moment I decided that I jumped off of the "Herb's a nice guy, give him a chance" train? Probably not, but I am curious now as to when I became a "hater."

3/13/2006 2:05:14 PM

ill agree not to ever say a bad thing about herb again if we go to the sweet sixteen... (for the rest of his career at ncsu) -- The way bets work out for me, this is well worth the payment for seeing our players beat texas.

What a dumb fucking idea. OMF IF YOU DONT SUPPORT THE COACH YOU GOTTA LEAVE THE BOARDS


Fuck off. How about this. We don't make the Sweet 16... you leave the board. It's equally as stupid. Anyone team can get lucky or unlucky.

"you people's" problem is that you look use shit like "5 straight NCAA's" and think all is fair and dandy in Pack land. The rest of us see stupid shit like getting outrebounded sevenfold every year, turning the ball over when being pressed every year, blowing leads every year, and everything else that's been said ad nauseum over the past 10 years that's not improving one iota and is the reason we get waxed by teams we shouldn't.

But I guess being a realist isn't allowed around here.

3/13/2006 2:14:04 PM

^people said that same shit last year and look at them now

3/13/2006 2:14:19 PM

^ Yeah?

And we still cant rebound, break the press, score consistently, or hold onto leads.

Sounds like they had a point

3/13/2006 2:17:30 PM

^^on a huge losing streak that has so far been highlighted by being severly outclassed by the last place team in the conference? How does this prove your point?

eh, after the unc suspensions anything said like that isn't going to be treated as a joke...
and if you suspend me, somehow, even with 37 thousand posts, i do'nt thikn i'd miss this place much...

but anyway, nobody should have to go for hating herb or being a fan of his... there are perfectly justifiable reasons for both arguements...
sad... nc state's sports fanbase has been a microcosm for the american split for the last 6 years...

3/13/2006 2:19:38 PM

will the SSS agree to be suspended in the event that we don't make the sweet 16?

if you're not willing to do this why would anyone else do it? it's a two-way street

wtf? we haven't had trouble with breaking the press since like 2003 when we lost to cal in the first round. we've gotten pretty damn good at breaking the press since then.

3/13/2006 2:26:22 PM

You've got to be kidding me.


What game was it...FSU...where we had like 10 straight turnovers becuase Atsur kept picking up his dribble and getting double teamed.


Not to mention our patented "Joe Montana" half-court heaves that always get intercepted becuase we can't get a decent inbounds play.

wtf. you're saying every year we go into these slumps? boy, that's real encouraging. please keep herb for another ten years so we can experience this 4 game fold every year.

why do we always have to go through these slumps?

these aren't minor slumps. good teams still compete. we absolutely collaaaaaaaapse. every year!

3/13/2006 2:34:12 PM

we can win 5 national titles in a row, i will never support herb

3/13/2006 2:34:48 PM

i would love herb more than anyone if he left during the offseason

first round L

3/13/2006 2:57:12 PM

if you're sure then we might as well not even play the game

3/13/2006 2:59:20 PM

Well I don't see more Herb Supporters jumping on the bet either....If people expect to see the Haterz jump on the bet, then those supporters need to be in on bet also
