Yeah those first 14 minutes with 11 points just changed my opinion greatly.

We pressed at the end and pushed the tempo to get back in the game and then our halfcourt offense reared its face.

If anything this game showed me that our team should run more.

^ That was a terrific gameplan by Lowe.

I don't get it. We all pine for him to take Horner out because he submarines us at the beginning of every game and he does and then you idiots whine because we didn't score 50 in the first half.

We had the fucking lead at half you moron how are you going to bitch about Lowe because Wood and Mays were firing up bricks on wide open jumpers?

The "muck it up" lineup worked to perfection in the first half and we just didn't take advantage of it to grab a bigger lead.

At this point I think you guys WANT us to lose. We were TEN point underdogs and we almost won the game outright. Did you see Lawal and Favors out there?? They were on the OTHER team and we still almost won.

Yeah, we've never let a team get a huge lead only to storm back and come up short before.

I thought people would appreciate being on the other end of things for once after the gut-wrenching, spectacular Herb Sendek collapses we all suffered through for ten years.

Who are you people?

Well we've played pretty tough the first half of the ACC season and now we need to hit our stride as we enter an easier stretch of scheduling. I'd love to see us get 3 more ACC wins to finish out of the basement and maybe pull off an ACC-t win.

3 consecutive years of garbage basketball (with a couple good games thrown in, but come on, even Les Robinson beat Dean Smith once and a while). 3 new players is not worth ignoring this track record.

You guys are officially beyond ridiculous.

I passed out at halftime and I didnt want to post until seeing the 2nd half of the VT game.

After seeing the meltdown here I almost deleted the video but thankfully I didn't.

So our best two post players really couldn't play, VT hit every shot they took, and we went 0-11 from 3's.

And we lost? Stunning.

Who are you people?


I seriously have no idea what is going on in your lives that is so boring that watching a team nearly void of talent lose makes you so angry that you can't go on and lead a normal life anymore.

You are seriously blaming Lowe for all our defections? You are blaming him for Werner and Wright?

You are blaming him for Simmons and Brackman?

You are blaming him for Hickson?

Hell, even the FANS wanted Costner gone.

I don't get it.

I guarantee you he knew Hickson was 1 and done from the day he started recruiting him.

And yes, Costner is his fault. With a different coach and situation a player of his abilities may not have been hated by his fanbase

He might have had an idea that Hickson was one and done but a guarantee? Get real. There was certainly a chance that he would be in college for more than one year when Sid initially began to recruit him.

About Costner, the guy was lazy and had a bad attitude. Under a different coach he would have probably never even seen the floor because of these things, but we had personnel problems so he had to be out there.

Okay so Hickson was good enough to go pro early. I guess you are suggesting we shouldn't have accepted a first round pick caliber recruit who wanted to play here. Maybe we should have saved his scholarship for another 2 star PG. Great idea.

The reason we suck is becasue we've had 4 players defect, we missed on the best two prospects in the country, and we are one of the youngest teams in the nation.

We lost our bridge when Brackman/Simmons left early and an entire recruiting class fell thru because the coaching search went on so long.

We were not supposed to win games, everyone knew the rebuilding process was going to be difficult.

Now here we are showing flashes of potential in year 4 with a good young roster, a top notch incoming class, and a coach who has proven he can land big time recruits and has a good eye for overlooked players like Gonzalez, T.Smith, Wood, Howell, and Davis.

The amount of negativity is just strange. Perplexing, really.

"I am ready to rally around Sidney.

I do NOT think he is a good coach at this point in his career.

What I am willing to bet on is his ability to recruit at a high level and put together a team that can make NC State a team with ACC and NCAA championship potential.

Buy Lowe, sell high.

This team isn't quite good enough to win tough games, yet.

Sidney took this job in a HORRIBLE situation. Our program had consistent mild success and he took over a team that was losing talent, lost an entire top rated recruiting class, and he had no connections recruiting wise.

Look at the kind of talent he has plucked... Tracy Smith is a big time baller.

When it comes down to it, he's got NBA connections, a great program, great school support, a great venue.... he has a chance to produce year in year out classes that are elite.

If we start combining a few one and dones like Hickson, Wall, or Favors with top notch 3-4 year players like Harrow, Brown, Cothron we will be a team with potential to beat anyone.

I know it's not the slow, methodical, excrutiating process that Herb got you used to, but remember Valvano didn't win a title with slow white players.

I am willing to flat out guarantee we will make the NCAA tournament next year. We have 2 stud freshman committed who don't even project as starters. When has that ever been the case?


What evidence do you need?

-Wood is looking like a potential sharpshooter

-Howell is a complete beast who has yet to hone his skills

-Vandenburg is a quality player

-Javi Gonzalez went from a horrible PG to a guy whose Jr. year stats are comparable to Raymond Felton's. I will grant you he is not a natural or reliable PG like Felton was, but a no-name hispanic PG becoming an impact player in the ACC is not a frequent occurence. Harrow will disappoint next year, but will eventually become one of the best PG's the ACC has ever seen...

-- Degand went from a washout end of the bench type player to an attack mode, break down the defense weapon.




As much as I look like a genius for starting the "Sidney Lowe credibility thread" three years ago, my genius will prove true again in this one.

Flame on, I will be right in the end."

Stop trying to argue with me.

We are the 275th most experienced team in the nation. That's just a factual statistic man.

This thread was made before I even started watching the FSU game moron.

Granted the game had begun, but I had no idea what the score is. I'm relatively certain if you timestamp it, we weren't even winning at the time as someone noted.

Oh no we lost a road game to a better team, let's have another meltdown.

You guys are third grade school girls.


Again, I will be right about this thread yet again just as I was in the credibility thread two years ago when everyone loved Lowe. Don't worry.

So since every team is better than us why do we even play the games? We could save money and not show up since our coach and team do that already.

Okay, we didn't beat UNC. I wish we had. We didn't. Coming into the season beating UNC wasn't even on the table so get over it.

Herb faced UNC during their weakest decade ever as a program and we went 3-50 against them. They trotted out a good team or two, several mediocre ones, and an outright horrible one and yet we still couldn't ever beat them.

If you read my original post I put that we aren't good enough to win games yet. There is no doubt of that.

However, our young talent looks really solid and we aren't losing anything next year. We add a great recruiting class. If anything, today was another positive as we found out what a great asset Painter is on defense. Our frontcourt is looking like one of the best in the conference next year between Smith, Howell, Painter, Cothron, Vandenburg, Thomas. Our backcourt gets a talent infusion next year to add with a retuning senior in Javi. Our wings add another year of experience where we need it the most between Wood, Davis, and CJ.

We look like we'll be good next season, marginal in two years, and terrific in three seasons. Why is that difficult to comprehend?

to 'side with you' somewhat.. i really hope lowe can do something next year with those new guys that have been hyped for like 20 months now. we'll see. either lowe or his replacement i hope they have success. i LIKE sydney lowe as a coach/person more than anybody since jimmy v to be honest. i'd HATE to see him go. but man, he just flat out stinks right now


V just took it out. i'm trying to be 'moar positive'. but you sir have a fuckin cock in your brain. just completely out of reality.

lowe: win a games this year plox.
