So does he stay or go?

6/8/2010 2:23:29 PM

He's the next Todd Helton

6/8/2010 2:25:48 PM

This was mentioned in the Wolfpack baseball thread, but probably deserves it's own thread.

Here's my post:

"Congrats to Russell, but yeah this could be bad for our fb team. If I am Wilson, I am seriously considering signing as the offer from the Rockies should be solid. I am surprised he went that high. Also what is with the Rockies loading up on ACC QBs - Kyle Parker yesterday, Russell today. "

6/8/2010 2:27:30 PM

Dude, you think he realized there are 1,000 RW threads, a Wolfpack baseball thread and an MLB thread?

6/8/2010 2:29:33 PM

in related news, does anybody know what Russell Wilson will be doing tonight?

6/8/2010 2:32:10 PM

^^^ i agree. he should look long and hard at going since that's prob as high as he's going to get on anyone's potential draft board for next year

[Edited on June 8, 2010 at 2:32 PM. Reason : ^]

Well that one Oregon QB, Dixon, played minor league baseball during the summer before his senior season. Russell can play for the Rockies minor league teams and still play football for us, but he wouldn't be able to play his fourth year with the baseball team.

6/8/2010 2:36:45 PM

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.


Nc state has the worst luck in the fucking world. We are going to lose our qb and rb who are undrafted in football while carolina returns an entire defense that would be drafted?

They return guys like hansborough, lawson, felton, mccants, davis every fucking year while we lose guys like baker, powell, simmons, wilson, tulloch, morris every year.

It doesn't make any fucking sense

6/8/2010 2:54:30 PM

maybe we recruit stupider and poorer kids than they do

6/8/2010 2:58:27 PM

how did he get drafted so high? wasn't he barely playing baseball?

and if i'm wilson, i'm gone.

6/8/2010 3:03:11 PM

how are we behind Glennon at QB? didn't Palmer get moved to DB?

press conference on NHL Network to announce Scott Arniel as Blue Jackets' new head coach


GO BLACKHAWKS!!!!!!!!

6/8/2010 3:08:38 PM

holliday was a football player as well

wouldn't be surprised if the rockies pony up the cash to take russell full time. balls

6/8/2010 3:11:42 PM

^^ haha wtf

Quote :

His name is Proctor, and he got moved to safety. He was supposed to have a cannon for an arm, so I don't know if the coaches will move him back.

Besides Glennon, Imhoff and Snotherly are the walk-ons. We've got big Tyler Brosius coming in as a true frosh, but I imagine he'll get the RED SHIRT.

6/8/2010 3:14:05 PM

^thanks for the correction. that's what i get for being lazy.

let's just pray we don't have to use another walk-on QB (i.e. Evans)

6/8/2010 3:18:46 PM

Typical TWW over reaction itt

6/8/2010 3:43:11 PM

^typical cowboy fan running his mouth.

But I do agree with you.

[Edited on June 8, 2010 at 3:51 PM. Reason : sorry had to say it.]

6/8/2010 3:50:49 PM

maybe russell can sign after the football season...

but if I were him, I wouldn't risk it. if the signing bonus is good, you take the money and not risk injury

[Edited on June 8, 2010 at 4:04 PM. Reason : draftees have to sign by August 15th or the team forfeits their pick]

6/8/2010 3:57:55 PM

Please don't leave, Russell!

6/8/2010 3:58:47 PM

NCStatetke, you need to sign up for another English class champ!

"maybe we recruit stupider and poorer kids than they do"


Stupider is not a word college graduate. If you are comparing two or more objects using such phrase:


Carolina's recruits are more stupid than the Wolfpack.

or you'd say-

Carolina has the most stupid football recruits of any ACC school.

Okay, NCStatetke, your edumakaction lezzon has been prezented for the day!

6/8/2010 4:04:11 PM

remember when Adam Simons left the program

6/8/2010 4:05:16 PM

Yes, Russell stay and play through this year and leave at the end of the football season! Our chances are unlimited with you behind center Russ, w/out you im not confident at all!

6/8/2010 4:05:30 PM

^ he's not reading your message. maybe you should type in caps to get his attention

ps: i'm willing to bet you still leave Santa a note before you go to bed on xmas eve.

If Russel leaves then TOB's job is on thin ice

6/8/2010 4:12:34 PM

perhaps we should send the lion to denver

6/8/2010 4:21:24 PM

I'd be happy for him if he chooses to leave. It's the best decision for him more than likely.

He made it worth watching an otherwise turd of a football team.

6/8/2010 4:30:18 PM

i wonder if there's a return policy on my LTRs if he leaves...

or at least the tix i already bought this year

6/8/2010 4:32:10 PM

I'd be shocked if he dosen't go. Why stick around & possibly get hurt playing FB & his career could be up in smoke. Which mean NCSU FB season - Down da shitta again.

6/8/2010 4:32:25 PM

6/8/2010 4:33:32 PM

Adam Dunn was a QB too. Russell could be the next Adam Dunn...or not considering Dunn is like 6'8", 300+.

He can sign with the Rockies, get a signing bonus, and still play for us. He just has to pay his own tuition to do it like that.

Jake Locker and Dennis Dixon did the same thing.

^just bitching a little. I'm keeping the tix.

Although I wouldn't mind the fire getting a little warmer under obriens seat

6/8/2010 4:49:58 PM

the fire is already warm under his seat

if he weren't 3-0 against UNC people would already be calling for his head

6/8/2010 4:51:53 PM

^ sooooooo true

6/8/2010 5:04:01 PM

If all of you think our season is going to suck anyway, wouldn't it be a good thing if RW left? An extra year for Glennon to gain experience...

For the record I want RW to come back because I don't think we will be as bad as most of YOU PEOPLE. However, if he does leave it's not like we have a Marcus stone or Jay Davis starting.

Perfect situation for Russell: gets drafted and then gets to come back for football.

Also, Glennon gets time to continue developing!

he made an announcement a few minutes ago that he's staying, per 99.9 the fan.

a) Firefox recognizes "stupider" as it does not put the red squiggly line beneath it
b) dictionary.com recognizes it
c) it should be "...English class, champ!" and "...not a word, college graduate."
