I thought it was just a game or two. didn't hear it was the whole season

10/22/2009 3:34:19 PM

^it was initially just a game.




why aren't we recruiting more cb's?

10/22/2009 3:37:26 PM

hunter may have gotten himself kicked off nc state as well

10/22/2009 10:43:14 PM

hasnt attitude issues been rumored for a while?

10/22/2009 11:11:41 PM

These kids are idiots. You are looking at a free ride to a major university and you do some stupid stuff and ruin it ALL. You go from getting a high quality education or possibly making it to the league and you throw it all away by doing some stupid, childish, highschool shenanigans? WTF is wrong with these kid's brains?!

10/22/2009 11:56:30 PM

JamesOn Curry called and said Fre'shad Hunter will probably be fine ...

10/23/2009 12:06:07 AM

...after he commits to ok state

10/23/2009 12:23:42 AM

didnt realize freshad lost his offer...ouch....

10/23/2009 10:18:47 AM

He lost his offer? Scout still says we've offered to him.

10/23/2009 11:40:07 AM

sorry...no longer committed....low interest

i hadn't heard he lost his offer...yet...

10/23/2009 11:52:14 AM

From Steve on PP:

Quote :

"Hearing State has backed off of him so wouldn't consider him a commitment. I don't know the details at this point."

Quote :

"He lost his offer? Scout still says we've offered to him."

LOL

yes, as I insinuated earlier, TOB has backed off Hunter. Most likely he was going to be in prep school this time next year anyway, so maybe this story isn't over yet but for now he's no longer with NC State

[Edited on October 23, 2009 at 11:56 AM. Reason : ^ direct quote from premium. my post is /gunzz]

10/23/2009 11:56:01 AM

so what did he acctually do ? and is that why we backed off him? or is there somehting more

10/24/2009 2:47:27 PM

what's up with all the teasers about Creecy? Don't tell me we're gonna lose him to Duke?

10/26/2009 9:55:48 AM

i hope not. i imagine cutcliffe is just trying his best, creecy lives in durham after all. i wouldn't think he'd decommit though. i mean, he'll probably play next year, right? no reason why he shouldn't.

10/26/2009 10:01:33 AM

^^His quotes in the scout article make me feel uncomfortable.

10/26/2009 10:12:09 AM

If he leaves for Duke he's making a big mistake. Just an irrational quick thought. Duke will be without Lewis next year. They won't be good.

10/26/2009 10:14:30 AM

Duke is coming after them hard and using this new found "success" to try and sway him.


Sounds like he is still on board and solid with us though.

[Edited on October 26, 2009 at 10:16 AM. Reason : a]

10/26/2009 10:15:37 AM

still committed and still solid to nc state

10/26/2009 7:48:56 PM

james washington out for the season with a knee injury. is this new news or old news?

nc state shit, fo sho.


If recruits value their knees, they shoudlnt come here.

10/26/2009 7:51:50 PM

if our team doesn't improve significantly before the end of the season, I wouldnt be surprised to see football recruits pulling C.J. Leslie's on us...

10/27/2009 11:04:02 PM

decommitting and recommitting(eventually....hopefully)?

"still committed and still solid to nc state"

very true. the elder Mr. Creecy had Steve run an article saying there was a misunderstanding regarding TC's commitment to NCSU. Mr. Creecy wanted everyone to know that his son is a man of his word and is solid to us

James Washington is not old news...he did something to his knee in practice but apparently no surgery is needed per TOB

10/28/2009 11:54:33 AM

So is the Hunter news the reason we are backing off of him, or is this just media rumors? We really need him here next season!

11/7/2009 3:28:10 AM

Hunter was a long shot to make it in next year, I think the plan was for him to prep or go to juco.

11/7/2009 11:06:25 AM

thanks for the update man.

11/8/2009 2:22:55 AM

David Amerson Commits!

11/8/2009 7:01:39 PM

Thank god! That's a commitment that we badly needed. Him and Dontae Johnson should be a good tandem in the secondary. Plus there is D.J. Green who could be a good SS if the staff doesn't move him to OLB.

11/8/2009 7:04:02 PM

Damn I hope he can tackle

11/8/2009 7:12:21 PM

amerson is a great pick up. he could probably even play cb if we need him to (and we probably will)

11/8/2009 7:19:42 PM

hell yea son

11/8/2009 7:22:01 PM

TOB can promise all recruits playing time because we will have 11 guys injured every season

11/8/2009 7:22:18 PM

have you seen our defense this year? TOB can promise playing-time the moment they get on campus regardless of injuries.

11/8/2009 7:36:03 PM

Great pick up. What other positions do we really need to fill up?

11/8/2009 7:55:58 PM

Supposedly Amerson isn't the only commit we got. Who's the other one?

11/8/2009 7:58:30 PM

The front page of Pack Pride calls him a "Georgia sleeper."

I imagine he didn't see much attention b/c his team just well plain sucks. They have only one win on the season, although to their credit they lost their last game by only one point. He plays both WR and DE for his school. Another reason why he hasn't gotten much attention was b/c he had some kind of really bad illness that kept him from playing the past two seasons. He also had to transfer from Statesboro to Portal this year. I'll reserve judgment for later, but he really does sound like the true definition of a sleeper, i.e. a kid that hasn't gotten pub for a number of reasons.

Quote :

"“Yes sir, I committed to NC State last Thursday,” said Rich. “Coach Bridge was really excited when I told him and he told me I was going to have to learn how to make the wolf sign. “State has been recruiting me for about two months. I’ve been researching them a lot online and I know it’s a good place for me to go to get a degree for after football.”"

Well he sounds like he's going to take his academics seriously which is always a good thing. Not everyone can play pro football, so players should take their academics seriously no matter how many stars they have.

11/8/2009 9:26:11 PM

rich sounds like the typical tob sleeper recruit

11/8/2009 10:11:50 PM

Is TOB known for getting sleeper recruits more than any other coach? IIRC, amato got a lot, too (russell wilson, for example). Just wondering if anyone has any data on this.

11/9/2009 12:44:13 AM

Every coach is known for getting sleeper recruits, well except maybe Pete Carroll and the Urban Meyer types. TOB though seems to have had more success with so-called sleeper recruits than other coaches. Hell look at Mathias Kiwanuka. That guy pretty much came out of nowhere and is now on the Giants. Ron Brace and B.J. Raji had no other major offers besides Boston College.
