I figured that, but I hope they don't plaster a bunch of Canes stuff on it.

10/28/2015 12:21:18 PM

Is the game on 11/8 an exhibition game and do we have any exhibitions before that?

10/29/2015 10:30:36 AM

to me, that looks like a cedric simmons statue, to me.

10/29/2015 10:36:44 AM

First game is 13th

10/29/2015 11:06:17 AM

If Cat isn't first-team ACC at the end of the year, we won't be dancing. Fuck Paige

10/29/2015 2:07:32 PM

Lol we'll make the NCAA

What a dumb statement.

10/29/2015 6:21:24 PM

Yeah. I thought Cat would get more preseason 1st team love. But in a 15 team league, it's pretty difficult to pick just the top 5 players. No shame in Cat having a pretty damn good year and still not making 1st team in the ACC. We need him to be really good, but us making the NCAAT isn't dependent on him being 1st team All ACC

10/29/2015 6:35:34 PM

I got my season tickets in the mail today, but didn't get my parking passes. Are they shipping these separately or did I just not get mine?

10/29/2015 9:57:30 PM

^^ it is dependent on Henderson though.

He is where our true scorer will be.

10/30/2015 12:52:10 AM

Yeah definitely dependent on Henderson and guys like the Martins taking a step forward. Cat should be fine.

10/30/2015 8:11:59 AM

^^^ I got my parking pass with my tickets. I would call to check.

10/30/2015 8:28:53 AM

I'm an idiot for not buying season tickets. NEXT YEAR I WILL.

10/30/2015 4:27:02 PM

Looking for 2-3 tickets for the Mich. game in December if anyone cannot go, etc.

Thank you in advance.

10/30/2015 5:00:41 PM

agreed. cat needs to keep being cat. we need henderson to start being lacey/turner

Game day

Anyone know if the video stream on GoPack.com is free or not?

11/8/2015 11:57:02 AM

Its free to me, except no audio

11/8/2015 2:14:50 PM

The fuck is this DJ bullshit?

11/8/2015 3:41:39 PM

Cat & Abu looked great. Henderson & Rowan need to be more consistent from 3, but they should be better as the year goes on.

Looked like Cody Martin was the first option at back up PG.

11/8/2015 4:51:31 PM

^^ Apparently it will be a season long thing

11/8/2015 7:43:21 PM

They should get rid of the pep band, because they played like 3 songs today. Get some real fans in those seats.

11/8/2015 7:45:25 PM

did Beejay look as trim on the court as he has in some recent pictures?

11/8/2015 7:46:54 PM

I saw him at the football game last weekend. he's slim as hell


(and according to that box score still can't shoot FTs)

11/8/2015 7:54:12 PM

i'm curious if no fast fight song at the end of the game was a protest of the DJ

Where was the game thread? Tww is letting me down.

11/9/2015 12:23:21 AM

It's an exhibition / preseason / summer league game. No need unless one of their guys pulled hammy today

[Edited on November 9, 2015 at 1:16 AM. Reason : might be out of game tomorrow]

11/9/2015 1:15:52 AM

Lacey also had a shitty preseason debut.

You guys just need to be prepared for a dropoff in outside shooting. Its not fair to expect these new guys to be elite 3pt shooters like Lacey, Turner and Wood. Those guys were some of the top shooters in the whole country and most good shooters will seem weak compared to them. Hopefully our post game improves enough to compensate for the dropoff in shooting.

I'm excited about having 5 defenders on the floor at all times this year. Those elite shooters weren't good defenders at caused a lot of breakdowns even though we were pretty strong on d the 2nd half of last season.

11/9/2015 6:01:24 PM

Some quality Backstreet Boys in the background there

11/9/2015 6:16:31 PM

11/9/2015 8:33:23 PM

yea it took real insight to tell us some of the best shooters we have arent here anymore. you must have heard of basketball before to know enough to make that analysis.

do you think our football team should prepare for a potential dropoff at qb next year?

11/9/2015 8:56:00 PM

no actually i don't. our qb is good but not great.

11/9/2015 9:05:33 PM

Early bracketology is already out...

Has us as a 6 seed

Debbie said bitch better have my money.

11/10/2015 11:15:09 AM

i'm totally cool with re-upping with adidas. especially for something like twice the money as the previous contract. saw something on twitter that we were #5 in the nation in terms of size of apparel deal. almost can't believe that. i think ND, Michigan, UCLA, and Texas were ahead of us.

11/10/2015 11:57:26 AM

And Adidas funnels recruits to us in basketball.

11/10/2015 12:04:25 PM

^yep

Every worthwhile basketball story on ESPN requires insider. Website just keeps getting shittier

what are the metrics there?

^ this breaks it down

http://www.wralsportsfan.com/nc-state-gets-on-par-with-acc-national-elite-with-new-apparel-deal/15075837/

11/10/2015 1:20:46 PM

well here's the list, but it's apparently been shot down by posters on PP. i just saw the tweet

Top 5 College Apparel Contracts:
Michigan -- Nike -- 10 Million/Year
Notre Dame -- Under Armour -- 9 Million/Year
UCLA -- Adidas -- 7.5 Million/Year
Texas A&M -- Adidas -- 7.1 Million/Year
NC STATE -- ADIDAS -- 6.45 MILLION/YEAR

it's based on dollars/year as you can see. but a few posters commented that wisconsin just got a ~9 mill/year deal with UA, so i have no clue as to the accuracy of this list.

and to be honest, i'm not even entirely sure what that dollar figure constitutes or entails. is that 6.45 mil/year the value of the apparel for all the teams plus retail/fan apparel?

edit: ^ that kinda answers my question

"NC State’s deal with Adidas will pay $6.45 annually in apparel and cash. "
