just saying, he obviously has talent or UGA wouldnt have given him the time of day... could just need so nuturing and gym time

6/6/2014 4:01:27 PM

I'll add on to JB's trolling...

He would have been All-ACC last year if we had a QB to throw to him. We'll never compete with SEC teams if our star players leave to be walk-ons at their programs.

Since Jaybee will be at dinner for the next few hours, let's get back to real talk

Can we throw some paint and fur on this mug and get it in the tunnel where that dumb ass statue is? I'd like to see some bright red LED eyes and dry ice coming out of his asshole

I know brother, I know. Shit is getting old. Maybe this will open up another QB to come to State

Seems like a lot of our transfers go to GSU or UCONN.

it shouldn't be. brissett basically lost the competition to driskel because driskel was the more mobile QB.

[Edited on June 30, 2014 at 6:41 PM. Reason : i don't think we'll be going to a "drop-back" style, but i think we will see less designed QB runs.]

"Mississippi State and NC State announced a home-and-home series. MSU travels to NC State on September 12, 2020, and the Wolfpack will make a trip to Starkville onSeptember 11, 2021. The last time the two programs met was the 1995 Peach Bowl, when the Wolfpack beat the Bulldogs 29-25. NC State also leads the all-time series 3-2. With the SEC’s mandate of every team having to play a Big 5 conference opponent, you can cross off 2020 and 2021 for MSU."

What OOC teams do we play before then? ND doesn't count.

I'm assuming South Alabama, Elon, South Alabama, and Western Carolina.

Sooo much better than playing ECU year after year. Assuming we don't suck big time future potential recruits in MS will find out that NC State exists.

I just read amac's link.

Anybody have a link to what our depth chart looks like going into camp?

I can't find anything on PP

7/17/2014 7:07:39 AM

My best guess. I realize there are 12 players on offense, but it's to show the starter for that position. And we're moving to a 4-2-5 defense.

Offense

Pos. Name
QB Jacoby Brissett
RB Shadrach Thornton
FB Tyler Purvis
TE David Grinnage
RT Tyson Chandler
RG Alex Barr
C Quinton Schooley
LG Joe Thuney
LT Rob Crisp
WR Bryan Underwood
WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling
WR JuMichael Ramos


Defense

Pos. Name
DE Art Norman
DT T.Y. McGill
DT Thomas Teal
DE Mike Rose
LB Rodman Noel
LB Brandon Pittman
CB Niles Clark
CB Jack Tocho

The article on the football team from The Wolfpacker (July issue) was fantastic.

I strongly recommend reading it.

I wonder who the BC running back will be that will decimate us this year.

didn't that RB leave for the draft?

well now i dont know about all that

7/18/2014 12:55:12 PM

Bo Hines will start.

7/18/2014 1:57:59 PM

It all falls on Jacoby and the offense. They don't even have to score a lot; just hold the ball and pick up some first downs and keep the defense off the field.

Trying not to be too optimistic, but there are a lot of good pieces on this team -- DL, DB, WR, RB. If Jacoby and the OL can just be slightly above average, we could surprise some people.

7/18/2014 3:16:51 PM

Did any of you see Jaylen Samuels stats from his senior year? He had something like 2300 total yards (receiving+rushing) and 55 TDs, AS A FULLBACK/WR. WTF!

7/18/2014 3:21:57 PM

BRING BACK CHUCK O'CAIN

7/18/2014 3:22:47 PM

^^ Go check out his tape on youtube. One of the most impressive we had in this class.

I'm not sure if you're familiar with Mallard Creek, but he was playing some really good opponents in those highlights too.

7/18/2014 4:54:42 PM

^^I lol'd.

And ^^^^, I agree. As shitty as we were last year, we were in several games late (UNC, Duke, Clemson all come to mind). Imagine just average QB play. I see no reason 6-7 wins is unreasonable to expect this season. Besides FSU and Clemson our schedule isn't all that daunting by any stretch.

7/18/2014 5:44:06 PM

Bo Hines will start, mark that down. He looked sharp in the spring game and is only a freshman.

7/18/2014 7:26:17 PM

Wonder if Bo Hines will get the start at WR?
