Amaker has made the NCAA tourney once in 14 years. Ten of those in a power conference.

history is never on the side of state. Things just sort of work out to screw us.

4/5/2011 12:15:23 PM

AHA, I mentioned Wojo last night as a joke.

Follow me here though: PAT SUMMIT!

But, seriously, I think we should focus our energies on becoming the most obnoxious fans in sports. I wanna get really drunk and spit in the faces of Chapel Hill babies and say "fuck" a lot.

4/5/2011 12:18:58 PM

I really would like to see archie coach... it would be awesome...

even if it takes him a few years to get his sea-legs i think he will get them..

I will never lower myself to acting like a Buffalo Sabres fan.

Someone with a followed twitter account needs to post:

"From a source in the know, Phil Jackson is considering leaving the Lakers for the NCSU job!!!"

just to see how far it goes

Caulton Tudor gives 6 "under the radar" coaches...

4/5/2011 12:25:01 PM

I like the Murray State coach from that list

not a bad list, really

4/5/2011 12:32:31 PM

we really should've hired archie. i'd have been fine w/ that hire.

4/5/2011 12:35:48 PM

^That. And I would really like to know what truly went on with SS and GM and why neither would take a big pay raise to coach here.

4/5/2011 12:40:31 PM

i think im now more depressed that Caulton Tudor feels bad for us and is offering candidates

4/5/2011 12:41:19 PM

packpride says Marshall rushed to make an announcement to save face after being told by Yow that we've hired a mystery candidate.

Ernie says packpride is dumb.

4/5/2011 12:42:12 PM

Honestly, right now I don't think we could get any of those guys, save Cluess.

4/5/2011 12:43:13 PM

An unknown as a college head coach, former State player

Yow was never going to consider that after Lowe

4/5/2011 12:44:30 PM

calm down guys, i'm gonna PM DY had and tell her ive got to go back to work in 15min and to just go ahead and announce it already.

4/5/2011 12:46:15 PM

I would not have been OK with Archie

that would be a Lowe-equivalent hire

I'd still take Tim Floyd despite the cheating

4/5/2011 12:46:43 PM

God I hope we have a coach before next week

This needs to happen.

4/5/2011 12:57:08 PM

nc state needs to learn that change is usually BAD. look at obama.

the little bit of sucess in football wasnt worth getting rid of the ultimate promoter in chuck amato. look what he did to get people talking, better marketing, a better stadium and facilities.

lowe was also a promoter and loved to wear the colors proudly. now youll get a boring coach that no one wants to give a big time contract or gets no nba players or no better arena and hype.

4/5/2011 1:04:40 PM

Tyndall at Morehead State is the type of coach I would like to see. He, or someone like him, can rebrand us. Pressing teams don't exist in the ACC, with Purnell. With at least a brand, it's a starting point to differentiate us to the media, fans,etc.

4/5/2011 1:05:24 PM

HOOPS

it has been too long

4/5/2011 1:06:03 PM

Go after Collins. Make State a little stronger and Duke a little weaker.

Win-Win

He has said multiple times he hated our previous administration and thought we were garbage because of it, but now is a "fan"-loves Yow, loves Woodson

4/5/2011 1:28:41 PM

I would love to have Pearl now, even if he has a postseason suspension next year. Since we haven't been in so long anyway it wouldn't be that big of a deal.

4/5/2011 1:29:44 PM

I was of the opinion that Bruce Pearl was the best option of everyone after the big names. The guy can coach and his NCAA offenses are relatively minor and frankly, I want a coach that constantly toes the line. They are the ones that win, plain and simple.

4/5/2011 1:33:56 PM

Are you people talking about 'Archie' talking about Archie Miller?

I'd rather not have a fucking wigger basketball coach thanks.

4/5/2011 1:35:40 PM

lolwut

4/5/2011 1:36:31 PM

4/5/2011 1:40:00 PM

I bet Archie hasnt changed at all since college!!

And no one wants him but if we are talking about hiring a K assistant I'd rather have a guy with the coaching pedigree of Archie who is also one of our own.

i actually ran into tubby saturday at the final four

he's not interested

ok i didnt ask, he looked like he was about to shit himself or he had lost a grandchild. or just senile. he was not looking and walked right into me.

maybe fleeing from the uk fans yelling his name. probably that.

I thought Davis said this was a terrible job?

Am I confusing him with every other national media nut? Where was this positive spin 2 or 3 weeks ago?

Nice call out.

^nah, Davis has been pretty fair IIRC. I think he called the donovan rumors nuts, but they were. I think most in the national media are genuinely surprised we didn't snag smart or marshall.

I just tweeted that at him, so now he can not respond directly

4/5/2011 1:57:05 PM

wasn't Seth Davis the one that made that video a couple of months ago about the state of NC State basketball? Where he basically told us to stop being bitches and accept our mid-tier status because we'd never be Duke/UNC

[Edited on April 5, 2011 at 1:58 PM. Reason : .]

4/5/2011 1:57:54 PM

Yeah Davis definitely said the exact opposite a month ago.
