our guys played hard tonight, and the were gassed at times tonight. Ross and Gantt played well enough for lots of minutes. Morsell was SOLID all game and hit some big threes. DJ/Joiner/T all balled out.
at the free throw percentage
I don't know what to do with a 4 game win streak, be happy??? 1/17/2023 10:36:57 PM |

They are a bad combo. You can't have two trying to provide color commentary simultaneously and no one actually covering the game. I think I heard more about Syracuse than I did about the teams on the court. 1/18/2023 7:42:16 AM |

I found them extremely annoying, Alexander wouldn't stop praising Antonelli, calling her the best basketball mind in the world and stuff. And they just kept talking and talking and talking about shit other than the game.
Any word about Duwona's absence? I know, he's not very good, but we're probably going to need him with Mahorcic and Clark out. Gantt has been surprising (with the exception of missing that three by about 6-feet last week, and a few dumb mistakes last night. 1/18/2023 9:01:54 AM |

It’s impossible to feel good about playing at chapel hill. I hope to be proven wrong. But it’s just a house of horrors for us. We forget how to play basketball when we step on the court there. Luckily we’re not in a position where we absolutely need this win vs UNC. But damn it would be nice. 1/18/2023 2:11:22 PM |

Tbf he was unc's beat reporter for a long time. On my Twitter timeline I rarely see anything super biased from him, but maybe I just have thicker skin than you!!

He likes to tweet really snarky bullshit about state. Also he somehow has a fucking Heisman vote despite not actually being a sports beat reporter now and voted for Drake Maye.
He's a talented writer and his non-sports stories are usually really good, but he's an insanely biased unc grad and fan. 1/20/2023 4:22:11 PM |

I don't know if this makes it better or worse for you but he's an nc state grad

Wait what
I see, a self-hating jew state fan.
But yeah voting Maye as third place in the Heisman vote is patently ridiculous.

I mean Maye was absolutely a top 10 QB this year. Top 3 no but it's not as wildish as voting like Mitch Trubisky as a Heisman finalist.

There's no way in hell Maye was anywhere close to the third best player in college football. He's a pretty good QB who put up huge numbers against a joke of a schedule, and then folded against every single decent defense they played.
But Carter was on a mission and wrote about how he deserved to be in NY for the trophy presentation even after ending the season on a losing streak where he got exposed as not being a transcendental talent at qb. 1/20/2023 6:12:27 PM |

He was more deserving of a 3rd place Heisman vote than freaking Stetson Bennett, who was invited to NY. So let's not act like the Heisman committee always picks the best 5 players to make the finals.
Also this is a pretty relevant topic to the 2022-23 NC State Basketball thread
