yeah reading their boards

they refer to us as moo-u and rednecks

i mean...they're texas

4/6/2006 2:19:04 PM

steers and queers

^^Idiot Carolina fans in camoflauge. Subversion from within.

4/6/2006 2:20:39 PM

you people obviously know nothing about Austin

im guessing we'll more than likely be seeing Brady here, unless something suprising happens and Barnes decides to leave Texas. i dont want to think about anyone other than that, b/c itll probably be some shitty alum like whittenburg or towe.

4/6/2006 2:24:02 PM

UT@A is one of the best schools in the country

compared to them, we are redneck trailer trash

4/6/2006 2:27:11 PM

well as long as you keep that winning attitude

4/6/2006 2:27:44 PM

Gayvin, they are still in Texas

4/6/2006 2:30:06 PM

hmmm....

I'll bet that if 100 students made posters of Rick Barnes and started chants on Tucker Beach, it would make the evening news.

I'll bet that if it made the news here, it would get press in Texas.

I'll bet that if it made the news in Texas, Rick Barnes would hear about it.

I'll bet that if he heard about it, he would think more about the job.

I'll bet you couldnt get 100 State students together without a keg involved.

mmmm, beer, I need one. Work sucks. Maybe I will leave early today.

4/6/2006 2:30:54 PM

ahaha im jk guys

fuck Texas

4/6/2006 2:31:17 PM

they are texas

they should probably keep that in mind

i mean seriously, texas

4/6/2006 2:33:09 PM

ITS OFFICIAL...

Paul Hewitt to South Florida, Barnes to take GT job

just on the NBC affiliate in Tampa

4/6/2006 2:33:40 PM

that doesnt even make sense

4/6/2006 2:34:41 PM

If DT is qualified to be a head coach, then so is Jules. State fans idolize him, he has great work ethic, and pack pride.

Julius Hodge for head coach.....and president.

4/6/2006 2:36:38 PM

why not? usf fired robert mccullum this morning. hewitt wanted to coach somewhere where he could have access to the home of the church of scientology.

4/6/2006 2:36:46 PM

What did ASU have to pay us to buy out Herb's contract? Has that been made public yet?

4/6/2006 2:38:40 PM

Quote :

"Chris Wright’s mother has indicated to NC State that there is a great chance that her son would remain committed if “certain” coaches were hired at State. Barnes was one of those coaches."

I wonder what other "certain" coaches Wright would play for.

ASU may not have paid anything because Herb left on his own.

4/6/2006 2:44:04 PM

Herb left on his own, but he left while was still under contract to NCSU. Unless he had an out clause for ASU in there (highly unlikely,) some money should be coming NCSU's way.

4/6/2006 2:46:29 PM

ESPN just reports that we are talking with Brady of LSU

4/6/2006 2:46:44 PM

^^ or draft picks!

4/6/2006 2:47:00 PM

Here we go, put your letdown caps on...

4/6/2006 2:52:46 PM

Unless there is a specific buyout claus, then a coach can leave whenever he wants without having to pay anything. I'm pretty sure we didn't have anything like that in Herb's contract, so he is free to leave. There has been talk there would be something included in RB's contract though if he does come here.

guy on pp shot a video of barnes in raleigh yesterday

4/6/2006 3:03:47 PM

need more info (speculation)

4/6/2006 3:28:21 PM

Ok, what's the deal on Brady. I don't know much about him.

4/6/2006 3:36:13 PM

press conferene @ 4??

4/6/2006 3:37:07 PM

Looking like John Brady, as far as a story with some actual substance behind it, and not a bunch of smoke and mirrors.

I'd love to have Barnes, but Brady beat Duke and got LSU to the final four. State fans couldn't complain much, I don't think.

4/6/2006 3:38:00 PM

^^ rly?

4/6/2006 3:46:53 PM

LOOKS LIKE SETON HALL MIGHT HAVE A COACH

4/6/2006 3:48:58 PM

ok, so we now know we wont get manhattan's coach!

4/6/2006 3:50:07 PM

gonzales from manhattan if you dont want to click the link

no news of a press conference that i can see......at least not for us

4/6/2006 3:51:12 PM

for those interested, just saw this in a friend's aim profile (she's in sg):

Quote :

"ETHICS OF SPORTS with LEE FOWLER! THIS THURSDAY! 7-8pm Senate Chambers (2nd floor Witherspoon) Bring Questions! "

4/6/2006 3:52:01 PM

He will probably get a better turnout if we have a coach by then.

4/6/2006 3:53:07 PM

Quote :

"and told ESPN.com Thursday that he is scheduled to meet with GMU athletic director Tom O'Connor on Friday to discuss a contract extension. Larranaga said he wants to stay with the Patriots"

Me either i hope he stays

[Edited on April 6, 2006 at 4:06 PM. Reason : s]

4/6/2006 3:56:00 PM

I dont want Larranaga anyways.

4/6/2006 3:58:27 PM

For anyone who is interested, I was doing some research since Wilbon said that George Mason was a better school and also bigger....we're bigger by about 4000...around 22000 undergrads. They also admit 80 percent of their applicants, we admit 66 percent.


the University of Texas @ Austin....has close to 37000 undergraduate students, and admits over 12000 per year, which is just over 50 percent of their total applicants I think. Thats pretty impressive.







Except for the fact that they can only draw about 10,000 on average to a basketball game, even considering their stadium is just slightly smaller than ours.

And they wonder why we think we have a chance at Barnes (I dont personally, but I konw some people who do )

[Edited on April 6, 2006 at 5:16 PM. Reason : ]

4/6/2006 5:14:34 PM

I think you should e-mail stat-boy and tell him to step his game up

4/6/2006 5:18:24 PM

haha, hell yeah i should. Nobody gives a fuck about NC State though

4/6/2006 5:19:59 PM

well a poster on PP is all "i'm a benchwarmer at state and rick barnes will be our coach next year, we had a team meeting saying who our next coach would be"


hahahaha

I saw that too, i thought to myself, time for a IP trace.

4/6/2006 5:34:53 PM

now thats a lie
i know kids on the team and there has been no such meeting

4/6/2006 5:35:03 PM

I BET YOUR FRIENDS ON THE TEAM DONT WANT TO GET IN TROUBLE, ITS A CONSPIRACY!!!!
