My expectations for the season were to not open our mouths for both Duke and UNC to piss in for the 30th season in a row.

3/22/2013 8:56:05 PM

we started out that way, but opened it back up halfway through >.<

3/22/2013 9:02:06 PM

The intelligent among us were predicting this outcome in December.


You just don't magically become better during the year. You need to be blowing out inferior competition during the year. We never did that, so we correspondingly sucked balls in the post season.

Another year, another season where we suck our rivals dick

Maybe we should start a new rivalry with Florida Gulf Coast once we leave the ACC.

We should have listened to Skoalkan

If we had put 20 more points up on St Bonaventure we would have won today

3/22/2013 9:35:23 PM

Wait until next year... if you thought this year was disappointing.

3/22/2013 9:37:18 PM

Absolutely, if we were capable of putting 20 more points on st boneventure, we would have won today's game.

Margin of victory against crappy teams is a very good predictor of March success.

The idiots are in denial over this. The intelligent people know that blowouts matter.

Maybe I missed this season but didn't we split with both of them?

3/22/2013 9:39:17 PM

Kansas State had some nice blowout wins.

3/22/2013 9:42:26 PM

You know who blows teams out? Florida.

3/22/2013 9:46:13 PM

2013 Preseason ACC Champions. Never forget.

3/22/2013 9:46:38 PM

We get a banner for that, right?

3/22/2013 9:57:18 PM

I'm going I wear my "nothing can be finer than beating carolina 91-83" t-shirt from gopack Sunday during the UNC game after watching a pump up video by Ian Dunne.

3/22/2013 10:01:15 PM

Put the banner right beside the Old Spice and John Wilkes Booth

your incredible foresight notwithstanding, i don't see how you can be pleased w/ the outcome of this season unless you're only here to troll tww.

3/22/2013 11:10:01 PM

Want some realism? Program is fucked under Gottfried. Guy cant coach. We wont be in the postseason next year.

3/23/2013 2:37:54 PM

I think for the long-term health of the program, Leslie and Zo need to go. Let the young hungry guys take their lumps next year and then see what happens after that

3/23/2013 3:29:07 PM

Yeah, I don't see NCAA for us next year unless Warren and Purvis improve massively in the off-season.

3/23/2013 3:31:17 PM

^^This is the idiot logic that led to favoring Mike Glennon over Russell Wilson

3/23/2013 3:34:38 PM

3/23/2013 3:35:27 PM

Except that RW's attitude and play elevated those around him. The same is not true for CJL, so no it's not the same idiot logic. Thanks though

Cutting Russell Wilson was the death of nc state football. I cant see the program ever recovering.

State basketball is dead for now. Looked like it had a chance to recover for a second there but its gone

3/23/2013 3:40:51 PM

Would you wear that Guy Harvey shirt? There's another one on there that's more "beach like".

3/23/2013 3:42:31 PM

If the current group of freshmen and this incoming recruiting class stay for a couple of years we'll be sitting pretty. If not it could be ugly.

Hi rallydurham

3/23/2013 4:18:08 PM

it's scrumples

3/23/2013 4:25:12 PM

nope.

3/23/2013 4:27:08 PM

Grumples gotta grump

3/23/2013 4:31:58 PM

So before the thread dies and is forgotten, can we talk about what went wrong? Like realistically, why was this season disappointing?

I like this scarf. No real championships to hag our hats on of late, so why not a simple: NC State, we exist.

The Road to Ruin
The 2012-13 Wolfpack team was a fraud because when they had the expectations that were heaped upon them in the preseason, they failed to “rise to the occasion” when it counted the most. It was Coach Gottfried's responsibility to coach this team up and get them to adjust and it was the team's responsibility to come together as one and put their own egos aside.

Losing to Wake (whose coach will be fired at this time next year), a weakened Florida State team, and Maryland were all inexcusable as fuck!

NC State has been in the first round of the ACC Tournament for 14 out of the last 21 years, the most for any team in the NCAA and seven years in a row. It is worth noting that out of the seven years that we didn’t meet that dreadful fate, two of those years (1999 & 2000) were when the ACC changed the bracket because they got tired of everyone picking on Les Robinson.

[Edited on April 3, 2013 at 12:24 AM. Reason : changes]

Les Robinson wasn't the coach in 1999-2000

4/3/2013 1:16:15 AM

Only locked because we have next years thread up. All this thread will serve to do at this point is people shitting all over the team and players.
