Some UGA insiders think Abson is “on the dotted line”. Abson taking his visit during G day (Spring football game) might seal it.

I could see why they say that but Miami has contacted him also and he’s from South Florida, isn’t he?

Depends on the scenario for me and who they go to. If they go to any other conference member, UNC, ECU, or Charlotte, I’d hope they fail. I wouldn’t be happy if they went to Duke, Wake or State, but I wouldn’t hope for their failure. Also depends on why they are leaving. For instance, in Xavion’s c...

Again, this obsession with everything UNC. The original comment stated that state fans were too far overly arrogant with little to no success to show for it adding that from a success standpoint, state has been more mid-major than anything over the 30 years. Looking at their overall success, this i...

Why do you keep bringing up the Heels when this discussion is purely about State & their mediocre as a program? No one has mentioned the Heels except you ... What is your obsession with Carolina? Why even bring them up when talking about this year's Final 4? Is it a jealousy thing? Or just obsessed...

No one was making $100k this past season.

It was not meant to read as an assertion that was the way it way, just a possible scenario.

I’d imagine if we have 2 players making $100k each, it would create some animosity among teammates. Especially, if the unpaid or underpaid are outperforming or performing at the same level as the paid. Do you only pay your top players or do you try to give some to all your contributors? $200k would ...

In conference name, sure. But in performance (which is what I'm arguing, but I think you know this), no. Their performance on the court over the past 30 years has been very mid-major, just stating truth. If you would like to keep on arguing for the greatness that is nc state basketball, by all mean...

And cash ?

It’s like a farm system. If we tie ourselves to an SEC school, they will cover the NIL.

Are we double A or triple A ?

Maybe we can tie ourselves to a successful P5 program and they send all their freshman 4 star players to us for a season to get game experience.

I can't imagine any of the guys transferring out will be starters in the ACC, but I could be wrong. Has there been ANY reports of guys we are looking at to bring in? I haven't seen any players list App as a possibility on social media. Someone mentioned Kerns made a bunch of JuCo offers a few weeks...

Do we have any idea yet of what caliber of mercenary we can hire for next season?

There’s really good players in JuCo and Division II. If they want to play for a P5, they can come here and show off their talents for a year like Spillers.

Best team money can buy.

Can’t argue with that!

disagree. Perception is reality or something like that is the saying? Many "power" programs have a mid-major perception. Although you are certainly entitled to your opinion, in this instance, your opinion is factually wrong. Mid-major is factually defined as athletic conferences in NCAA division I ...

Terence Harcum contacted by Virginia Tech

Abson may be Miami bound…

Like lipstick on a pig, being part of a power conference doesn't make 1 a power program. Example, in football, who has accomplished more? App or State? Actually, it does. And App accomplishing more doesn’t make us a power program, unfortunately. disagree. Perception is reality or something like tha...

I totally get the idea of pulling for in state schools to help our state's profile, I do as well at times. I don't think that changes the argument that, based on national/conference success in the past 30 years, ncstate is pretty mid major. Don't have to be "butthurt" to acknowledge this fact. Mid ...

I have no lost love for nc state. I enjoyed every moment of them losing on national tv. Their fan base is honestly the worst in NC when it comes to arrogance with nothing to back it. My hot take is they are a mid major program masquerading as P4 and need to get over themselves Ehh, no reason to be ...
