GET ON THE STICK, HERB
3/20/2009 3:53:22 PM
We need to start hitting our free throws.
3/20/2009 4:36:13 PM
Syracuse is going to be a tough game. Hopefully Harden shows up for 40 minutes for that game.
3/20/2009 4:44:04 PM
Congrats to Herb! Great to see him doing well out west and getting his career winning percentage in the big tourney over .500!
3/20/2009 4:45:34 PM
Not pretty at all, but this tournament is about win and move on.[Edited on March 20, 2009 at 4:52 PM. Reason : ]

Anyone see packpride? Those idiots are pulling hard for ASU to lose. Sad bunch of people on there. Almost feel sorry for them.
3/20/2009 5:05:35 PM
i was pulling hard for ASU to lose, but only because they were one of the upsets I had in my bracket
3/20/2009 5:11:47 PM
^^What's so sad about Pack Pride pulling hard for ASU to lose? They'd probably say it was sad to see a guy on an NC State message board pulling hard for ASU to win.I'm indifferent personally. I've got ASU in the Elite 8, so I want to see them win.
3/20/2009 5:15:53 PM
survive and advancenice to see they can when even when harden is ice cold
3/20/2009 5:45:04 PM
syracuse/ASU will be a great matchup.. realistically I think the Orangemen by 6 or 7.. but pulling my heart out for Herb to get the upset.
3/20/2009 5:46:17 PM
SU will win by 10+mark it down

What's pathetic is all the guys on PP who would cheer for UNC over ASU
3/20/2009 6:17:44 PM
^I haven't bothered to check PP but that is kind of sad if it's true, I hate ASU (for reasons other than Sendek mostly) but not as much as I hate UNC[Edited on March 20, 2009 at 6:21 PM. Reason : .]
3/20/2009 6:19:23 PM
I was only there because of the mentioned above. First time I've bothered to read it in years.And yeah, it's true, a bunch of them were anticipating pulling for UNC.
3/20/2009 6:27:53 PM
yep PP is doodoo
3/20/2009 6:33:30 PM
on PP, they're still saying that it looked like the same ol' weave and heavedoes anybody else think that Herb's ASU offense looks like the offense he ran here during the end of his tenure?
3/20/2009 7:12:39 PM
i'm pulling for boeheim to spank him on sunday, but if herb somehow gets all the way to UNC, theres absolutely no way I could pull for UNC over Herb...ever
3/20/2009 7:13:55 PM
I love Herb Sendek.I'd love to see him beat Carolina in the tourney. fucking love it.
3/20/2009 7:15:54 PM
wow...they have a LONG way to go before that
3/20/2009 7:16:45 PM
if herb beat UNC, my only complaint would be that UNC didnt go out early enough
3/20/2009 7:18:03 PM
As an ASU fan, my only knock on their offense is that down the stretch they get tentative and elect to run down the clock as opposed to running their offense, although this is a problem with most teams who are leading in the tournament.
3/20/2009 7:18:28 PM
3/20/2009 7:27:16 PM
out of curiosity, why are you an AU fan?
3/20/2009 7:34:28 PM
^I think its his parents who went there.
3/20/2009 7:42:24 PM
well there we go
3/20/2009 7:55:09 PM
^yeah, both my parents are UofA alumni, and a bunch of my family still lives in Tucson, I've been to a number of Football/Basketball games there too
3/20/2009 8:11:49 PM
And you had the audacity to gripe at me for rooting for 2 teams?
3/20/2009 8:13:16 PM
Herb is my fatherand I consider Glasser and Abbott to be my brothers
3/20/2009 8:30:58 PM
3/20/2009 8:38:52 PM
2 weeks? I've been a fan since the days we were chanting PLO
3/20/2009 8:42:44 PM
^yeah right dude, that's why you only started posting in this thread like 3 weeks ago. My problem has never been with people pulling for 2 schools, but pulling for ASU just because Sendek went there is bullshit, why not pull for a school you actually have a connection to?
3/20/2009 8:49:18 PM
Speaking of ASU, the school I pull for, Obama doesn't pick us to go past round 1, but is giving this year's commencement address.
3/20/2009 8:51:10 PM
3/20/2009 8:52:43 PM
I look at pulling for ASU like I look at pulling for San Diego.I was here when Herb and Philip were here. They both did a lot for the basketball and football programs respectively and gave me a good 4 years here (which a lot students before and after me can't say). So I'll follow both of their careers and cheer for all teams that they are involved in.And don't give me the "alumni" bull shit either. Herb gave just as much to this program as Philip did.
3/20/2009 8:56:25 PM
By saying I'm not allowed to root for ASU because of Herb, what you're really saying is that I have to cheer for every decision made by NCSU administration no matter its effect on me.
3/20/2009 8:58:25 PM
3/20/2009 9:01:13 PM
It's a lose lose for NCSU boosters regarding Sendek. If he wins out west, we look foolish for putting the heat on him no matter how justified it was, which it was. On the other hand, I always find it incredibly insincere when a program gets rid of a coach and then proclaims that they wish him success in the future. No you don't, you want to see him crash and burn and you want it to justify your decision to can said coach (and by "you" I mean the administration and boosters that put the heat on him and caused him to leave, internet experts are not relevant). If a program really thought highly of said coach, they'd never get rid of him, or force him out, whichever you prefer to label it.
3/20/2009 9:18:41 PM
I definitely think people should pull for schools they actually have a connection to, the NFL is totally different since practically no one has a personal connection to any team so I could care less if someone pulls for San Diego or the Patriots. It really irks me how all these motherfuckers have come out of the woodwork in the past 2 weeks acting like they're the biggest ASU fan in the world, when in reality they only started giving a fuck when they realized ASU was good. Maybe jordanfromnj fits this profile, maybe he doesn't but all this "we" talk with ASU is retarded, since he not only has no connection to ASU, he's never visited the campus, seen them play a game live or anything else.
3/20/2009 9:19:20 PM
^I don't think you analyzed that correctly.If he does well, then it's a lose situation because it looks like we shouldn't have pushed him out (and don't even bring that "he left on his own accord" shit...we definitely forced him out). But at the same time, if he does well, we can always fall back on the "he wasn't going to get it done here and we needed to move on" spiel. But that only works if we actually do well ourselves.If he does poor out there...then it makes us look good.So its kind of a win/lose situation.
3/20/2009 9:21:24 PM
I refer to the Bears/White Sox/Cards/Blues/Bulls as "we"and I see no problem with that at all

3/21/2009 1:39:54 AM
^a lot of ridiculous shit has been said in this thread, especially over the past couple of weeks, what do you want me to say? This jordanfromnj kid constantly argues with me about points I didn't make, without even reading what I posted, which is why I keep calling him retarded. Way to actually address the content of my posts, and not just a word or phrase I've repeated I'm sure If I cared enough to look through a bunch of your posts I could find a word or phrase you've repeated and call you out, but I'm not a tool. Your intelligence reflects poorly on NCSU when you can't find a better way to disprove my points than by showing I've repeated a word.[Edited on March 21, 2009 at 3:15 AM. Reason : . ]

Are you fucking retarded? You are getting trolled in a troll thread.

What's retarded is saying that I argue with you when you're always the one spewing your crap after I post something.
3/21/2009 11:15:46 AM
we'll see who the one spewing crap is when ASU loses to Syracuse after you repeatedly claimed they were going to the Sweet Sixteen or Elite Eight
3/21/2009 11:33:36 AM
we're gonna have a tough one with syracuse but i think we can pull it out and we can get a win for us and our program and our team
