I'm not claiming that I watched 5,000 hours of film to determine that Campbell doesn't shoot threes.I'm looking at the fucking data and relaying to the casual NC State fan, hey this team doesn't shoot any fucking threes.Most people would appreciate being told a fact like that before they watch a game without having to do the leg work or spend the money to do so.Instead, I get idiots saying "OH MY GOD THEY SHOT A THREE I SAW IT!!!"

Dave Glenn does make long statements that in the end mean nothing. so maybe???

haha, still calling it a stadium.and we don't play defense to close the game.[Edited on December 29, 2011 at 9:06 PM. Reason : .]

omg we won
12/29/2011 9:06:06 PM
that dude is an idiot...never heard of any basketball arena being called a stadium

Once again, Reynolds Stadium. We're perfect there.
12/29/2011 9:07:09 PM
Alright we got out of this one. Thank god. Howell was a monster tonight and Lobo looks ready for ACC play.Discouraging to see Wood not playing heady basketball and CJ Leslie regressing to his former self though.We're going to lose quite a few games based on our lack of depth. We've just got to hope to improve dramatically over these next 3 weeks before we hit the meat of our schedule. We need one guy off our bench to step up whether its Painter, TDT, Harris, Vandy, or Johnson. We just need to get something out of 2 of them for god's sake.

Well that was closer than I expected it to be.
12/29/2011 9:28:53 PM
Campbell won at Iowa, so they aren't Northeastern/Morehead State bad, but we still should have won easily. Hopefully them or UNCA win the Big South.
12/29/2011 9:31:54 PM
Iowa sucks (sub top 100) this year. Campbell is practically ranked next to Northeastern.This was a horrible game, period.We only won because they are one of the worst rebounding teams in the country and they have no depth and tired late against us.The bottom line is that we play zero defense. That won't cut it when we play real teams. We have to have a remarkable ACC resume because we sucked OOC when we had a chance and the ACC isn't good enough for us to go 8-8 this year and expect anyone to give a shit.
12/29/2011 9:50:57 PM
thank god we won... had the misfortune of sitting in a section full of young campbell girls
12/29/2011 9:53:34 PM
Just got back from the game. Campbell played there ass off and hit some tough shots (they also hit most of the open shots we gave them). They are a dirty motherfucking team. The team seemed to really buy into the keep on fouling cause they can't call them all mentality (and then they got makeup calls when the foul disparity gets too large). We need to find a lineup that can force turnovers. It may mean sitting Wood so we get some more speed out there. CJ Williams also played like a man possessed after the intentional where he was getting stepped all over. Every loose ball he was busting his ass to get to. Oh and Leslie looked sick.
12/29/2011 9:58:30 PM
God face stop jacking off Pomeroy already.Campbell also shoots the 3rd highest percentage in the country fanboy.[Edited on December 29, 2011 at 10:06 PM. Reason : those rankings mean very little pre-conference play]

We fired our coach last season and are currently 9-4 with no bad losses....chill the fuck out. If you expected a NCAA bid right away, then that's your own damn fault.
12/29/2011 10:07:43 PM
JUST GOT BACK FROM THE GAME!and here's some stats:Brown had 24 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 assists Gottfried needs to tell him to drive everytime he has the lane.Howell had 17 points and 17 rebounds. He makes too many stupid mistakes, but I don't get the Howell hate.That said, most of that game was pretty ugly and scary. And I got to sit beside a 15-yr old campbell fan who weighed about 250.
12/29/2011 10:13:08 PM
Wow face couldn't of been more wrong
12/29/2011 10:13:14 PM
Campbell shoots a high FG% because they dont shoot 3pointers and they play a bunch of shit teams.Quit taking numbers out of context. This is why intrepretation is worth more than data mining.And the sample size is plenty high enough. We aren't a tournament team right now. We need vast improvement and some luck to get in.Personally, I don't see it happening. And if doesn't everyone should be held accountable, because we certainly should be a tournament team with a top 20 offense.This is pathetic. There is no reason not to play any defense. Defense is a function of talent and effort. I refuse to believe this is a talent issue given our roster.^ Can you name specifically what I was wrong about? I said they don't shoot threes, they suck at rebounding, they have zero depth, etc.... All of that was right... what did i miss?This is exactly what I am talking about. Just a message board full of trolls incapable of having a conversation based on facts & reality.[Edited on December 29, 2011 at 10:17 PM. Reason : a]
12/29/2011 10:15:46 PM
hey face, earlier you said we're a team of 4 and 5 stars. You were wrong, we only have 3.
12/29/2011 10:17:18 PM
^ There are five people on the court at one time in basketball and only ~3 of them matter, this isn't football. The rest just take up space.
12/29/2011 10:19:28 PM
oh, so you were right when you said that. got it.
12/29/2011 10:19:58 PM
We are a team mostly comprised of good basketball players who were highly recruited.Campbell is not.Of our players who were not highly recruited, all of them receive next to no playing time or are seniors.Of the players who are given the opportunity to impact the game most are players that the average teenage girl would identify as "good basketball players"Is that fucking descriptive enough for you?
12/29/2011 10:29:26 PM
12/29/2011 10:31:23 PM
^^Ok know-it-all. Where do we rank in the ACC? Because you also told us we were the worst football team. [Edited on December 29, 2011 at 10:31 PM. Reason : shut up already]
12/29/2011 10:31:31 PM
At the time I said that we were the worst football team in the ACC.Have you not forgotten the season? Who was worse than us at the time I said that? We improved dramatically over the season (a common TOB phenomenon that I credit him for) and we returned a ton of people from injury.I wouldnt be surprised if we pull the same shit next season and start off as doormats and end the season as a borderline top 30 team. That seems to be TOB's calling card.In the ACC right now we're a ~.500 team. We could improve and do better. We definitely should. There's no fucking reason we should be the worst defensive team in the past decade at NC State. Will it happen? I'm not sure. We're already halfway through the season and we haven't improved a bit. It's pretty frustrating to watch.

Not true, we were ranked behind both duke and Maryland at the time by a good margin.Some of you have no memory. Does anyone recall our first half of the season? We were terrible. Blown out every game and close wins vs jv teams
12/30/2011 10:10:40 AM
We lost our second game to WF by 7 points (34-27, not a blow-out).We lost to #21 GT by 10 points (45-35, not a blow-out).Both of these games we had a severely depleted defense.We beat Liberty 43-21, and South Alabama 35-13 (not close games against jv teams).You said we were blown out every game, and had close games against jv teams. Your statement was wrong, again.
12/30/2011 10:42:56 AM
^I agree on your GT and Wake points. I think we win those games with our final 5 game defensive line. Disagree about the 1AA games, in particular South Alabama. They could have easily won that game, but of course, that was also with our depleted line.

12/30/2011 11:18:32 AM
I like how you conveniently left out our the two games we lost by 30+ points and the nailbiter over one of the worst teams in the country.I love your accuracy.And if you dont think those JV games were close I don't know what to tell you. I left at halftime both times embarrassed. Thankfully, TOB turned the season around and I'll give him some credit for that. But if he doesn't knock it off with the "suck the first half of the season and injure half the team in preseason" then he won't last much longer here.
12/30/2011 2:05:01 PM
You said "blown out every game". We were actually only blown out by Cincinnati (and FSU, but that wasn't even in the first half of the season). Your statement was very innacurate, and flat-out wrong. So who's conveniently ignoring the facts? Your are face, you are.
