Looking at the schedule, I really hate ending the regular season at Purdue. We need to improve a bunch between now and then because that one has the potential to be soul crushing ugly.

Wow. Nice get for N.C. State -- beat out some real heavyweights (LSU, Kentucky, Memphis, Kansas) for the nation's No. 1 point guard for the class of 2023.

I remember the last time NC State got a big time guard and we're supposed to be super good... Remember Rodney Purvis? Anybody? That 12-13 team of their really underperformed as well with CJ Leslie, Scott Wood, Lorenzo Brown and freshmen TJ Warren, Rodney Purvis and Tyler Lewis.

Dennis Smith Jr was also a huge get for them. He was top 10 in the class and would have been an McDonald's All American had he not enrolled early

Yea he didn't pan out quite as they thought he would. Cat Barber was really good for them though. But they just never lived up to the hype as a team.

Gottfried's first season was 11-12 and they ended up going to the Sweet 16 and losing to Kansas by just 3. So they were highly thought of going into the next season. Returned Leslie, Brown, Wood and Howell. Added the #14 class in the nation with Purvis, Warren and Lewis... They started out the season 6th and ended up going 24-11(11-7), unranked and losing to Temple in the first round of the tourney. So Indiana was on a path to actually play them. Which would have been really interesting. A team that really ended up living up to expectations for the most part and a team that fell flat on its face.

Everyone was worried about them as the 8 seed and the 9 seed Temple beat them and probably should of beat IU that year.

They would have matched up well with us honestly. We liked to run and they had the athletes. Would have probably been a fun game. Temple uglied the game up which we struggled with. NC State would have probably been more free following.

Polls came out and the ACC had the #1 and I think like #36, #39, #40 and #41 in the AP Poll. More isn't always better. 15 teams is just too much for a conference and they are getting hit with the problems finally.

I got it in on mute but when nc state tied looked like a little fight broke out.

Virginia Tech is the second best team in the ACC in my opinion.   They are currently up 4 at Maryland with 3 min to go

Georgia just buries a 3 to go up 1 on Memphis with 1:48 to go
