TheChosenOne Posted December 15, 2020 Posted December 15, 2020 Swapping NC State for Evansville is certainly a significant pickup for our schedule. NC State is currently one spot ahead of us in the Pomeroy rankings at #36 (for comparison, Evansville is #316). NC State is 3-0 having last played on December 3rd (had games cancelled with William & Mary on 11/30, UConn on 12/5, and Florida Atlantic on 12/12 and their game with Louisville on 12/16 has been postponed). Their wins are against Charleston Southern (95-61), North Florida (86-51), and UMass Lowell (90-59), so this will be their first significant test. In the current Pomeroy rankings, Charleston Southern is #290, North Florida #297, and UMass Lowell #222. Jericole Hellems from Chaminade is off to a nice start in his junior season averaging 14.0 points (57.1% from the field), 3.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.7 steals. Quote

The paperwork isn’t finalized (at least that’s what I think this means), and the school isn’t going to release a statement until everything is done and official. Quote

Also, Jeff Goodman saying the same thing about a game. Quote

wgstl Posted December 15, 2020 Posted December 15, 2020 oddly worded, or NC state is playing two games over here Quote
shempie Posted December 15, 2020 Posted December 15, 2020 Great news. Let's hope TF keeps them focused on tonight. Don't want/need to look past ISU. Also worried a little about the cumulative effect of 3 games in 5 days. Legs could be a bit heavy by Saturday. Quote

JMM28 Posted December 15, 2020 Posted December 15, 2020 That is a great pickup, especially getting a team like that to travel here. Quote
dlarry Posted December 15, 2020 Posted December 15, 2020 That NCST tourney game was the ultimate in emotional rollercoasters. I started off anxious then got angry. Followed up by 45 minutes of depression. Then started to get excited followed by nervous and finally pure joy. One of the most amazing sporting events I’ve ever witnessed. Quote

The Wiz Posted December 15, 2020 Posted December 15, 2020 NC St and The Bills are both A rated. How tough is NC St....about the same as LSU in difficulty. I will have the Wolfpack / Bills numbers after we play Ind St. Our next 3 games (over the next 5 days) look like this....B- A A- SOS looking much better... The count down to a sweep (and an AP Poll Ranking ) begins tonight starting at 3. Quote
