How much should Philip and Gunner get paid? Plus, why that shouldn't have anything to do with State being cheap: patreon.com/tuffytalk/posts/…
Discourse on PR is extreme (as always). I’m somewhere in the middle. I think he brings most upside with finances and QB but also think asking him to be a traditional CFB head coach is iffy. Asking him to put a roster together is an awful idea. Can he be a CEO and delegate?
Interviewing Wilson is clearly doing somebody a favor but no clue why State is appeasing him, unless he’s willing to write a check. Maybe it was for a booster? Unlikely they are pressuring Rivers. Weird curveball. 🤷♂️
The response to the win over Campbell is about standards: patreon.com/tuffytalk/posts/…
I disagree with takes I've seen on Evans (and I don't think anybody has looked at Yalaho/Jurkovic when they complain):
-3rd on team with +16 in 15 minutes
-2 blocks, 1 assist, 1 three
-Campbell shot 46% around the rim
-2 dREB, need more there
I was uninspired by that effort:
-started down 10-3
-finished giving up 16-4 run
-76-38 in between
-nobody stood out other than Hammond + VAL
-poor dREB: 32% allowed
-7-12 on the bench had negative +/-
-lost TO battle by 5%
-FTR down from exhibitions at 32%
-Adams led in shots
I believe public perception I've seen is far too low for MBB because of how last season ended. I will be disappointed if this is a bubble team and think they have real upside if they can unlock defensively
I strongly disagree with wanting PR at GM and not HC. A modernized approach to GM/FO is the reason PR can work at HC. I don’t want PR in the trenches building a roster. If PR won’t sign before his season ends, hiring GM now is a compromise to let a group get started on next year.

Rivers wants to finish HS season (not sure why this needs to be a hold up).
Money for staff and roster still being sorted out (roster $$ hasn’t been talked about enough).
Philip Rivers to NC State is ‘heating up’ as Wolfpack eye the star alum to spark the program:
