I've Never Seen Tom O'Brien and Charlie Brown In The Same Place At The Same Time


"I never give them hell. I just tell the truth and they think it's hell."—Harry S. Truman

NC State football is undergoing a sea change right now. Former Marine Tommy O'Irish is laying down the law, and if you ain't on board, you're swimming your arse to Elon for the rest of your career.

Unfortunately, the attrition involving transfers and a suspension or two has come at the same time that the Pack has been hammered by injuries, which has become an annual occurrence. Jamelle Eugene, Toney Baker, Clem Johnson, Javon Walker and Donald Bowens, just to name a few. None of the above will be playing tonight when the Wolfpack kicks off the college football season at South Carolina. So, to sum up:

Best running back—out.
Best wide receiver—out.
Best offensive lineman—out.
Best safety—out.
Freshman quarterback—in.
90,000 hostile 'necks—in.

NC State's chances—in or out?

We'll find out tonight.

Go Pack.
