The Paul McNeil Game™ NC State got a career-high 24 points from Paul McNeil in his first start and 23 assists on 29 made baskets in an 85-73 win over Wake Forest. Immediate takeaways for @ncstate247.bsky.social:

NC State DB Corey Coley Jr. is seeking a fifth year of eligibility in a lawsuit taken out against the NCAA on Friday. Coley is arguing that injuries at NC State and Maryland have set him back and should earn him additional years of eligibility.

You guys, it’s National Margarita Day. Chili’s really made a Lifetime movie about this momentous holiday. And it’s glorious. 🤣

High rolling this morning. Making a two-egg sandwich.

Certainly didn't have "Elon Musk calling a European Space Agency astronaut 'fully retarted'" on my bingo card, but here we are. We sink lower and lower each and every day.

NC State lost a game where it was outworked, outhustled, outplayed and outcoached early and never got off the mat after getting punched in the mouth. Full takeaways from the Pack's second 20-plus point loss in the last three games:

But freedom of speech, y'all.

NC State big man Brandon Huntley-Hatfield discusses the importance of the upcoming stretch, his health after missing multiple games, the team's morale after getting a win and more.

I will never look at alt text the same again after this post. 🤣

NC State won every game of its opening series against Fordham by way of run rule, concluding with a 19-6 win on Saturday. Chris McHugh, Alex Sosa, Brayden Fraasman and several others brought the boom for the #Pack9 in the win.

NC State's defense created an abundance of offense against Boston College, with 18 transition points helping lead the Wolfpack to a much-needed win. Jayden Taylor's 19 points and four steals helped pace the Pack to a 70-62 victory and snapped a nine-game losing streak.

That Trey Parker to Dennis Parker Jr. connection is working pretty well in transition. 👀

No foul on the guy taking an elbow to the nose? OK.

NC State is currently shooting 46 percent from the field, but is 2-12 on 3-pointers. The Wolfpack has missed its last eight triples. Still leading Boston College, 31-16, with 5:30 left in the first half.

Make that three ACC Champions back in the building for NC State vs. Boston College.

Under-8 TO: NC State 29, Boston College 16 Jayden Taylor leads the Pack with 11 points on 4-7 shooting with three steals in 11 minutes. Brandon Huntley-Hatfield with seven points in five minutes.

OMG THAT'S A THING THAT HAPPENED?!

Wolfpack royalty back in the building for NC State vs. Boston College. Former NC State stars DJ Horne, DJ Burns, Payton Wilson and Thayer Thomas are all sitting courtside.

Brandon Huntley-Hatfield finishing with authority?! This game has everything! NC State leads Boston College, 23-14, with 10:12 left in the first half.

Jayden Taylor through the first six minutes: 11 points 4-6 shooting 3 steals 2 rebounds 1 assist

Jayden Taylor is playing like a man possessed right now. He has all eight points and has created extra possessions with two steals and a tough rebound.

Jayden Taylor opens up the scoring with a 5-foot jumper then gets a steal on the inbounds pass to create another quick transition bucket. NC State out to a 4-0 lead and Taylor gets another steal.

NC State basketball continues its season Saturday at home against Boston College. Pack Pride has all of the details Wolfpack fans need to know entering the contest including how to watch, stream, odds and preview:

No. 13 NC State used two four-run innings in the seventh and eighth to run rule Fordham, 11-1, in the 2025 season opener. The #Pack9 got a strong start from Dom Fritton and homers from Alex Sosa and Chris McHugh to start off 1-0 to open the doubleheader.

Donald Trump just banned the word "Felon" inside the White House. I wonder why?

Totally normal things happening in our United States.

Bubba Wallace wins the Duel! Justin Allgaier advances to the Daytona 500 to get the No. 40 for JR Motorsports in the biggest race of the season! Dale Jr.’s team will race in its first ever NASCAR Cup race.

NC State's nine-game losing streak is tied for the longest in program history. The Wolfpack is now in danger of missing the ACC Tournament. Now the Pack is on track to be the first P4 team to go from a Final Four to finishing outside the Top 100 in the KenPom rankings the next year.

What a dude.

And now I suddenly want a MoonPie in MoonPieTown. This is how the world works now.

“Our defense has really kept us in games and tonight was a one-off … I hope it's a one-off." Kevin Keatts discussed NC State's loss to Louisville, the lack of consistency from players on a nightly basis and how young players stepped up late.
