Yes but why does that have to make sense when coming from a UNC fan?

[quote=11835162]Post by NCSUclassof90[/quote] Ditto,,,and how in touch can douggie be? We all know that &quot;arrove&quot; is a verbatim quote from a paper written by a UNC football player describing his arrival at Chapel Hill in yet another classic example of the academic incompetence of many UNC athletes. (Yes UNCers, the above is what is indentified as a PARAGRAPH).

There weren't any fans really suggesting that Saban would come to State. Most were rival fans trolling as State fans and a few were tongue in cheek.

Silly to assume any comments of that sort were serious

I don't know; I think Yow is all about excellence, and when she doesn't see a coach achieving what they should, she fires them and hires someone who can do the job.

As usual, you take the high road, korn:) Well said.

Wow - very impressive accolades. Good for Yow, and good for State.

[quote=11835520]Post by NCSU72[/quote] I think they made a good choice, I was ridiculed for 2 or 3 years here for saying O'Brien needed to go. He was a bad recruiter, a bad in game coach and had a losing ACC record in a very weak conference. As for the insanity you refer to that is present in these forums, I was just calling out those that say such ridiculous things as everyone else on here calls out those with stupid comments.

Some awesomely positive comments in this article from people who know him: [Click the article link for the full comments/credits]

[i]What they are saying about Dave Doeren:[/i]

&quot;What Dave has done here in two seasons has been unprecedented,&quot;

&quot;Coach Doeren is a complete players coach, he earns respect the second he walks in the door. He is an extremely motivated and exciting person to be around.&quot;

&quot;Dave Doeren is one of the rising stars in college football. He cares deeply for his players and fans. The Pack will be in for exciting times.&quot;

&quot;Coach Doeren is the most intelligent and loyal coach a player could ask for. His guys always take the field knowing exactly what to do, and play their guts out for him. He gets the best out of his players and he is a winner.&quot;

&quot;He's a real gem - a young guy, very enthusiastic. He's a great, great hire. &quot;

&quot;He's a very good recruiter. He's bright, energetic and a tireless worker. I really think everyone in Raleigh is going to like Dave.

&quot;Some guys have 'it' and Dave does. He's a relentless competitor.&quot;

It wouldn't matter if Debbie hired Moses..hard to find a coach who can lead his team to the Promiseland of NCAA football overnight... no matter what the price..wishing Doeren the best..see you all back in 5 years for the next hiring of &quot;Pack Coach&quot;....the saga of W.Raleigh..
