Doing this again this year with the following sheet. So far the only public contact is @pcopeland5441 however, portal officially opens April 7th . docs.google.com/spreadsheetsā¦
I have created a sheets page with a running list uncw portal targets. Forward any tweets about contact to me and I'll add them to the list. I'm hoping that as a fan base this will allow us to have a better sense of who we might land in the portal. docs.google.com/spreadsheetsā¦

Want to know why nc state has won 6 in a row including the acc championship? THIS, theyāre as connected as Iāve ever seen a team right now. It is a team that is driven towards a common goal
This is awesome from DJ Burns. 2nd half of tourney game and heās hyping the guy he splits minutes with whoās having a career night. Great teammate.

Jarkel Joiner did a lot for nc state in just one year but this sequence alone puts him as my favorite player to only play 1 year in the red and white

Just about a year ago my family joined me at Cistern Yard to celebrate the start of something special here in Charleston. You have been incredibly supportive from day one. The Macks canāt wait to run it back in year two. Better than ever.

In games Bert Smith officiates nc stateās opponent have a 45 ft advantage. 167-122. In all other nc state games nc state has the advantage by 2, 336-334. Itās absolutely insane
Four of NC State's seven losses have come with Bert Smith officiating. 3-4 with Smith on the call this season. 17-3 otherwise.

You had a young qb in mj morris that showed tons of promise and you decided to bring in another qb instead of adding offensive linemen and receivers to build around morris. Thatās on the coaches

.@MichaelOblinger isnāt messing around. We are lucky to have him and @CoachSiddleUNCW leading the way.
UNCW and head coach Takayo Siddle have agreed to a 5-year contract extension pending board approval, sources tell Fox Sports. The extension includes significant investments including NIL, budget and staff salary increases. Seahawks are committing new $$$ to be a mid-major force.

Hereās my final view on the bubble. The committee usually punishes teams with the worst parts of their resume by putting them in Dayton, miss state and nc state donāt have the overwhelming blemishes that the others do.

For those that donāt know, CJ Luster has 3 years of eligibility lmao
Stony Brook transfer CJ Luster is transferring to UNC Wilimington, his agency @Weave tells me.
Luster, a 6-3 guard averaged 16 ppg and shot 42% from 3. Monster add for Takayo Siddle with Lusterās shooting prowess.

Keatts brought in 6 high major transfers this offseason. 5 of the 6 have starting experience. The only one without it is MJ Rice who probably has the highest upside of all the portal gets
Michael O'Connell's counting stats have been impacted by pace and a lack of volume. He only had 8 games where he took 10 or more shots in a game. In those 8 games: 15 ppg on 53% shooting... shot 39% from 3 on four attempts per game.

Appears @CoachSiddleUNCW has collected another caa transfer. Charleston had a pretty good day in the portal but their gets just donāt have the same Luster as ours
NEWS: Stony Brook transfer CJ Luster II has committed to UNC Wilmington, his agents at @WEAVE told ESPN. Impressive pickup for Takayo Siddle, getting the third-team All-CAA selection to stay in the league. Luster averaged 16.8 points and shot 42.1% from 3 this past season.

5 clear fouls. Now Iām not gonna act like I watched the game to see how much contact refs were letting them play with but based on the box score seems like they were calling things tight. So in that case all were fouls

Man heās a Seahawk through and through. Gonna feel weird not seeing Newby out there next year
Donovan Newby is one of the best players in recent @uncwmenshoops history. He is a Seahawk through and through.
Saturday was his senior night š«” Maybe, he didn't have it going early on... but, he says the kin of 2x C.A.A. P.O.T.Y. helped.
I think he'll miss it here...

I think the NIT should give home court advantage to teams that automatically qualify not major conference teams that were mediocre at best. Those lower conference teams had a great regular season with just a let down game in the conference tournament. That should be rewarded

Yesterday I posted about the potential for Trask Renovations to be on par with some of the better mid major arenas. Today I decided to play around with photoshop to see what Trask could look like. Below is what I got. Hopefully the next AD will get something similar done
