Newmark on the NC State coaching search
Here's Craig's take. Frankly, I'd be stunned if they hired either guy...
Mine? The Wolfpack is fattening the wallets of guys that want no part of State's steady diet of games vs. Duke and UNC.
Update: On second thought, maybe there is something strategic behind releasing the names of Ford and Whittenburg at the same time. Pack Fans, like Craig, react to the Ford whispers with horror, and rush into Whittenburg's welcoming arms. Perhaps a very clever move by State's Athletic Director Lee Fowler! Still, it's a big ask, and surely a step down from what they had in Herb Sendek.
