Could Lorenzo Brown Enroll Mid-Season?

James Henderson of Pack Pride suggests it might be a possibility on the latest edition of PackPride Radio:

The only thing we're trying to clear up with Lorenzo now is, Hargrave (Military Academy where Lorenzo will likely prep)'s one of the few prep schools where ... if you get through the (NCAA) clearing house in the fall, you can enroll at a college mid-year. I don't know if he's capable of doing that yet, with it being basketball, but maybe the door's not shut for him to get his scores and possibly enroll for second semester with N.C. State.

I wouldn't get your hopes up too high, though. James concludes by stating that he feels the plan at the moment is still to have him prep a full year and enter in the fall of 2010.

Hope springs eternal in West Raleigh.

State Officials Appealing Brown's Denied Admission, Per WRAL

WRAL.com link

A source with knowledge of the situation told WRAL Monday afternoon that an appeal is in place with the NCAA clearinghouse.

With the appeals process still ongoing, N.C. State officials did not want to comment on the situation at this time.

Don't blame them for trying, but at this stage in the summer (mid July), and given that State isn't a cash cow for NCAA, I seriously doubt we get granted leniency in the matter.

Nevertheless, keep your fingers crossed.

Good one, buddy. Congrats. Hope someone spams your IP address.

P.S. Your atrocious grammar is a testament to the high quality of student they graduate from "UR" school.

Oh, And Things Were Going So Well 30 Minutes Ago...

Not that anyone needed any evidence as such, but we State fans can sometimes turn on own from time to time.

Let me allow you a moment to let that sink in, and then ask you to forgive me as I do the same.

Will White...you were flying high here on the blog just half an hour ago. Then I came upon this photo that turned up at the ESPN story:


Will. Will, Will, Will.

I'm not sure if you're a closet Texas Longhorns fan. Perhaps you're the long, lost nephew of Mary Anne Fox. But we do NOT bust out with the Wolf sign in celebration whilst on the podium after winning a national title if we don't know how to do them:


Brother, talk to somebody. Figure it out. Get it right. But put 'em in the holsters until you do, because otherwise you're going to subject yourself to ridicule from your Wolfpack brethren. Deserved ridicule, because we're State fans and we'll turn on you in a heartbeat.

Hells Yeah! Yet Another N.C. State Bass Fishing Title!

WE MUST PROTECT THIS LAKE! State wins the 2009 Under Armour College Bass National Championship.

Seriously...it's about time we start producing some banners, don't you think? 'Cause State's apparently pretty good at this bass fishing thing.

Let the morons in Chapel Hill howl. Let them call us rednecks or whatnot. But two bass fishing titles in just a few years is pretty dang impressive.
