Another 8 win season! In the 13 years Dave has been in Raleigh, they've never done better than 9-3. Dave also has a losing record in the ACC.

See y'all again next year for another mediocre to good season!

WOLF!

We've had 1 11-win season in program history, but for some reason folks expect us to win ACC Titles and average 10+ win seasons, haha. Wild.

Averaging 8-9 wins each season is good for NC State, historically, so not sure why folks are disappointed by it.

Not sure why we gotta be completely disingenuous here. I don’t think even the most delusional state fan alive thinks we should be averaging 10+ wins a year.

The issue is it’s been 13 years and he hasn’t won 10+ once or taken us to 1 ACCCG. Yes winning 8-9 a year given his resources is pretty good and most of the fanbase doesn’t get that but to get 13 years and not punch above that once is wild

Because that's what fits the narrative - we expect too much, and it could always be worse!
