    WF Tennis (WS Open Starts Saturday)

    UNC Facilities Dated The UNC outdoor courts are nice with the adequate seating for fans to see the courts easily, at least on part of their courts. But the UNC courts and seating are dated. The courts were built with only 12 feet dividing the courts. The standard is now 24 feet, which is...

    Clawson....

    Wake would have been better off yesterday for the offense to take a knee three times and punt. Three interceptions in the red zone may have lead to all the Cardinal's points!

    Neil Basford TE No Longer Listed on Roster

    While I usually think a player should play out the season, I think we need to give Neil some slack and let him have a normal college semester. Remember Neil is a 5th year senior, with major injuries in his past, and is playing behind a redshirt freshman and a true freshman. And is getting only...

    Men's tennis

    I drove from Raleigh to watch Rubin play, and was not disappointed. He can play. A point or two here and there and he would have won it. But that is tennis. He hit enough remarkable shots to compete with anyone. Really. Think David Ferrer. Same size and as David, but Rubin may have a better...

    2015 FB Recruiting: Mr. South Carolina Matt Colburn signs with #theawakening!

    Why not an earlier offer? From my experience in watching recruiting is that maybe someone mentioned to the Wake staff that the kid wanted to be recruited by Wake. Maybe his parents wanted him to go to Wake and they called the staff or had someone contact the staff about their desires? Before...

    Preseason Practice Reports

    On Cameron: Was told by a parent of a very good wide receiver that Cameron was a good runner but that he was an inaccurate passer. Maybe his passing accuracy has improved over the summer. On Sousa: Was told by that same parent that Sousa probably would probably transfer a lower division...

    Blogger So Dear has now become my first choice to read about Wake Forest sports. I have other choices, which I also read, but Blogger is my first choice. Nice guys. Thanks.

    BBall Recruiting Megathread - Crawford, Moore, & Collins ALL TO WAKE!

    If i remember correctly, Randolph Childress also was ranked in the 70s when he signed. But please note it is fair to say that Randolph clearly overachieved his ranking, and he was a five year player. So I hope CMM does the same and overachieves his ranking. Indeed, I think Codi's achievements...

    New coach brings hope to Wake Forest

    Thoughts on Grobe and his resignation: 1. Grobe's teams won when he had the best athletes such as but not limited to Abate, Curry, Smith, Vaughn and Skinner, all of whom were not highly recruited but were great college players; 2. Grobe's teams lost when the same level of recruits later on were...

    Official Spring Football 2014 Thread (Spring Game Saturday at 2:00)

    Sousa's technique was bad coming out of high school. I remember the smart people saying he had to get a lot of technique coaching to be a good QB. But from what I am hearing from all sources now is that it is impossible to change a throwing technique, no matter how hard one tries. Look at...

    WF Baseball

    I went to the baseball game after the Spring game. By the time I got there, bottom of the 1st, the score was already 4-0 and Wake had not batted! A parent of one of the players told me that all but one of Wake's pitchers were injured and that Wake's starting pitcher was the starting catcher...

    Clawson says all players have to attend both sessions of summer school

    Don't let anyone say that Wake does not have any money. A regular student pays more than $62,000 a year to go to just the regular Wake school sessions. Now on top of that, Wake pays for its football players - maybe even its basketball players - to go to BOTH sessions of summer school? How...

    Official Spring Football 2014 Thread (Spring Game Saturday at 2:00)

    I don't know what will be worse; (1) A true freshman starting at QB or (2) a true freshman Not starting at QB. If a true freshman QB does not start immediately over the QBs Wake now has, it will mean that the true freshmen coming in really weren't very good after all. The QBs we have now -...

    Official Spring Football 2014 Thread (Spring Game Saturday at 2:00)

    I remember the same type of comments about the new coaching staff when Jim Grobe came to town not so many years ago. Change it appears is good many times. Let's hope the new coaching staff gets the type of players who are physically able to play at a championship level and can win championships.

    Official Spring Football 2014 Thread (Spring Game Saturday at 2:00)

    Wake's starting QB in 2014 will be a true freshman. The nice runners at QB now on the roster really have not shown any throwing accuracy, and that is not going to get any better by September 2014.

    Inside Scoop on [Redacted] from Miami Game/Miami Post-Game

    You know why [Redacted] needs to resign or be fired? So Wake Fans, those intelligent and perceptive people, can stop making fools out of themselves like this original poster. Is this guy - or girl - such an idiot and so classless that he - or she - would go to games to yell f bombs in public -...

    Right Place, Wrong Time: The Travis McKie Story

    I find it interesting about some saying that with Bob Staak's teams there was hope. I don't remember that. Even so, I just remember the rumors about why he was fired, and it had very little to do with his basketball teams.
