Print-- CJ Leslie made it official at Sammy's yesterday evening:
Dressed in red, screaming "C.J., C.J., C.J.," Pack fans filled Sammy's Tap and Grill on Avent Ferry Road. Those who came late stood six rows deep in the parking lot.

I seriously doubt
that there is anyway to just remodel Reynolds to have it come up to the capacity and technology standards that would be required, it’s all just wishful thinking.
I actually entertained thoughts yesterday that CJ was going to pull a UK hat out and Calipari would appear out of a puff of smoke. I don’t know how they would have managed to make it out of Sammy’s in 1 piece though.
My freshman year was the last year
in Reynold’s. I think that arena has been highly overromanticized. The thing I remember most about it was Gary Williams and Terrell Stokes giving the student section the finger with Gary yelling, “That’s four in a fuckin’ row!” (referring to it being the 4th straight time they had beat us). good times.
Agreed, it’s been overromanticized. I regret never getting to sit in the student section for a big game there, but that’s about it. (Mostly I just wish we could’ve been that close to the court at the RBC.) A few games with those cramped hallways, neck cramps from turning your head… there’d be a stampede back to the RBC Center.
USA!USA!
I think the loudest Reynolds got while I was there was the USA chant when we were playing Wake when they had Vidurreta and Songalia. The best part of Reynolds was feeling right on top of the court (if you weren’t stuck in the endzones). The RBC has much better site lines and will be raucous if we start winning.
Reynolds?
Didn’t they just put A/C in that building? Jeez I understand the history and maybe being a little bit like Cameron Indoor but once or twice a year is good to play in there. The RBC center is way better. Maybe we should just play UNC there every year. But its good to have CJ in the fold. I’ve been on cloud 9 all week, UNC fans hating, ‘CJ Leslie is a dime a dozen to us, a one in a million for you’. You know they scared when they start talking. Whether they’ll admit it or not, State will have a good team this year and they won’t bee too much different from last year, that offense needs an elite point guard to run it, and they just don’t have that right now. Plus all their big men are soft. Can’t wait to see CJ dunk on Zeller, that is if the guy can stay healthy.
Steelers football is 60 mins.
As per my UNC fan
they wasn’t going to do anything this year, UnC will still win the ACC, Zeller will be healthy this year and play 40 mins a game. It won’t matter. LOL
That UNC arrogance is strong isn’t it? I hope they go 16-16 again this year and watch us win the ACC.
