Let the record show I was in favor of this hire. I tried to pose some devil's advocate takes but ultimately this is the right time to make a move like this. Super risky, still, and high chance it doesn't work. But better than a run of the mill G5 coach.
It's official: Philip Rivers agreed to terms on a contract to become the next NC State football head coach. The contract is set to be voted on by the NC State Board of Trustees on Friday. #RiverstoRaleigh is happening. ✍️: 247sports.com/college/north-…

Kamora Pruitt unlocked?! NC State has looked off all night without Zoe Brooks, but getting Pruitt and Annsley Trivette going could prove pivotal for the Pack.

I mean the report from earlier this week basically meant this. No new news here unless that *paywall’d* article has contract information (which it doesn’t)
BREAKING: Philip Rivers has accepted the NC State head coaching job, returning to his alma mater, @Clowfb and @PeteNakos report🐺 An official announcement is expected in the near future. on3.com/news/philip-rivers-o…

Oof.
Two missed free throws from the Wolfpack. NC State is now 3 for 12 at the line tonight.

The initial N.C. State vs. Syracuse injury report has been released. Popo Aguirre, Ronnie Royal III, Will Wilson, Hunter Provience and Tristan Teasdell are all out. Starters Keenan Jackson, Harvey Dyson, Daniel Cruz and Rico Jackson are all questionable.

We were fortunate to see him build this St. Michael program over the past 6 years.

Just so we’re clear: Philip Rivers has already accepted the job, hence why N.C. State was finalizing a deal with him on Sunday. His contract is expected to be approved on Friday.

Throwback to the 2003 Tangerine Bowl — the final game of Philip Rivers’ college career at NC State. The linebackers coach for Kansas? Dave Doeren.

Anyone down for some 9 a.m. coffee with @joeovies?! We’ll take a walk down memory lane on Philip Rivers, discuss how #WPN affected the outcome of the coaching search and what it will take to make it all work. ☕️: youtube.com/live/51qDyXwqTuc…

Three of NC State's starters finished in double figures -- including double-doubles from Ven-Allen Lubin and Paul McNeil -- while Preston Edmead added six points and a game-high six assists at the point in a 94-60 win over Presbyterian. Box score: 247sports.com/college/north-…

NC State finished with 20 offensive rebounds tonight against Presbyterian. That’s the most since 2021 against Nebraska, a game that went to 4OT, per @Hammel_Craig. In regulation, it’s the most for the Wolfpack since 2014.
