Well, West Virginia took it to State over the weekend in pretty convincing fashion. Chuck and I break down what went wrong and discuss what a loss like this means to a team trying to get its footing as conference play looms down the road. Also, some positivity! I promise!
This week's episode is...truncated, let's say. Yours truly had some user error kick in and the first part of the show didn't record. I was due for a snafu, I guess. Nevertheless, there's some great conversation that still made it to "tape," and by the end of the show, things went a little off the rails in our discussion about the ACC Network. Go figure!
State scored a nice win against East Carolina to start the 2019 season, so Chuck and I break down everything that went right and what the Pack can improve upon heading into the next game on the schedule.
Season Two of the Chuck Amato Show begins! Chuck joins James to discuss quarterback battles of years gone by, of the value of having a mobile QB in today's modern football, and what it's like facing a rival in the very first game of the season.
This is the final episode of the season! Special guest Tim Peeler joins us to briefly touch on the Gator Bowl, to recap the season as a whole, then to discuss facilities and the inclusion of Torry Holt into the NFF College Football Hall of Fame.
When NC State named the arena inside Reynolds Coliseum after Jimmy V, it felt natural to speak on it. Terry Gannon, shooting guard from the '83 team and renowned broadcaster of basketball, football and more, joined us over the phone to share what that dedication means to him. Ernie Myers--Gannon's teammate and a budding broadcaster himself--also joined us on mic, making for a fantastic interview.
There are NC State greats, and then there are the best of the best--Roman Gabriel is that guy. The first in a long line of QBU greats, Roman Gabriel was a dominant quarterback at the collegiate level and enjoyed a prolific NFL career with the Rams and the Eagles. Gabe joins us to talk about coming to State, starring for the Wolfpack and then the campaign to get him into the Pro Football Hall of Fame spearheaded by Vinny Sheehan (who joins us on this episode as well).
Chuck returns this week! We discuss the big win over ECU and Kelvin Harmon's decision to enter the NFL draft in the first segment, then relive some of the great memories of the 2003 Gator Bowl win over Notre Dame in the second segment!
This week is a "Chuckless" episode--Chuck is out of town, so I invited on Matt Lail, one-time former Assistant Editor of The Wolfpacker and former Sports Editor with Technician, to come on and discuss the UNC game, the ensuing coaching change for the Tar Heels, and the merits of this weekend's ECU game.
We talk about how State picked up a much-needed win against Louisville, we discuss the naming of the James T. Valvano Arena in Reynolds Coliseum, then we look ahead to the UNC game this weekend!
