IPS in Five is a daily 5-10 minute audio feature where we will talk all things NC State, in a timely manner.   We’re going to give initial feedback on games or upcoming matchups.  We’re going to talk recruiting with Steve Williams.  We’re going to have guests.  

Expect an in-depth discussion in a short amount of time, which is what I believe a lot of our subscribers are going to enjoy.

I, for one, trust the staff's decision making, considering they have a team that is nowhere near the most talented team we've had recently poised to win a regular season title. I'm not sure why you guys feel the need to pick a player in every sport to **** on for being in the rotation just because it doesn't match up with some sports nerd metric that you think the staff should value more than they do. It's tiresome. Metrics and analytics are great tools, but good coaches are never going to make decisions solely based on that stuff. If they feel there's a need for a guy to be in there, that's what they're going to go with.
Just a guy on the sunshine squad.

What analytic are you talking about with Andrews?

In his last 4 starts he's given up 21 earned runs in 16 innings. That's not analytics.
