“I want to say how proud I am of our ballclub.”

“I got to be around [Argos] and he’s not only a class act but one of the best pitchers in the country.”

“We had that tough third inning and couldn’t quite overcome that.”

“I’m very proud of our guys. We had an unbelievable season and did some things that haven’t been done at NC State in a while.”

“It’s a tough one.”

“Baseball beats anybody but to get it more accurately we have to seed everybody.”

“He did an unbelievable job today... the inning we felt like we had to go to a lefty against Burleson.  Justice was the guy we had matched up for Burleson and he came in and did his job, but it kind of went haywire for a little bit.”

“For baseball you use the summer to get better.”

“He’ll make more money than me and you put together by tomorrow.  For a program that’s had so many good shortstops... we’ve had so many great shortstops and he’s in line with them. He’s a great, great player.”

The tale of two halves for sure. We had a golden opportunity after the amazing start, but for various reasons could not keep it going. Felt like this year was a great opportunity with the ACC not being as tough from top to bottom.

This team overachieved out the gate and set up unrealistic expectations for some fans. Throw in the slew of injuries that seemed to creep up at the worst time and this is the end result. I honestly expected the same result as what happened this weekend. I just didn't think it would look as bad as it did. With that being said, I'm fairly certain there's something going on health wise with some of the star players which contributed to the end result. Looking forward to next year.

One of the few things I agree with him on. It was unbelievable alright.
