First off..I want to say I'm happy for Sidney Lowe. State has been down so long, and I was raised with all three Triangle teams being in the mix..I'm longing to see them back in it.
WRAL has a nice article up on them, and their expectations this year. They quote Coach Red Jacket talking about freshmen CJ Leslie..
"I'm sure many of you ran across him at games or wherever. Thank you. Thank you," an appreciative Lowe told the crowd. "When he came back, he just talked about when he was out and about at games where Wolfpack fans kept saying, 'you got to come back. We want you there.'"
All I've ever heard on DBR (or any other fan forum) is that if you are fan, you are a booster. You are not allowed to say squat. In fact...I'm pretty sure State tried to squash a facebook group so they wouldn't get any infractions. And yet here Sidney is saying "thanks to anyone who talked to this kid". I honestly think it's great they did. If I saw a Duke recruit walking down the street, it would be very hard for me to bite my tongue and not say "see you next year!" with a hint of optimism. I'd never be busted for it anyways..it's barely enforceable.
Still, Lowe credits the fans (boosters) with Leslie now being at State. Is it wrong for him to do it?
