NC State vs. Virginia Tech Historical
Pacific Elm Properties and Gale Force Sports and Entertainment unveiled today a “first look” of the forthcoming Raleigh Sports & Sports Entertainment District that will neighbor Carter-Finley Stadium and the building formerly known as PNC Arena.
The redevelopment of the 80-acre site, located just off I-40 and adjacent to Carter-Finley Stadium, will provide new opportunities for shopping, dining and entertainment throughout the year, and will feature a unique outdoor realm for sports tailgating and programming. Tenants and outdoor spaces will be curated to serve fans of the Hurricanes and NC State alike, offering new ways to gather before sporting events while honoring the classic tailgating experiences that people have grown to love.
Phase one of the development will include more than 200,000 square feet of entertainment and lifestyle retail, 150,000 square feet of office space, a 150-key hotel and more than 500 apartments. Additional phases will expand this variety of uses over the expected 15-year development timeline.
Ever since 2012, PNC Arena has been the home of NC State Men’s Basketball and the Carolina Hurricanes. Today, the sign “PNC Arena” came off of the building.

PNC Bank’s naming rights contract ran out on August 31st.
The Hurricanes announced today that they had reached an agreement for PNC Bank to be the sponsor of the arena’s club and club-level seating.
Could the home of NC State Men’s Basketball be called the Lenovo Center Next?
In a leak from the video game NHL 25, the following image has Lenovo Center written on the ice of the Hurricane’s home arena.
Obviously it hasn’t been confirmed that Lenovo will be the next official sponsor of the arena, but the leaked image from the game does seem oddly coincidental.
1999-2002 = Entertainment & Sports Arena
2002-2012 = RBC Center
2012-2024 = PNC Arena
2024-TBD = Lenovo Center?
NC State’s Women’s Basketball team will be playing in the 2024 Jimmy V Classic on December 15th at Louisville at 1pm on ABC.

This marks the 5th time that the NC State Women’s Basketball team has played in the Jimmy V Classic: UConn (2002), Texas (2003), Tennessee (2004), South Carolina (2020).
The Wolfpack are 8-8 all-time against Louisville, but are currently on a 5-game winnings streak against the Cardinals.
ESPN ranks NC State 8th in their Way-Too-Early 2024-25 Preseason Top-25, and they rank Louisville 12th. The Wolfpack finished 4th in the AP Poll last season, and the Cardinals finished 30th.

Just curious. When are we going to see our new player Miranda play?
Whose minutes do you give him? I thought he might get some of Ebe’s minutes but Ebe played pretty well against Duke. You want to encourage that, we need Ebe for ~20 minutes a game at for a few weeks. Dusan is supposed to be back by the end of the month I think he had a very narrow opportunity to play this season, unless he turned out to be ‘can’t keep him out of the lineup’ good, which he apparently is not. And he missed his chance. Keatts is fighting for his job, I doubt he’ll risk using an… Read more »
All reasonable conclusions. He seemed like a player that was coming in to play a year and then go to the NBA. I suppose if Keats like what he sees in practice, maybe he’d rotate him in for a few minutes here and a few minutes there. If he utilizes those minutes with real good efficiency and plays outstanding, then you put some fire in Ebe. I liked what I saw from Ebe the last game, but I thought he’d be further along at this point this season. He seems like he’s playing reserved and needs to be more aggressive… Read more »
5.5 seems reasonable. Now we need to prove we can win on the road. After the Duke game, who knows what to expect?
Agree. VT is tough and I believe students are back this weekend so they may have a good crowd.
Ebe and Gantt starters again? I like the energy they brought and also buying some time for DJ to delay foul trouble.
We really need this win and fear we won’t get it. I hope the Duke game wasn’t an aberration. Hope we play with the same intensity, focus and smart basketball that we did in our last win. I know this is just one game, but I do feel this game will tell a lot about the trajectory of our season. While the last game was a statement game, I somehow feel this game is even more so important. Don’t know why I feel that way, just do.
We do need a couple of good road wins and this would be one, so I agree its very important. We bought ourselves a little more wiggle room with the Duke win, but if we don’t take this one on the road we’ll have one less opportunity to do so.
