The Captain liked a Tweet I made for the R&R Twitter account during the game, so if it’s McKay he’s doing it from the sideline…

Does anyone know who actually runs that twitter account? I'm guessing an NC state fan since the account was created back then. Matt has said its not him.
You think an NC State fan would care enough to continue it when he’s no longer on the team?

It’s either McKay or a close friend, and if it’s McKay, it makes it much more lame.
I think it’s awesome and if it was actually McKay I’d love it more. So creative and love watching these guys have fun. Pretty sweet if it’s a friend too. Look forward to them every week!
100% agree.

Yes I do because it's a fun account and a fun idea. I remember seeing a similar thing for Andrew Luck back in the day, so it's not the first time it's been done.

Yes, Andrew Luck was the first one and then there were thousands of copies of it. I can see where people who haven’t seen it before find it amusing, I’ve just seen far too many of them. It’s all old hat to me.

That’s a fair take. I’ve seen several of them too. But none with our starting QB and teams the bobcats are playing.

There’s a ton of things that I see where teams copy other teams in regards to their university. Some great traditions out there. Hell, I like it when we play Sweet Caroline to get the students fired up, (touchy subject I learned) even though I think it was Boston College that started it.

So while I don’t have an issue with your opinion obviously, I like lots of things that pertain to MSU even if I have seen it done before. That’s probably the only difference in our opinions.

I’m bad with sharing stuff but there’s a new McKay post about the infamous clipboard throwing tonight. It was awesome. I’m sure someone smarter than myself will post by morning!

I like it. It is unique. I also loved it when the running back a couple years ago had that song he wrote. (Groves)? I would like to hear what Taylor sings also.
