NC State cracks KenPom top 50 after win over Wake Forest
Under a lot of circumstances, it’s not exactly noteworthy to point out that a team has reached NC State’s current modest point in the Pomeroy Ratings, but certainly under the circumstances of this season, it’s impressive. The Ratings were low on NC State to begin the season, pegging the Wolfpack at 109 after the team finished Mark Gottfried’s final season in that spot.
An improvement of 60 places over the span of a few months, with a new head coach and a rotation assembled with duct tape and graduate transfers, is pretty good. Kevin Keatts has gotten the most out of this group, especially of late.
