We've used "STATE" on the basketball jerseys since Everett Case. The question would be, when did we start putting "NC STATE" on the front? Our whole branding, merchandising and licensing needs a serious overhaul to bring us into the current century.
"We were standing outside a restaurant, waiting for our table, when my daughter Macie spotted a soldier walking by.
In her quiet, sincere little voice, she said, “Thank you for your service.”
He didn’t hear her.
She looked up at me, disappointed—but too shy to say it again.
When he came back out, I caught his attention and told him what she’d said. He smiled, thanked us, and walked to his car.
But then… he turned around.
He walked back, knelt beside Macie, and said,
“Can you hold on to something for me?”
Then, gently, he removed the American flag patch from his uniform and placed it in her small hands.
She held it like it was treasure.
A simple moment. A powerful lesson.
That day, my daughter didn’t just meet a soldier—
She learned what honor looks like.
Not from a speech.
But from a man who listened, and gave her something she’ll never forget."
