RALEIGH — Over the last 13 seasons, Dave Doeren has built NC State football into one of the most consistent and competitive football programs in the ACC. As with any program over the last decade-plus, there have been ups and downs, but Doeren has been the constant, instilling his culture built on family and toughness along the way. However, there's one thing missing. The Wolfpack has yet to win more than nine games under Doeren's watchful eye as head coach, a fact that pains many fans of the program who want more from their beloved team. There have been groups with higher expectations than the one the veteran coach will lead in 2026, but the ingredients to potentially break the run of disappointment are there. How can Doeren get the Pack over that benchmark?
