Thank you coach Amato for all you have given to N.C. State’s football program. You raised a ton of money for our facilities which are among the best in the country. You got this fanbase believing and expecting only the best. You have raised the bar for the next coach.

Thank you coach Amato, thank you for everything. I wish you only the best in whatever your future holds.
