In his first game with NC State, junior tight end Justin Joly appeared to do everything that was asked of him in the Pack’s 38-21 win over Western Carolina. He caught five passes for 75 yards — had a 50-yard touchdown wiped off the board by an illegal man downfield — and blocked well in the run game.  For Wolfpack coach Dave Doeren, it was a good debut for the UConn transfer.  “I thought Justin Joly really played well in that football game,” Doeren said Monday. “He did some really good things. I think him and Grayson have good chemistry right now.” But if you ask Joly, he has a different opinion of his first game in the NC State uniform.
