^A. Everett Case coached the first two games of the 1964–65 season and had a record of 1–1 (0–1 in the ACC) during those two games.
^B. The 1972–73 was forced to skip postseason play due to an NCAA recruiting infraction.[4] Assistant coach Eddie Biedenbach had played in a pick-up basketball game with David Thompson on a recruiting visit to Raleigh, North Carolina.[4] The Wolfpack finished the season undefeated at 27–0 but forfeited the opportunity to compete for the national championship.[4]
