People need to calm down with firing the coaching staff after one season. It's reactionary and emotional. This season has been one to forget for sure, but how many times did we have to listen to tirades and defenses of this hiring (or about getting rid of Coach Clark) because of how bad the roster ...

I haven’t read all 30 pages of this thread and apologies if already been mentioned, but this ish really hit the fan when Cummings got hurt. Until then the O seemed to be serviceable, if not good despite VERY untimely turnovers. Only bringing up as to me I have always thought of TE as a critical weap...

Here’s the Devil’s advocate response to that. NIL and the Transfer Portal exist in Conway and Statesboro. Both of those teams treated the respective games as a rivalry, played chippy and one tried to plant a flag at midfield. The GaSo fans are not happy with Clay Helton, yet he can get his team off...

Sold.

Do not think so.

My Son has a baseball game and cannot make trip up to Coastal game on 10/18.

2 tix + Parking $250

All the “hate” of Mountain Music… If I recall correctly it debuted in KBS during Coach Moore’s last season at his request. Has been a mainstay ever since. For that reason alone it needs to stay. That said, I must say Yosef with the banjo running around the field lost pregame has become a bit corny....

Anyone receive the Monday edition this morning?

One aspect of the “pay the poor abused players” argument that kills me is that blanket assumption that schools have made “billions” off of these indentured servants. Zero of them has ever been forced to play a sport and I seriously doubt that outside of maybe 40 schools the rest have either operate...

Their Athletic budget is ~$2.5M more than ULM. I don’t get it. $560K in football ticket sales last fall.

When you talk about Irene I am curious how old is she? She might fund a sport now but when she dies will her children still do it? If you are depending on one person and the sport does not generate revenue through tickets, merchandise, TV revenue, etc then at some point that sport will be a drain u...

MTSU and WKu left for greener pastures before… I say good riddance. #sorrynotsorry

If bunting is not emphasized by the coaching staff then I can't get mad at the players for not executing. It's a fundamental/art that could and should be taught still. The coaching staff seems to be following the same trends as many others (analytics and power hitting - which seems to work for the ...

“ Did we quit when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?!?!?”

Hell No!

Don’t stop him, he’s on a roll.

It ain’t over now! ‘cause when the going gets tough…

If you moved sports to Hickory than the Boone campus would slowly die. As far as the streaming goes, I wish we would step that up as a program. It wouldn't be all that expensive all things considered to invest in some hi def 4k etc cameras in lots of places around the field and allowing the online ...

There were more parameters for joining the AAC than budget.

Correct. If I recall most of the conferences “above” us require R1 National Research status (I think AAC is one)… just this calendar year, we just obtained R2 status. A long way to go on that front.

To DOTE you said and I quote: "The budget should be Bigger now, because the school has grown the student body, alumni base, etc etc. That has to do with population not who the AD is. Population drives Donations/Budgets." We now have around 150,000+ alumni. The student body has grown which in turn h...

I love it. It could possibly stand up in court, if we had our players sign it when they sign their contract. All video of you in AppState uniform is owned by AppState. Of course we probably sign that right over to ESPN. We would probably sign it over to Nike, who would sign it over to ESPN. I belie...

Significant in that hopefully this means more per student funding provided from the State. The last I saw we were still funded nearly equal to wcu (bottom 20-25% of the UNC System) on a per student basis. All of the articles seen over the SNE years saying “most state funding received ever…” really i...
