Re: 2025 Men's Golf Mega thread

Golf Teams are cheap (relatively). I always wondered why we bothered with it. You can't play up there for a huge part of the year so no seriously competitive golfer would come to App for golf. And yes, I'm still pissed they took men's soccer away.

Re: NIL and future of NCAACF

Good discussion on this topic folks. If we keep spitballing it we might hit on the magic formula. Someone needs to find it pretty quick or the game will start loosing fan base. I understand spring game attendance is down dramatically all over the country. Is that a precursor? Anyone go to our spring...

Re: NIL and future of NCAACF

I still like the plan from the old days with a tweak. Once upon a time, scholarship players were given a small stipend to pay for laundry costs, a meal out, long distance phone calls home, etc. I think that stopped somewhere in the 70's. I'd like to see that tweaked to a small base salary that all p...

Re: Rays potentially moving to raleigh/carter Finley complex

It's unlikely they move to Raleigh but it's not a complete joke. I live in Rays country. They want to move to Tampa but St. Pete won't let them. The latest stadium deal fell through. Discussion of moves to Tampa have been shut down by the St Pete board. They can block the move to Tampa but thinking...

Re: The Tournament….

Sports evolve over time. That's why it's so hard to compare stars from different eras. But the game today is an abomination compared to the 70-90's. Push-off is allowed for offensive players, carrying/palming the ball is okay, no such thing as traveling as walking calls are non existent. Flopping is...

“ I just can’t have any sport to watch currently. Sad days. “ Hockey. It’s the best thing on tv. I grew up in NC and am old, hockey isn’t even a sport to me. I do like for the Canes to win.

Re: SunBelt and other interesting 25 portal happenings

How long will it be before our uniforms have sponsor ads on them? College football has been a business for a long time but this, this no longer resembles college football. College athletes give up a lot regardless of the sport. They should be compensated, but most already are. It came in the form of...

Re: Dowell Loggains

Well, I like what I heard. He talks about building relationships and those driving everything. Just substitute family for relationships and you kind of get the "App Family" history that's been built here.That sentiment gives rise to the TIGMA philosophy and why players play so hard for App State.

I don't think Neal Brown will be our next coach. I may be nuts but I believe our target is coaching this weekend. If so, we may know our new coach by tomorrow. It's going to cost us some $$$$s
If true, thinking it's Woods. Saw on X that we offered Brown?????

Very sad day and hate it had to happen. Shawn Clark is App Fam and has bled more than his fair share of black and gold. No doubt he gave his all for Appalachian State. But it was necessary, our record proves it. Hopeful for the future but in today's landscape, I'm not overly optimistic. Not sure Ste...
