Re: FCS national championship

FCS playoff TV ratings minus the champ game as I doubt its published yet. One thing to keep in mind with sports numbers. How many of these are bars that try to put every game up somewhere thats on TV. Gotta love that 400k for a semi final game. https://herosports.com/fcs-football-tv-viewership-rati...

Re: Portal time 25-26

Former App State DL Rondo Porter has committed to Rutgers Ooof :lol: That NIL better be real nice for me to go to freaking Rutgers and live in New Jersey :lol: I’m assuming NIL funds are taxed. No way am I going somewhere like NJ, NY, CA, etc where they are going to tax half of my pay. Depends on w...

Re: Portal time 25-26

There is still some time left for YSU qb…. the kid is a beast, 3200 passing with 26 tds and 3 ints. ….. also 1400 yds rushing. He’s not the size DLO prefers 6’0 215…… but the kid is crazy productive. I’d go all in. He’s not in the portal. You can’t go all in on someone not wanting to leave their cu...

Re: Portal time 25-26

Wilson is a scholarship player. D2 comment is realistic if he wants to see the field. I’m not in the business of babying people, including you. Hahah. Yeah you are allll man.

Re: Portal time 25-26

Another walkon. Maybe he just wants playing time in D2? “Legacy” doesn’t get you in the lineup anymore. Wilson seemed to not be terrible and he didn’t sniff the field all season. I have No idea if coakley is good enough to get playing time but trash talking the kid of the best player to ever play f...

Re: We need a good offensive coordinator

I’m not sure I buy the idea that DL is a bad play caller. My issue is with our QB play. In my 25+ years watching App St football, that was the worst QB room we’ve had, relative to our competition. It was a huge red flag we didn’t have a starter named/known until the first snap of the season. For th...

Re: Portal time 25-26

But, are these disgruntled parents as little Johnny did not get playing time, certain number of catches, etc. I only know what I viewed on TV. 60+ players showed up and appeared to give their all for 60 minutes. And how many didn't show up? Everyone for Ga Southern was there, we were down almost 30...

Re: Birmingham Bowl

I’ll ask the same question, I asked weeks ago and never saw a decent response. Outside of DJ’s defense, where did we improve this year in season? What mistakes did we stop making? You can say we didn’t have the horses, but part of the job is development and improvement. This group was together cont...

Re: Birmingham Bowl

Someone who played the position tells me that Wilson showed more than enough yesterday to prove that giving up on him was a huge mistake by the staff. Pretty sure that everyone who watched that game had the exact same conclusion. Sure, he was raw and missed bad on some passes, but he showed me more...

Re: Birmingham Bowl

Shawn Clark (God rest his soul) would have produced a better result than DL. THIS year. Shawn Clark wouldn’t have had to rebuild, and App would’ve won maybe 2-3 more games. App admin rolled the dice that a new coach, after an adjustment period, could make App better. Think of it this way, if you we...

Re: Birmingham Bowl

I really wish I shared some of your optimism about the ability of our coaching staff. I did like the recruiting class and that impressed me, but I saw nothing during the games to give me confidence in the actual coaching abilities.

6 is a FBS level runner.. not an FBS level passer.. just my opinion
Certainly, but Gillon is neither and our staff seems to really believe in him. Makes me question their talent evaluation.

Will be nearly impossible to pull out a W now but if the core group today comes back next season we may show some improvement along with some transfer in and a full squad.

He certainly never produced a worst result, 5-6 was his worst year and now we will be 5-8 under DLo.
