Boy, he sure didn't last long on the mountain. You would think that a kid that spent 3 years at Texas would have come to Boone in much better position to compete (for a backup position) than what evidently occurred. I mean, Sark is supposed to be a qb whisperer type of oc and coach. Of course, now w...

I read a 247 article that says the median basketball NIL spending for 2024-25 will be $1.5m per team. That is among power programs. The Sun Belt average is about 200k I heard. Even that number seems out of reach for us, not that I have any basis of knowledge on that issue. I would be surprised if w...

I will give you the part about the higher learning Law degree could be handled on the mountain. ( I would argue it could be done both on the mountain and off the mountain....let the professor travel) but, if you think North Carolina is going to build a BIG MAJOR hospital in Boone you are still smok...

I am a "Happy Appy" that loves Boone NC. I have a place in Linville and am in no way saying Boone doesn't deserve App baseball. However, I think Hickory is a huge opportunity to take on ECU and UNCC. WE NEED TO EMBRACE HICKORY AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. I think it would be strategic to get Hickory locals...

I guess, the games then aren't for the students to attend. I doubt we would be able to play rent free in Hickory. I'm three hours away, so it doesn't directly affect me but if I were a student I wouldn't be happy that I would have to drive 45 minutes just to see my team play. The games in Hickory a...

We got nothing in Florida, just a bright sunny day.

I think we should move them there Play games there most of the time. Hickory has the ability to get on board to support baseball with 4000 people. Boone does not. I guess, the games then aren't for the students to attend. I doubt we would be able to play rent free in Hickory. I'm three hours away, ...

Great 2 RBI double by ASL but have to call time before you walk off the bag. Absolute boneheaded.

The exact words I was going to type....absolute boneheaded.

McHugh leaving is not really a surprise. He was recruited by a previous OC/QB coach and never really seemed to crack into a reserve roll. Add to that we pull in another more experienced QB from Texas in the transfer portal and I am sure McHugh saw the writing on the wall that his time at App would n...

I would never ever send my kids to a college that underhandidly funneled my money to pay athletes salaries. If someone wants to throw their money away in NIL then more power to them, but if a college ever started funneling student fees to pay athlete salaries I hope they get sued into oblivion and ...

This is our second player to win Sun Belt Player of the Week honors, and in consecutive weeks. Not sure how long it has been since we have done that, if ever. Looking at the list, it is 1 from Troy, 2 from Texas State, 2 from Coastal, that is some good company to be keeping in the world of college b...

https://twitter.com/SunBelt/status/1775222947902259333?s=20 Kermit's success in the portal for bats has been outstanding the past few years. I wish we had an NIL deal for Xander Hamilton to return. Makes you think we would be close to a postseason team if we had him this year. I am still hoping we ...

Yes, let's get rid of wrestling...where we dominate...and have decent to good fan support... When we had Futbol, who showed up to watch? Consistently ranked and beating other top 25 programs. There’s only like 70 something D1 wrestling teams left for obvious reasons . Hell they don’t even have wres...

Thank you acknowledging this. This explains a lot. You're quite welcome. I didn't know my frustration with Gillin since the end of the 2019 football season was a secret. The thing about you that I really don't get is why my position is so unacceptable to you. I honestly don’t care what your positio...

Should be helpful in the interior line but I think we still need some help at Tackle. Need a big un or two for the outside.

The absolute toughest position to fill via the portal. So let’s cut (let go) of 2. Makes sense. Pound the portal! I really don't think the 2 DL that left were cut or let go by our staff as we are not deep at those positions. I do think they wanted more playing time (and perhaps a different scheme) ...

Why decommit, right now they are starters without even stepping foot on campus. Our 4 recruits plus 2 remaining players (1 a walk on) are the extent of the App State men's basketball team.

Harcum and Tate might be the best players returning in the Sun Belt If either of them go then I am going to assume Kerns is not coming back. There is no way every player leaves but our coaching staff is returning. I am keeping an eye on Harcum. Not sure I agree with this take. Could simply be that ...
