Re: Hank Steinbrecher

He took Vaughn Christian’s program to the next level. We were a national powerhouse. Perhaps one of the very very best in Boone for any sport. Completely agree! And in a flashback triggered somewhat by Hank's obit and the by image below, I'll continue to remember Hank as he was during his tenure at...

Saw that he passed away. Was quite the character (and nice guy) at App. Got us in Sports Illustrated. "Come to America and
play, eat big Lion"
Hank was everything you listed and then some...always in a good way! :D

I still remember the silence in KBS when Matt was hurt against UTC. RIP Matt
I remember, as well, sobering silence. It was clear that everyone in the stadium knew it was bad.

Letting a lower seed hang close even on their tired wheels. Not good!

Re: Tre McKinnon

Did Tre McKinnon sign in the early period? Or is he committed? Or just on a list of who we are recruiting? He and the Clemson commit (both at Lake Norman) lit it up tonight. Early signee!!! https://appstatesports.com/news/2024/11/13/mens-basketball-app-state-inks-three-to-2025-26-roster-on-signing-...

Re: Ifs and Buts

Stonewall's right, any buyout contract would absolutely require an executive session discussion and then an action item approval by the BOT in an open meeting.

Re: Miami of the MAC

Guards outside of Tate have to play better. Too many forced 3's and got lost on defense too often. Keep in mind several are freshmen though. I was really disappointed in Threadgill's play. That game was his 74th starting assignment as a D-I wing/shooting guard but his success was inauspicious, at b...

Muttilieb looks to be the fifth.
Makes sense...somewhat reminds me of Spillers...not a JuCo AA...but close to it in awards/honors...not 6-7 but close at 6-6...shot 19 PPG at Kilgore...a scoring machine and a good student to boot! +++

Taking nothing away from Darryl; he is most deserving of this honor. There are others less well known save only to asu66, Steelman, and a few others from many moons ago. Players such as Tony Gray, Stan Davis. Tony Searcy is well known and should be considered. After all, he led the nation in reboun...

Re: NC State McCall

McCall would've been screened out before rookie camp. NFL teams can't afford the high risks involved in signing and suiting up guys with a troubling head/neck medical history. Nor could he afford to take the risks of partial or total paralysis or sudden death. He didn't deserve to be forced out of t...

I can tell you a lot about this joke of an athletic director. So can I! Volumes! Stonewall was on point about RL and THE PETER PRINCIPLE ...plus he had a hyper vindictive streak in those days.

I am not sure why the Hutchens kid has not been the OH from day 1. She can jump and she has power, she is better than the other freshman that had been starting before she got hurt. I am impressed with her and concerned about the coaching staff not having her on the floor earlier. Maybe you should b...
