Here's the way it all begins. July will be WILD from coast-to-coast! "For this year, athletes in all sports will be required to notify their schools about their intent to transfer by July 1. The council also voted to let the current dead period in recruiting in all sports expire June 1. A ban on in-...

Yeah, this will be an interesting hire. Western's new AD, Alex Gary, logged three years as a baseball player for the purple kitties before transferring as a senior and obtaining his first degree from VCU. I'm not certain what that says about Western's academics at that time, his expressed love for W...

This should be the first step in disbanding that program for good. Their administration isn’t committed to fielding a winner, they only want to showcase their band. Just cut it out altogether. They may be at the crossroads of some sobering decisions. They have always operated their football program...

UNC takes HubertD in the world's worst-kept secret!!!

The two WCU players could be Winthrop-bound. WCU coach Mark Prosser resigned at the 'whee to take the Winthrop position.

Get A BIG man!!! Getting a post guy who can walk right in, step on the court and be an impact guy from the start is a tough "get." Not impossible, but tough. The portal is still out there; and the JuCo national tourney is a mere two weeks away. Hope our staff is well-represented there. The nation's...

Call me a traditions guy. I was one of a group of five guys who led the fight to put the muzzle-loading *Kentucky or Tennessee* rifle back in Yosef's hands in the Bork/Laney-to-Peacock/Cobb transition. So think tradition every time Mountaineer Football puts points on the scoreboard! That blast you h...

Having Capel and Fox over the years hurt what we saw on the court, and really made all other things impossible to improve. Now that we have a much better fit at coach, it's time to take care of the things off of the court. There needs to be better promotion of the team to students, locals, as well ...

Life in crime-ridden Milwaukee on the wintery western shore of Lake Michigan at the mid-point between Chicago and Green Bay may not be so great. But hey...Shaka's back home with multi-generational wealth to face these facts... Shaka Smart 0 tournament wins at Texas in the last 6 years. Marquette 0 t...

Current number of players in Transfer Portal --- 935 Just a wild guess. Maybe 55% will find a new D-I roster. Maybe 25% will have to go down to D-II or JuCo. Maybe 5%, after considering their options, will decide to get off the portal bus and stay where they are (Methinks this option is available t...

Bootsy does raise a fair point. The NABC https://nabc.com/landing/index starts tomorrow and runs through Friday. It's a virtual convention this year, but the online connections that collegiate institutions will have available to contact prospective coaches and to conduct one-on-one conversations thr...

Maybe this will keep a couple of the guys on here from jumping off the roof :>) Although extending a contract has never prevented a coach from leaving I am most interested in the buyout language in this extension. The BOT met Thursday and Friday (livestream/telecom). The meeting agenda included act...

I had this problem several weeks ago using the Google search engine on Chrome. Wanting to stay with Chrome, I simply nuked the Google search engine and enabled DuckDuckGo in settings. No issues with "permanently banned" since. My issue is that the forum simply will not remember me. Each time I attem...

He was magic, before there was a Magic.

OK, fellow Cabin members...random question for ya: App has had some great logos over the years (i.e., the Block A) and some not so great ones (i.e., the Gorton's fisherman). Who has been involved in designing App's logos over the years? This group... https://uc.appstate.edu/about/branding-council W...

A brief addendum to the "DraftKings" summary... Looking at Norfolk's roster, they sport some really, really big guys topping out at 6-10, 250. As a team, they're quite a bit bigger than the Apps. They won't present with a four-guard attack--unless they're 6-6 guards. Four or five of their players ar...
