Re: Curt Cignetti teams....

He is a Pitt grad. His ego will definitely consider that job heavily if offered. A graduate of Lil brother school gets opportunity at Big Brother school... Right up his ego ... Why do you all think he has a huge ego? He works hard and knows his craft. It isn’t ego, it’s certainty. When you work tha...

Re: Curt Cignetti teams....

Why go to Penn State? They will never be satisfied with his results. Indiana is taking care of him with lots of money. Everything you do at IU makes him god. They will appreciate him there regardless for the rest of his career. No brainer if I were him. Because a God at Indiana is akin to being a p...

Re: Gold out vs coastal

Well, it's official. Gold out. Riley did it again. 1 kid somehow convincing a whole Athletic department. Don't know if it was just him as there were others. As passionate as he is, he acts on every impulsive idea, doesn't listen to others and is convinced everyone against him are just boomers who w...

Re: Gold out vs coastal

Seems like I may be the only guy on here who has no idea who this guy is. And I am not a boomer. I don’t know either but he must be a really bad man. He isn’t a bd person. He’s a good guy who is passionate about App. His tactics on using social media are borderline cyber bullying. I do not know the...

Re: Gold out vs coastal

To me, this thread is part of the reason we lack traditions. We don’t have the ability to get everyone on the same page for something a simple as “yellow out”. When your social media doesn’t have the market penetration and friends don’t let other friends know, it’s an issue. It really shouldn’t be ...

Re: Gold out vs coastal

How many people on here own a gold (yellow) jersey? My Dad won a Brandon Grier jersey from an auction a few (several) years ago. I believe that jersey is gold, or App’s version of Gold which is that brighter yellow color. Think it was from the lower level FCS opponent that year but I don’t remember...

Re: So Miss discussion

i have sort of a sinking feeling about this game....i think we are talented enough to win a lot of games this year...talented enough to win this one....but i swear the win over lindenwood felt like a loss...yes i know we had 4 TO's and tons of dropped passes...but we just didn't look good. Sure hop...

Southern Miss has a 30-year-old freshman punter from Australia, the oldest-known player in FBS.

Oldest known? Have we not explored the depth of college football ages yet?

Re: So Miss discussion

I feel like we have the speed to mitigate the effectiveness of the swing pass. More than mitigate, blow it up. Intercept, force fumbles and incompletions. This is why you play a 4-2-5, to face offenses like Southern Miss is running. D-Tackles are going to have to anchor down to let linebackers and ...

Re: So Miss discussion

The next two games will tell us a lot about what App's got this year. I figure - if we lose to So. Miss and Boise, we've got a full rebuild going on, and we have to trust the process and hope for bowl eligibility. - if we split So. Miss and Boise, win either one, we've got a good team that could ma...

Re: So Miss discussion

SMiss has had a very different schedule compared to App. MissSt is a quality team and JSU won the HBCU title last with size and speed. Arguably they've played better teams and come away looking OK. Its hard to say we've had anything but a cupcake schedule and performed as we should have. This will ...

Re: Looking Ahead- Lindenwood

Has anyone figured out why the hell we didn’t stop the play to look at the clear as day fumble we recovered? Was this the one where their guy took it back from us? Yes, and App clearly recovered that fumble. He had possession, on the ground. I also thought their Hail Mary touchdown hit the ground. ...

Re: Looking Ahead- Lindenwood

The drops and fumbles are very concerning. But I’m becoming concerned with our QBs timing, the throws continue to be half a second slow as he goes through his reads. Our secondary will get exploited by above average QBs. What reads? He locks on 1st option, half the time 3rd option is wide open on o...

Re: Looking Ahead- Lindenwood

Stroman’s issues are not the coaching staff’s fault. He’s been that way his whole career. It is an opportunity for the staff to improve him but I am doubtful because the issues go beyond the game. I am not saying this to be an apologist, but the coaches put the players into position to succeed for ...

Re: Looking Ahead- Lindenwood

I know it's early but I'm starting to worry about Coach. The players seem more interested in seeking the limelight then they are in playing good fundamental football. Way too many personal foul's, not protecting the ball, and trying to thread the football where it doesn't belong. They're playing fo...

Re: Looking Ahead- Lindenwood

Was at the game, if it could go wrong it did. We scored so easily we lost our edge and could never get momentum back due to turnovers and penalties. Should have beat thus team by 40, didn’t, receivers need to catch the ball There were 7 drops that I counted, and I think I include the bad ball by Sw...

That was bad. But we lose that game last year in my opinion.
That was App’s closest FCS win since 2013.

Re: Looking Ahead- Lindenwood

I bet on this game. Sorry guys. I shouldn’t have. CFP shot is gone even if you go 13-0 now. Not that it’s likely, but that’s a terrible take. If we go 13-0, we will have wins over Boise, Oregon St. and JMU. That’ll be good enough. Oregon State? Boise who lost by 24 to USF? JMU who just lost Louisvi...
