Sadly, App can barely get a doctoral program started (Board politics or something?) where UNCC has about 30 of them, 27ish of which are PhD programs (vast majority in science and engineering). This is an area I wish App would push more in, at least with environmental/sustainable technology, nursing,...

Referring to Everts stepping down? Just got email newsletter where she informed UNC System President she is stepping down! She was forced to do this but they let her save face here. I had heard this would happen in May or June so this is an early gift! Now we need to get a pro athletics chancellor....

it’s a girl.

Already? Cool, you can probably still make tip off! Ha Ha. Congrats man.

New kids first basketball game!

Perfect timing, I can listen in from LA during lunch (and the rest of the work day…but let’s just pretend I’m in a meeting)!

Does saying you can't be on the bubble for the NCAA and the NIT count as speculation?

Every thing is speculation, hope, wishful thinking.. whatever term one prefers..
at this point ...that is my point

That’s half the fun of these boards!

Unfortunately, it appears that may well be the case… that we will not host. I read one article today, that had us in the last four for the NIT, which would not be hosting. Much of the new changes that the NCAA has made, we’ll just have to see how it plays out. It certainly looks like this years NIT...

Joey Aguilar was listed with the honorable mentions in this article: https://247sports.com/LongFormArticle/ranking-college-footballs-top-25-quarterbacks-in-2024-carson-beck-shedeur-sanders-among-best-228404772/ He’s alongside QBs from USC, Oklahoma, and LSU. Nice recognition and glad he plays for th...

Gonna be a close one…finish it off App!

now the fouling begins

That’s one of my annoyances with basketball.

If App is gonna win the tourney, there can’t be a repeat of today.

“Who has the most regular season wins? Oh them? Let’s pick them”

If he’s heading on, then I wish him the best. He did his best here, so I’m not going to be upset about it.

2 really good recent podcasts on this on Yahoo sports cover this in depth. This isn't going to ruin college sports...but whatever impact it does have is secondary to the legality issues...what the NCAA was doing simply isn't legal. Courts have ruled against the NCAA model/restrictions/rules in ever...

High point was wildly in debt last I had heard. Their campus is pretty ridiculous. Iron fencing all the way around with a number of amenities. Lots of jersey license plates. Also, its accreditation status is in a warning status as of last summer. Lot of non-compliance issues related to student supp...

Sigh. I don’t doubt he’s a great dude but All I see is another re-tread app coach that couldn’t get a job somewhere else He’s been doing this same role at Louisville and Cincinnati since he left. He’s coming home. GO APPS!! Just curious, What does a Senior Assistant to the Head Coach do? Responsibi...

At least they’re realistic with attendance expectations

I'm more curious in what college credits and degrees he has at this point. The medical redshirt are whatever at this point. What do you do for 9 years? That's a PhD or a bachelor and 2 or so masters. The Athletic did a report on him. Turns out he has a bachelors in journalism and a masters in adver...

I don't mind that he wants to play. I do think it's ridiculous that the NCAA allowed it. Nothing matters anymore. My understanding is he got a three-year medical waiver because his injury was so significant that he was out that long. He will have only played five seasons. I think the NCAA got this ...

It's been said that something like 40% of the players who go into the portal don't land anywhere else. You have to think that the reasons go beyond football abilities. How many of these guys didn't put forth the efforts in the classroom and are looking for an easier path? The skeptic in me finds it...
