If he uses the red shirt this year his life goals would still be achievable if he chose to leave football after next year. The redshirt will not hold him back, it will just give him options.

I don't remember if ECU was a friend or a foe when we were trying to make it to FBS football. If they were (Friend), I hope we help them land in the SBC if they need it. If they were not (foe), I hope we let them fall behind. If they stay in a watered down AAC we will pass them.

https://twitter.com/MHver3/status/1691411491210039298?s=20 wonder if ECU is one of them? If so, their fanbase won't be happy flying to the left coast for meaningless games. If not, Sun Belt is their best option. Highly doubt Easy U in the four. If I had to guess...smu, south Florida, Memphis and Tu...

Back to pack 12 meltdown. We are truly ruining college athletics. Powers that be are catering to the Walmart fans instead of the students/alumni. Students and Alumni want to play close by teams for two reasons. Water cooler talk Monday morning and to be able to drive to away games. I really hope our...

Picture of Holmes Deck construction (as of 11 July 2023): https://www.appstate.edu/_images/vision/holmes-drone-1-71123-1800x1200.jpg Anyone know how many parking spots will be in this deck? Also, will a (Basketball) season ticket get you a parking spot in this deck during basketball season or is it...

This is my good news situation/outcome. The BIG and SEC resume the Rose bowl championship. And everyone else is locked out. The leftover teams /conferences make their own rules and it is worthy of interest and we get a 16 team playoff with divisional Champs making the playoffs.

Which is more important for parking??? Mountaineers Athletic Fund or Yosef Priority points??

SEC and BIG should lay out how the playoffs are going to look and everyone else can sign on or be fcs. They shouldn't even put it to a vote. If I were them it would be 16 at large with all schools playing at their controlled bowls in the first round. Each team making the first round of bowls would s...

I wish we would go to a 9 team SBC Schedule now. I would like the 9 game schedule to always be your 9 closest sbc teams. It may be tough to decide who should be in the championship but it could be done. Maybe only your East games count towards the East Championship representation. I would like to bu...

I hope this is how it ends for playoffs. 1st round byes for top 8 and the G4 play a playoff for 1 spot in the CFP. It is going to get old being the g5 rep and getting Alabama/Georgia every year. The AAC and the Sunbelt or the MWC need to make a scheduling agreement to start a week early and have a c...

Here's a scathing take..

Well Written...So sad....So true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The new AAC teams (ie Charlotte) are not getting the same payout as the legacy AAC teams (ie ECU).

Their number is much smaller.

The question is what does App give up in potential ticket revenue for non-premium games if there is a permanent expansion to 40,000? If you only fill that up two times a year, you're likely driving down prices by increasing supply not only for that game, but for future games. You may also drive dow...

I would pay up for a seatback and Arms that clearly define where my seat is. But, I would like to stay with the common folks. I like being with the rowdy loud crowd vs the box seats with business and handshaking being done. I go to a sporting event for the sport...not the social scene. Although, our...

Does anyone know what time the ECU tickets sold out? As much as I hated 130/4 tickets I am proud of App for taking the money instead of allowing scalpers to get the extra money. I would never have believed I would pay 130 bucks for a college football game.

Probably my favorite of all of App programs to brag about. Great job!!!

Are ECU tickets still available??

Is there a height limit on Buildings in Boone. Why are we not building parking decks higher? Is it an engineering problem that limits height or a zoning problem that limits height? All of our parking decks are the same height but could go higher and not mess with the already existing skyline. The bu...

How about the top of the concessions becomes a floor and another level is built with ramps to bathrooms and concessions on the top level. Should be pretty easy to do and relatively cheap. I would buy more if it was easier to get.
