FWIW, the NCAA Board of Directors still has to approve the rule on April 28th.

Makes sense after so many 5-7 teams ended up bowling last season. There were three 5-7 teams that made bowl games last year and they were selected by APR. 2014 had 81 FBS teams with six wins and 76 bowl spots. 2015 had 77 FBS teams with six wins and 80 bowl spots. However, existing bowl games can m...

The last two days were the first late-inning blown leads this season.

They're getting closer to winning.

I'm sure recruits will be excited by the new lecture series hosted by volunteer Scott Satterfield. And the lecture will be in the middle of a big, flat field that happens to have cones set up around it.

It was an FYI. I found out that every time something bad happens to the Sun Belt, people blame Karl Benson.

The D1 Council voted on this. The Sun Belt rep is Texas State AD Larry Teis, not Karl Benson.

They do. But this was an easier way of saying "we're not playing App anymore".

Because Western's AD only will continue to schedule App if it was a home and home and I'd like to have our players with functioning knees, which couldn't happen after playing Elon.

Gillin has said his athletics master plan will be released in the next six months, so for him to say it's not happening and possibly change his tune later on would be eye-opening .'

I'm not that excited about Gardner-Webb but I'm fine with ETSU. Plus the games can be moved if something pops up.

Parthenon, a staple of the trailer bars next to campus, is closing for good on Saturday, May 14th. I knew it wasn't good when they had to close on select Saturday nights to be in compliance (80/20 laws) but to see it go before 9-lives Klondike is amazing.

I'm sure feelings will be mixed on this one.

This info is subject to change as school are finding ways to budget more money toward FCOA. Some schools might have plans that aren't public. I decided not to FOIA the entire Sun Belt, especially with Georgia's new laws that would have cost of hundreds of dollars. So this is based off articles, mess...

Everyone is different. I don't have all the info, but could get most of it in the next 24 hours.

$3,400 for football and men's and women's basketball.



85 football scholarships
13 men's basketball scholarships
15 women's basketball scholarships

$384,200 total.

I hate the idea that we should decrease an emphasis on athletics to help other areas. Why not use each to elevate the other? You can have your cake and eat it.

Billy's contract pays him $8,750 a month through June of 2018. That's 27 more months and $236,250 total in base pay.

With the recent BOT meeting, the previous BOT meeting has been released. http://chancellor.appstate.edu/bot/_documents/board-of-trustees-minutes-2016-01-29-conference-call.pdf Gillin didn't mess around with a one or two year contract like Olympic sports coaches normally get. Four year contract for O...

Saw a lot of good things this weekend. The team showed grit and resolve both yesterday and today. And they needed that series to get back in the Sun Belt Tournament race.

I was in school during the same time. Similar rep to her dad in terms of partying, but wasn't the nicest person.
