Birmingham Bowl

[T-Dog]

Playing this game is the right thing to do and Dowell should be commended for it in the middle of his purge.

[RaleighApp27609]

We still don't have an idea for the lineup for Dec.29?

[biggie]

Probably truly won't until the game starts (or who those in person sees warming up before the game).

[bcoach]

We never hear much from the folks who thought this was a good idea anymore do we.

You complain more than a moody woman. If Loggains had declined the invite, you would have been one of the first to ridicule him.

Take pride in your university and student athletes stepping up in support of the college football that you so cherish. These athletes could have easily said no and Loggains would have declined it. They didn’t. They wanted the opportunity. That alone should make you want to support them in the game.

Well actually I was refering to portal and nil not the bowl. I do hope your superior attitude feels better though.

This game or the new structure?

The new structure. Bowl is good practice.

[bcoach]

For those of you who didn't get it I was being facetious. I was making a ststement about the pain I would endure losing to the stink 2 times in one year. I am not going to hate a coach for losing one game even if it is the stink. I think(:

You are really leaning into this role i see. The rah rah rah over this current situation is a bit much. We were absolutely terrible this year, had equally poor coaching, finished with a losing record, a ton of guys are jumping ship and we were the 8th team asked to cobble a group together to play in this bowl game. Pointing all these things out doesn’t make you a “hater” or a bad fan. I’d be willing to bet the vast majority of fans want this train wreck of a season to be put to bed. But instead we get to watch one more game. And who are you kidding. Do you think some magical light is gonna come on with our rental players that they suddenly really care about beating ga southern? And even if they did, do you think this staff can make that happen?

If you are excited about this, that’s awesome. If you think App State football is in a great place that’s also great. But you maligning everyone on here who isn’t all in on what the program is curently has grown tiresome. You are going after anyone who isn’t over the moon over this game, me included. So just enjoy your headspace about the game and let us negative Nancy’s wallow in our own misery I promise all involved will be ok.

How do you figure that? I haven’t said anything about this bowl at all. Again it’s the same nonsense on here. The loudest
Mouths on here set the the tone with any particular topic and pat each other on the back and anyone who deviates from that narrative is bludgeoned into submission. The latest example is how honored and lucky we should all be to be able to witness this latest bowl and what a visionary our head coach is becasue hes going to coach in it. It’s ridiculous. I have no problem with someone being a glass half full guy, but sniping people who present valid counter points as just not being good supportive fans, rings hollow after the endless meltdown on here over Clark. I know you are proud of the zinger you worked hard to craft, but again, doesn’t apply.

The players “jumping ship” should not have been recruited to Appalachian State in the first place. That is the crux of the issue we are facing. They aren’t jumping ship. They are being told to leave because they do not meet the standards that our program now has.

And before 94, Seattle and Bcoach misinterpret my words - no I’m not talking about Burks, Dozier, Porter, Manuel, Kohl and players who proved their talent at this level. I’m talking about the vast majority in the portal who have never stepped foot on the field.

The “hater” reference was to bcoach (he/she) saying (on multiple occasions) that we didn’t deserve the bowl, how awesome it will be to lose one more time on ESPN and how he/she would hate Loggains for the remainder of his/her life if we lost.

He/She is more than welcome to back track now but I am sure that he/she appreciated you taking up for them. Chivalry isn’t dead after all!

Do I think the program is in a great spot? No and I don’t believe I ever stated that. Do I think the program is headed in the right direction? Yes. If you were aware of half of the truth, you would know that change isn’t easy but was required.

[T-Dog]

We still don't have an idea for the lineup for Dec.29?

We didn't know what the lineup was for the first game until the offense trudged on the BoA Stadium field. Dowell thinks we're all outsiders and it gives everyone else a competitive advantage if anyone outside of KBS knows even one starter.

Pretty ironic that I think it's ridiculous that we are playing in a bowl game, but agree it was the right call to accept the invitation.

I’d hate to see our record if they’d shared our lineups before the game.

I mean you’ve swiped at me for for being negative. you swiped at 94 yesterday. Honestly I don’t know many people who are excited about this game. And no we don’t deserve a bowl game and watching DLO’s fake enthusiasm for this game after being a despondent, borderline jerk to the media after many regular season games is humorous. But I’ll give it to him, he knows how to bs. But it’s got nothing to do with taking up for people, which ironically someone did for you on this very thread. (ASUTodd that’s what pot meet kettle means). It’s just that you are taking it personally if someone says anything that isn’t glowing about this current coach or team. I don’t know what would make anyone think this program is headed in the right direction other than the recruiting class that we still don’t know if the current staff has the ability to coach successfully. Only time will tell. And if next year it all falls into place and we are kickin Ass. I’ll will give you all the credit for calling it and say that I was 100% wrong. But surely you can see the other side of the coin as to how things seem a tad
Dysfunctional at the moment. I have no animosity toward you, I’m just not has high on DLO as you are. I hope I’m proven wrong
