Hearing some positive rumors floating around today. I’ll keep y’all posted. Stay tuned :)
Steve Wilks for DC it is. Woody comes back as a position coach. Nick Saban becomes Assistant AD? $100 mm donation made to fire Fox, remove the track, get basketball in the win column, and pay for App's buy in to the AAC?

Heard Steph Curry found an extra year of eligibility too and wants to come to App to finish out.

All of Houston's staff is being let go. Wonder if there is anyone there who could come to App?

With a twitter handle like Ivey's, does he really need to be announced?

It was changed after my post. He's also changed his header picture to the cardinal and info as DL coach for Louisville.

Disagree. Boone is technically in the Charlotte media market. The problem is we have not been aggressive in bolstering that. I had this very conversation with DG as I think we can pull off getting Charlotte behind us like Atlanta-Athens. WFNZ was all over us this year compared to the past, radio is a good start.

I'm of the opinion that due to App's location and the fact most alumni makes their way down the mountain and up the 85/40 corridor that they should be in both the Raleigh and Charlotte media markets. There is App gear all over both cities and more coverage would be received by interested parties.

Great idea. The attendance at our exhibition last year showed that the city of Charlotte would support FBS football, if given the opportunity. :D

But it spurred a legitimate discussion. Good job.

AAC would definitely be a significant step up, but at the same time, might we be risking the fate of a once proud ECU, not to mention, our basketball program sucks in the SB, what will it do in a higher level conferences. If we could turn all these things around, I'm in. Rumors, not with standing.

Where are you seeing this? If so looks like another good pick up. At GT now, but had a very long stint at Auburn, as well as some time at Ole Miss. If true, love his experience. GO APPS!!
