I doubt you have ever done that.

If you did have that level of access I would question your bias creeping in to discussions of this nature.

Something so simple and you have chosen to die on a hill of inconsistent statements and attempts at deflection.

Coaches, like everyone else in life, make mistakes. Fortunately for me mine aren't viewed by thousands of passionate viewers. You take offense to anyone highlighting just one of those furthering the evidence of your bias and contradicting your statement of removing emotion.

No offense taken. I don’t care if you agree with me or not. You are entitled to your opinion, as am I. The difference between you and I is that I don’t try and bully those that don’t agree with me like you did with the nice lady that graduated from App but donates to Carolina. I’m sure it’s just an ego thing that you and your therapist will work through with time and effort. You have a fantastic day. God bless.

You view pointing out your inconsistencies as bullying? I've not insulted you personally, however you have attempted to with the therapist comment, take the high road next time you lose a debate.

If you want to engage in a discussion bring your support and don't use flawed logic by contradicting yourself.

One of my favorite posters here is Hapapp, and we have disagreed about a lot of things for 20 years now. But he is consistent, logical, and puts Appalachian first above his own desires/personal relationships.

Oh and never donate anything to UNCCH, they aren't our friends and don't need your money.

D1 players can handle criticism they get it everyday from these coaches. It’s called coaching, not baby sitting.

There is a disconnect between what society believes and the fragility of college players.
I think the disconnect is some of the couch warriors that permeate this board are mad that the head coach is not pandering to their outrage by throwing individual players under the bus. Clark doesn’t owe us sticking his players head’s on a stick so we can feel validated about our outrage. And I played plenty of sports with plenty of tough coaches so I agree with you in one respect but I feel like the people moaning about Clark’s comments are mad because they already mad at player a and want him to substantiate their opinion

Exactly - I think we can all be assured that Coach Clark has "discussed" this with individual players and grouping - He does need to make any of this public ---

Exactly, Louisiana can't score points and Marshall put together one drive. If Louisiana loses this one, any hope for a repeat is over.

However, this one might end up as a tie/no result. It looks like weather may be around for a couple of hours. I'm not sure at what point you would suspend the game.

I've been telling people for weeks now. If we throw the ball downfield 15-20 yards, Marshall can't stop us. Their DBs aren't that good on the medium pass plays.

A coach isn’t going to do that, we are suffering from two extremes in the fan base when the majority of us want to have a normal discussion of what went wrong/right. Mirrors society on many different topics unfortunately.

I don’t disagree. I’m just kind of surprised the number of folks on here who are mad that Clark isn’t throwing his players under the bus. It’s a weird thing to be outraged about. I’ve also noticed these are the same people that never actually discuss X’s and O’s. It’s just “we suck” and I don’t like the way I feel after App loses and if you don’t agree then you aren’t a real fan and you don’t care

I’m feeling much better about our future schedule, provided we can regroup and improve.

And, their offensive line can't block on third and long. Louisiana should be up by 20 and they are letting them hang around. Both teams are committing stupid game-affecting penalties. It's like the pre-season three top Sun Belt programs are going down the same whirlpool.

Perfect example on that 32 yard TD pass. Guess they can't tackle too.

Rode to conference championship is a process of elimination. As of today, we control our own destiny against Marsha, Stink and Ga. St.

So need help on Beach Chickens and ODU at current moment.

Let's just win App. St.!!

JMU vs Coastal in the grand finale is a blessing for us. I also think Coastal can lose before them, their record hides just how close every game has been.

We have the talent to win what’s a head of us, but are entirely capable of losing to anyone as we’ve already lost to the worst the conference has to offer.

Marshall didn’t look like what I expected. I do have concerns about how physical they can get in the run game. If I was Marshall I would absolutely make us stop the pound it up the middle run. UL has some DB’S that will lay the wood to you.
