I haven’t talked to anyone but it appears that every effort is being made to play in Boone.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
Obviously not on the level of a football game, but App State field hockey takes on #1 UNC TarHeels in Boone today. Small steps back to normalcy.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
We won't have 35k but we also won't drop to 15k either. I think we will be around 25-29k. I think Shawn better win the next 2 games or attendance will drop even more and Gillin will definitely decide to move on due to seeing attendance and revenue decrease.DenverOfTheEast wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 12:30 pmNo. I want to see how people are faithful during tough time for the program or are they like UNC and only have 15k yesterday.Mjohn1988 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 10:22 amDude, it like you want bad things to happen.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
Gillin should have already made the decision. That’s what is scary. No one is willing to lay their n*t’s on the table for this program to right the ship and turn it around.AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 1:20 pmWe won't have 35k but we also won't drop to 15k either.

No chance 30k show up with a 2-4 record, Hurricane Helene and the Charlotte Luke concert.
Closer to 20k than 30. And that’s mostly students.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
I’d go students and staff only for first game and see how it goes. We’re asking for a cluster if we host 30k.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
Not gloating about attendance, BUT just think a team that only has 9% chance to make a Bowl game at this point having 25k for a home game, be pretty sweet.311neers wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 1:25 pmGillin should have already made the decision.

Other factors the later in the year the colder it gets the less fans show up typically. App Fans are different though,
some are still struggling, no water at most areas in Jeff, Watauga and counties west.
Be a testament to their resolve and faithfulness. Linville Ridge just got power last night, still no water in much of Avery.
Gillin will NOT make a mid year move, that's not his style and there isn't anyone on staff that can jolt the players to turn it around. Let it ride out and #cleanhouse
The unfortunate thing is he will still be around and that's sad, because he's as much of the issue as on field play.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
We have one of best fan bases. It will be crowded for sure, but not what it should be for homecoming. It’s a testament to our fan base and University that our fans will show up now matter what.

That’s what TIGMA is about. No matter what, we still show up.
And I’m not saying you let him go now, but you make the decision today that it’s over and what happens the rest of the year doesn’t matter. Maybe you don’t tell him, but hold strong. Don’t let him win 2-3 games and re-think it. Stick to your guns, we need new blood.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
I would be disappointed if gillin did make a decision before seasons end. It is not going to add much value or advantages....and coach Clark deserves to coach out the season.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
Gillin can't have made the decision yet because if we win out from here then it would look bad to fire a coach who was hot in November and went from 2-4 to a 7-4 record. I think Shawn has to lose 2 more before Gillin makes the final decision to move on from him.311neers wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 1:25 pmGillin should have already made the decision.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
7 wins was never good enough for him to return. Why the switch up now? We went from “the year” hoping to make playoffs, to the floor being 9 wins, to now praying for a miracle to get 7. Where do you draw the line? 7 wins signals mediocrity and complacency in year 5 when we were were told “this is the year”. In no circumstances outside of an SBC title game should he return.AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 2:30 pmGillin can't have made the decision yet because if we win out from here then it would look bad to fire a coach who was hot in November and went from 2-4 to a 7-4 record.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
The reason I am guessing he needs to lose 1 or 2 more, likely 2 more to ensure a change, is because of the hurricane situation. There will be many people screaming loud for one more year if he wins 7. I want Shawn to turn this around but I just don't think he will. I expect to lose 2 more and for Gillin to make a change on Dec 2 or so but Gillin is going to let this play out. There is no chance he fires him this month. Who would you put as interim head coach?311neers wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 2:59 pm7 wins was never good enough for him to return. Why the switch up now?

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
Gillin made his mind up the night of South Alabama loss, that was the beginning of the end for #TeamClark for good. aint no flipping the decision this year.
#TeamClark survived last year Wyoming, UL Monroe gauntlet that Gillin wanted to run him out, but with the JMU win had #TeamClark safe.

Re: Home Season Moving Forward
I agree. I wish there was a way to give the locals a chance as well, but trying to decipher who is and who isn’t would probably be tough. The people of Boone and surrounding area could probably use an outlet for a few hours to take their mind off what happened.

If Gillin has made his mind up though then he should be looking around for quality coaching candidates and be prepared to move very fast on Dec 2.
