No on Bo's. There are no good ones. My wife and kids like it. If we are traveling and they want Bo's, we are stopping at two places ..the second place for me..

Bojangles or bust. However, there are good Bojangles and bad Bojangles. You get a bad Bojangles and it can ruin your experience and cause you to incorrectly think that there is other better chicken options. One caveat, I don’t do bones like some of you. I’m a Cajun Filet Biscuit with seasoned fries guy.
I was recently informed Bojangles is making its way to Vegas and to Los Angeles. I haven’t had Bojangles since moving out here after graduating and every Carolinian (North and South variety) I know here is excited.

I’m right there with you on the Cajun Filet Biscuits. Hopefully the new coordinators are as good as that thing is delicious (my loose attempt to stay on topic).
There are some Bojangles in Charlotte that are awful. Woodlawn, one of the first 10 locations ever, is pretty good. Service kind of sucks, but they are the only one in Charlotte I go to. One of the best is on Western in Raleigh. Wilksboro location and Boone on 321 are alright.

Ponce to FIU, associate head coach/TE, per footballscoop.
Juatin Watts most likely gets an assists here on this one.... Simmons was at Duke with Watts, Watts probably said Ponce was a no brainer in South Florida recruiting.

I don’t really do fast food at all- occasional Starbucks breakfast when I’m traveling for work, but Bojos is nothing more than a corpo chain at this point. Any connection to nc is long gone

No connection to NC? The company was founded in NC, the headquarters are in NC and nearly half the stores are located in NC. I would say Bojangles is very connected to NC.

Some of the coaches we have talked to are wrapping up at their current schools today I believe. I can not say there will be announcements Monday or so , but it would not surprise me.

When traveling for work, Bojangle’s offers fast food with veggies, which is a plus when the schedule is tight. With, that said when the Venture Capitalists took over, it is not what it once was. Ask any of the managers.

Green Beans and Pintos count for something. 😎

The pintos are tasty and something a little different. I have to agree the quality has dipped consistently over the years. The steak biscuit was , back in the day , an early morning treat. Not so much these days.

I was at a Shoneys for lunch in TN today. I asked the waitress what time zone we were in (we were close to where it changes) and she said she had no idea. 🥴

I can't help buy get my expectations up with each of these hires. Probably the most experience in years we've ever had overall.
