I like the way coach takes responsibility for his mistakes. I still believe in the guy. This season was derailed by major injuries to the o line. Give the man some time folks.

Are you retarded? Any human who pretends like anything this team has done in the last 4 years is anything but a discrace to this program should be ashamed.

Are you a kid or just a really old person who barely produces testasterone anymore? You are literally celebrating having a 'chance' at being .500.

You people make me sick.

One thing is for certain, bone head play calling aside, unlike the previous weeks the team definitely showed up to play yesterday. They exhibited heart, the win is credited to them.

I think coach is starting to understand App culture. The kids have not given up and we will be better next year.
God bless App State and God bless America!!

I’ll readily admit I’m completely cynical about the state of major “college” athletics now and I believe that the financial aspect is ruining much of the joy. I’m not naive to think that stars haven’t been paid for years. Cars showed up in driveways and envelopes were being passed. We all know about that stuff. I also want to believe that a majority of these young people still simply enjoy competing and hopefully a great majority love the school they play for. I’d be interested to know what the flip side of Portal numbers are. What is the percentage of football, basketball and I’ll add baseball players who actually stick it out at the schools they sign with. You really never see or hear those numbers. I wager it’s probably much higher than 50%- at least I hope so.

I agree with your sentiment in general, but somewhat related to that is the fact that only around 50% (maybe lower) of high schoolers entering traditional 4 year undergrad programs in college graduate from the the school they first enroll in out of high school, so it is probably unfair to hold student-arhletes to a higher standard than regular undergrads.

Then again, most students who drop out or transfer do it for financial reasons. So maybe athletes should only be conpared to ither students who receive significant financial support from the school and I would guess the percentage in that catagory who finish at the same school is much higher than 50%.

Agreed, we don’t have near the talent on defense, but those guys hustled to the ball all game and put enough pressure on the ball carriers to force fumbles.

The oline played much better, I noticed we pulled guards at a higher rate and it really opened up holes. Let’s continue to run the ball like that!

Even as many times as it’s been said, I still think the effect of injuries on this team is downplayed. DL hasn’t had time to recruit for depth and App has had SO many injuries. Looking at the game preview for next week on ESPN app- all of our offensive statistical leaders were injured yesterday. Still found a way to win.

The team played as hard as they have all year and that was nice to see. Really hope they win next game and get a bowl. The extra practice really helps for the upcoming year. Go App!

I get you but I wasn’t even thinking about graduating per se. I was really wondering about the general percentage that doesn’t transfer out purely for portal reasons. I know that even in the old world if we signed 15 players in the regular signing period all of them would not make it through 4-5 years for various reasons. So I’m interested in the general percentage who don’t enter the portal at all.
