Even though LaTech may be voted in, did/will App still be a NO vote? I hope so. And who else is with us? No, sounds like App and CCU were votes 9 and 10 last week. All 13 will vote yes on Monday I’d assume. We were not. Neither were they. Interesting Ark St fan seemed to indicate JMU, ODU, and Mars...

Who were the actual options to join the SBC? La Tech Ohio? WKU? UAB? MTSU? Bowling Green? Jax State? UNCC/ECU- probably not legit options. Georgraphically, those seem like the only G5 options. Hard to say with any certainty. UAB would be a stretch along with EZU and Concord simply because of the AA...

More than any property in the Sunbelt. But how much are we being devalued by our conference mates? I get that we are at the high end of the curve, but how far are we from the median? That is a good question to ask Doug Gillin where we stand. The goal should be to get in a league with schools that h...

There has not been any indication that ULM was going to be dropped. Sure their interim President explored it but he is no longer there.

The question that you have to ask is “What is App’s worth to a media contract?

Maybe I am wrong, if the coach has not communicated to the players on the current team who the leader in the clubhouse is ...would they really be telling recruits? That stuff gets back up the mountain as recruits come back up to campus. Seems it would be a big risk in losing trust with players on t...

Yes , of course. The AD , Chancellor and Board are aligned on this issue I am told.

Funny how much more smoothly thing run when everyone is working together.

1. Shows how much Clark’s talent evaluation of Non-OL was valued by other coaches that he was not taken seriously and no other coach supported him. 2. When your biggest recruiting get is a guy who beat you 3 times, that’s not a gotcha. 3. Yosef10, you hit the nail on the head. The fanbase that hate...

Clark lobbied hard to get McCall. Drink decided to go with a guy that was on the other side of the country that by all accounts he had no previous relationship with. This was the first of two colossal misses at the QB position for Drink. McCall likely didn’t commit because Satt had Conley rated high...

When I wake up on GameDay, none of the 3 get me excited about going to see the opponent. Although there is pressure to do something, patience may be best course of action. Who knows, something may come our way that is intriguing to App. St. versus adding to the conference. Although I like our confe...

I think we’ll run more variations of the 3-3-5 than most want but that will require someone to step up in that Hybrid Safety/Linebacker role that isn’t afraid to tackle. Cole was afraid to commit and tackle like Jackson did in 2023, so it didn’t work effectively. His inability to grasp the role lef...

Injuries are going to play a big part of any season but especially so this year as we transition from a 3-4 to a 4-3. I like what DJ is saying but the guys up front have to stay healthy. This is not a shot to DJ but I try to ignore what coaches say in the off-season because injuries, personnel perf...

There are a lot of question marks about DL as a head coach, but he has more hours evaluating QBs than any HC in our history.

But that experience still lags behind some of the Hall of Fame coaches that frequent this board.

Would you take the L at Charlotte for a W in Boise?

In half a heartbeat.

I know hindsight is 20/20 but, I could easily see in the first few series of Burger vs same for Aguilar that Joey was obviously better. Keep in mind it was against inferior competition, Gardner Webb, and anybody we believed would have been the starter (and 1st or 2nd backup) should have been able t...
