Can't tell...but is it raining there?...also if it gets bad rain wise say in the 4th inning...and they call the game...do we get the win?

Not raining at the moment. Sun just came back out. Lightening is in Banner Elk

Think we’ll play a home game with leaves on the trees?

Not sure but that first game felt like it was played on the surface of the sun.

Improved pass protection is key. That is the weak link of our offense

South Al fans checking the score from church.

One of my all time favorite Harry Doyle lines.

Was that our best pitching performance of the year? It’s up there.

Find a way to win 1 more! Is Steensma good to go?

No.

Guys this size that are the portal this late are there for a reason. Just need to figure out the reaons(s).

Just make the throw!

Agree. He was trying to get the force.

Banks bash!
4-1. Let’s get a big lead here knowing we could be up against a time limit.

That error was on the 3rd base coach.

I’ll take a wait and see approach on all of these guys. One would hope that the staff wouldn’t take someone if they didn’t feel like they could perform in the scheme. I get that they are shiny new toys from P5 programs but what’s in the name on the back of the jersey that should level set expectatio...

It's GameDay!! Let's Go App. St.!!
3 is the magic number and we got 33 taking the mound to even the series.

It’s my understanding is that 33 isn’t pitching today.

Speaking for those of us who still spend extended periods of time up there during the winter, I'll respectfully disagree. Not to mention how winter goes on and on and on...much like it does in the northern US. I've lived in Boone full time for over thirty years, and the winters are most definitely ...

I do wonder if there is an exit experience survey done of students leaving ( except those flunking out)

Interesting question and idea. Coaches and players discuss it but I don’t know if there is a formal “exit interview” for those leaving.

We have a few things to address and clean up before I would feel good about our chances of beating a Clemson.

Does anyone know when those on the season ticket waiting list will hear whether or not they were selected?

I know that renewals are done and as of last week they were reallocating requests to move seats for current seat holders. You may want to call them. 828-262-7733.

Ask yourself this. If it was your child that passed, would you feel the same way towards telling folks? Not shaming, just adding a perspective to the conversation.

I know I will never know, but I would like to know how academics affect the portal entries and exits. Are we worried about the grades if they are only playing one year? Can we bring a student in with bad grades who has no intentions of having a college degree just to play ball for a year? I guess i...

We really need an Omaha run for baseball to get us thru early summer. College football with the portal/NIL makes me want to not pay attention until September.

Doubt his entrance is NIL related.

DL and OL are the most over inflated positions in the portal market. Why? Because everyone needs them and they know this and leverage it in negotiations. Getting one isn’t guaranteed quality as that carcass has been picked and cleaned. Is the quality in FCS not good enough for us to pluck or are we...

3,600 players entered the portal in the 2023-2024 academic calendar year. College Football is toast. Is the portal a study in todays world of instant gratification and discontentment or a fear of missing out? I don’t think that college football is toast. Rather it is moe likely entering a perpetual...
