Re: App Transfer Portal 2025 - IN
The Rebs have been working hard behind the scenes, building vision, groundwork and commitment to become a legit G5 power. When P4 realignment happens, they’ll be a prime target to make like the Jeffersons. They certainly are. There are a few others doing that as well. I never understood why UNLV wa...

Re: App Transfer Portal 2025 - OUT
Yep everyone is making money that is involved, so it won't change. Nor should it change, because if a coach can leave at any time the players should be able to leave as well. The folly in that thinking is the assumption $$$ will continue to flow in via ticket sales/donations. We have seen this movi...

Re: Judge says JuCo years don't count vs NCAA eligibility - Aguilar, K-Rob returning?
The JUCO thing is just a temporary injunction for Diego Pavia only right now. While there will likely be a lawsuit more broader soon, I don’t think the NCAA is going to go down without a fight to just allow additional years of eligibility. UNC destroyed any fight the NCAA had left. They’ve been goi...

Re: Realistic coaching options for 2025...
Well, I’ll have to say I’m underwhelmed HOWEVER, this reminds me of the Drinkwitz hire. I felt the same way. I’ll get on board. I’m not sure there are many similarities other than it’s an OC from a state university in the Carolinas. This doesn’t seem like a safe pick, and it doesn’t seem like a hig...

Re: Worst I’ve ever seen
Regardless of if he was prompted to make it, the timing for Hannon’s statement couldn’t have been worse. It may as well have gone down like this: Alumni: “ Most of the team phoned it in last night and didn’t seem ashamed to do it .” Hannon: “ The abject failure you witnessed at KBS last night may l...

Re: G5 Poll
G5 will become feeder program for P5 in the NIL era. I don’t think coaches look at that way. They want players that want to play. They aren’t interested in guys looking for cash. Here is an article on Brian Kelly’s approach on transfers. https://blondiewithlove.it/2024/05/08/bl-wlv/RTsd245818LtCu40...

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
Weather looks bad for the weekend. Will the JMU series get played? I remember a snow game in April in Boone. We were wearing white. Had the heaters going in the dugout and 15 dudes huddled in the bathroom to stay warm. The kids from Florida were questioning why they came to App State. Furman coach ...

Re: MBB at Wake Forest, NIT 1st round, Wednesday, March 20, 2024, 8:00 p.m., ESPN+, LJVM, Winston-Salem, 421 Warfare
Our only chance at sustained mid major success is to become a premier place to develop players for higher levels of play whether that be the top teams or the nba draft. I don't see keeping players as the biggest problem. To me the biggest problem is being able to keep a coach that can develop a pro...

Re: More NCAA stupidity; can't make this up
NCSU swimmer won the 1650 freestyle and was disqualified because he "interfered with another swimmer." His crime? He straddled the lane rope, celebrated, and then fell into his teammate's lane AFTER THE RACE was finished. That organization and the clowns who run that circus are so FUBAR it's not ev...

Re: War Eggles/Plainsmen
Excited for the current students. I graduated in 2007, we got the tail end of some good basketball then (deep SOCON tournament runs and such) but man this will really electrify the students. I worked at App Ski Mountain for 3 years so I missed a lot of games. This win would've had me calling in sic...

Re: Cure bowl vs Miami (OH)
Worry a lot of SBC members were backsliding the last half of the season and could look bad as a conference over all. Even JMU with losing coach/QB they could be a different team. Most anytime a team loses a starting QB spells trouble. I'm not speaking of our case in game 1. The Sun Belt will have t...

Re: One more time, let’s keep digging
I have watched games for decades and I don't remember ever seeing a coach go that crazy on the sideline - lost all respect for him with that display - And no flag - RIDICULOUS - and he let his team get way too mouthy - Refs were questionable (not saying they cost us the game) I agree Sumrall showed...

Re: 2023 Baseball Mega Thread
Baseball is a lot trickier process to hire. No assistant from a successful school is going to leave for a mid-level Sun Belt job. The only way I wouldn't re-sign Smith is if Paul Oneil would leave Pembroke to come back up the mountain, and that's not happening. We wouldn’t want to hire an assistant...
