An impressive young woman, for sure. I look forward to seeing the direction of the program under her leadership.

No bad experiences watching App play.

We’ll have to agree to disagree. As proof, allow me to point to App/JMU @ KBS back in 2022.

Talk about no joy in Mudville…

Great piece, thank you for sharing!

IF McCall can stay healthy, he immediately makes them a legit Top 50 team…but not a Top 25 team.

Cline, is this another one of those clickbait threads you love to create?

This article couldn’t have come at a better time. For a while now, I was beginning to think people here were running out of stuff to argue about.

With the ACC threatening to self-destruct, I think the Pack has bigger things to worry about than honoring their deal with App.

In my experience, leading people in performance-based roles is about setting clear expectations, removing obstacles (when/where possible) and focusing on what's within your circle of control.

Kelly put Notre Dame on probation for illegally contacting players. If you think that is the extent he, and any other P4 coach with a shot at the natty, go to win, cool, you're allowed to believe that. But don't get all defensive asking for proof knowing full well there won't be proof. That's like ...

Interesting to see Missouri at 78, but I suppose being in the SEC West is a big factor.
I wonder how that will impact their rankings this season? Definitely can't help.

It would be quite difficult to prove collusion, especially given that the entity controlling it all (ESPN) perpetually stacks the deck in favor of the SEC/B10 because it aligns with their objectives (increasing ad revenue). The Mothership doesn't have to collude with anyone in this. So maybe the leg...

Landing Donald is nothing short of a coup for App. Ratchets up the competition at NT, builds depth and gets this young man closer to home. And poaching him from a conference foe doesn't feel too bad, either.

I think if laws like this get passed across the nation, it will just be an added catalyst to push athletics to separate from schools and be their own entity of semi-pro/minor league sports that just use the name and likeness of the schools for their teams. I still think the split from the academic ...

Let's be real...This bill is the legislatures concession to allow NCSU and UNC to go to the SEC and BIG10. If we see it pass without much trouble it means the moves are a done deal and we'll see it happen before SMU, Cal & Stanford are official ACC members so they can't vote against it. This is goo...

It's not as cold up there as it used to be. 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...

It baffles me how someone can choose to get angry because media outlets actually did the right thing and respected the family's wishes for privacy. What a miserable human being.

I wore shorts in during cold weather for many years following graduation...a habit I picked up on the mountain.

On the men's side, European players are much more fundamentally sound in the game of bball

It's probably because they're allowed to smoke cigarettes on the bench over there.
Wait...maybe that's just in the Balkans...?

Dabo needs a big win over App to quiet down the boosters. He's still recovering from the puppet show he put on in front of the media last season.
