If this comes to fruition, we should sue NC State. We have a signed contract and then they go and contract with another school to play on the same date, it is a classic breach and we should enforce our rights. I am really tired of watching all these chicken #$%$ schools finding ways to back out of their contractually guaranteed games with us and doing nothing about it. Still waiting for Wake to "reschedule" the covid cancellation. They wanted the full crowd so bad that they have now waited 4 years and still nothing is scheduled. It was a bs excuse then and we let them off the hook while they went and played someone else. Then there is the South Carolina cancellation of coming to Boone, but they will let us play more games in Columbia, just bs again. Not sure why we don't enforce our rights. I get the "play nice so people will play with you" game, but when everyone stops playing with you it is time to stop playing nice! This is just pure predictable garbage. A lot of people on here like to bash UNC, but at least they agreed to play us and honored their agreement even after we took the first game of the series. Say what you will, but they did something that evidently not many other P4 schools will do. And I am not a Tarheel fan btw, just giving credit where credit is do. This pisses me off so much.

Even if it's not an outright cancelation, postponing an in-state game less than 2 years out is a clown move. And App already has an FCS on the schedule

Hopefully we keep the game, but it wouldn’t surprise me if they back out.

Unfortunately, they have nothing to gain by coming to Boone. Mac Brown deserves a ton of credit for playing us 3 times.

I love these type of games in Boone, but it’s actually move devastating to the opponent when we win at their place.

Sure. I get that. But what if this is a situation that is beneficial to App and possibly broached by App? We already have two other OOC games at home and a third in Charlotte. If we could somehow pull off a H/H with another school where we are on the road in 2025, that creates two future home dates, (a rescheduled State and the back end of a H/H). Like I said, let’s see how it plays out before we jump to conclusions.

no silver lining here. Just let them pay the buyout fee and move on. Kicking the can down the road they are only going to renegotiate again and leave us hanging.
