I also agree with his ranking of "The Wire". Wife and I have been binge watching for the last week.
Nice article.
We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Hate to be that freeloader, but could I get the cliff notes on what it says about App? It's behind the ESPN+ paywall and I'm not a subscriber.

Re: Here is some respect AppState deserves!!!!!!!
In a nutshell; It’s a clear indication that ESPN is running out of things to write about. Seriously though, it’s a proposal to do away with polls and have tiers and the author used Netflix shows to correlate the teams in the tier.citroknight wrote: ↑Wed Apr 29, 2020 12:14 amHate to be that freeloader, but could I get the cliff notes on what it says about App?

As the lack of sports continues, it's only a matter of time before we get articles comparing each top 25 team to a TikTok influencer.

It takes the top 50ish teams and breaks them into 6 tiers, with App being tier 4.citroknight wrote: ↑Wed Apr 29, 2020 12:14 amHate to be that freeloader, but could I get the cliff notes on what it says about App? It's behind the ESPN+ paywall and I'm not a subscriber.

Re: Here is some respect AppState deserves!!!!!!!
Anyone who thinks UNC is a relevant football program is not a credible source. Its lazy writing and its insulting to the sport as a whole.
They sacrificed academic integrity for athletic eligibility. Their fan base is paper thin and if it wasn't for guys like this who keep saying they're name they would only be an after thought.

They were lumped into a group that it basically said gets a lot of hype for no good reason. I don’t really read that as a compliment to UNC.kornegaylw wrote: ↑Wed Apr 29, 2020 10:04 amAnyone who thinks UNC is a relevant football program is not a credible source.
