Re: Bill Mauldin
Know him well. We started together at App Fall 1963 and graduated together spring 1967. We lived in Justice and then Newland hall, wife Linda, an App grad also. They live in Blowing Rock. Super nice couple and great alumni. Great representative of Albemarle/Stanly County and lover of it. Calls it h...

Bill Mauldin
Anyone on here old enough to remember Bill Mauldin? He played at App back in the day. Bill gave an acceptance speech for his induction into the Stanly County Sports Hall of Fame last night on the campus of Pfeiffer "University." Evidently he played football and another sport at App. He was very emot...

Re: Did Ya Know?
I never mentioned Cline, I was referring to ASU71. You just assumed I was talking about Cline which I was not familiar with until Beau posted. Well then, podner, you are the only one on here who wasn't familiar with it. Haven't used ASU71 in maybe 20 years unless it was an isolated incident. You're ...

Re: Did Ya Know?
Since you are using his former name, does that make it ok to use your former name? I used his former name because I followed his days at Power Central and was hoping he would come to NC to play at Duke, Carolina, or Wake. And Cline has always been my name. It was my Dad's name. May he RIP. Just use...

Did Ya Know?
Lew Alcindor’s mother was from NC? He’ll always be Lew Alcindor to me because that was his name when we fans watched along as he was being recruited. Quite a back story. Love his ads on TV. They have helped save a lot of lives

Re: Portal vs Grad rate for athletes
Is the portal (and NIL) the main reason our athlete grad rate is relatively low? I know our athletes are at least as intelligent as our rivals. 80 out of 1600 athletes. Or 80 out of approx. 4000 total grads. Is the graduation rate low, or is it just a small number of graduates? That is a very signi...

Re: NC State series in danger?
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 ...

Re: Is it time to rethink the sports we offer ?
Just noticed in an email from the interim chancellor's office that we only had 80 student athlete graduates this term. Is that a small number for 16 sports and overall 4100 graduates? As to Wrestling, I think WataugaMan would likely disagree with minimizing the impact of our wrestling program in the...

Re: Is it time to rethink the sports we offer ?
IF funds were to be reinvested in other programs baseball might be one to look at closely. We play in a marquee conference and there is a ton of interest in college baseball. Not sure how additional funds would really make a difference but in my opinion we aren't very far off from becoming a progra...
