T-Shirts
Has anyone come across any "interesting" t-shirts following the hole game?

Re: T-Shirts
I saw one on Twitter on Saturday night, celebrating the win. Immediately moved to the next tweet. Hoping that it isn't something that gets a ton of traction.

Re: T-Shirts
It would be like making a mythical "state champions" tshirt (BAD IDEA for anyone thinking about it). This was a big win for the program, but let's not make this a career/program defining victory. It ain't.

Re: T-Shirts
Sure it is --- I would wear one every time I saw one of heel fans - for years to come - If anyone is like me and had to listen to ball-less bs all these years I want to remind them every time I see them - THEY CAN'T HANDLE IT - IT DRIVES THEM NUTS ---

Golly gee, it was just the next game on the schedule and our Apps did what we expected 'em to do. Win! There's already another next game on our schedule... Back to business!

Re: T-Shirts
How about a baby blue t-shirt that states "State Champions 2nd Runner-Up"?BeauFoster wrote: ↑Mon Sep 23, 2019 1:40 pmIt would be like making a mythical "state champions" tshirt (BAD IDEA for anyone thinking about it).

Re: T-Shirts
Hey - I totally understand that and as a coach I took the same approach as Coach Drink - BUT I am a fan now and here in the triad/triangle we have heard their crap for 30 years - you probably aren't as inundated with hole fans up in your area ---

Re: T-Shirts
Per capita, there’s just as many Wally World Hole fans in Wilkes as the triad. It’s disgusting.

Re: T-Shirts
It's not a championship or a program defining win. We were supposed to win the game, so not shirt worthy.
On to the next game.

Re: T-Shirts
You are wrong I am afraid - it is a program defining moment - Yes, we all thought we would win - that's not the point ---

Re: T-Shirts
There's an email I got for an official one. While this is one of the sweetest wins I've ever experienced, I agree that I don't think this is something to print a t-shirt over. Michigan was different. Can't print a shirt every time we win vs a P5 school.

Re: T-Shirts
I saw some folks wearing some at the game “nothing could be finer than to beat both Carolinas”... I’m going to be looking for one of those before November

Re: T-Shirts
Help me understand how this win defines our program? We’re the university with 3 National Championships in football.
App 3
UNC 0
The thought of buying a tee shirt about this one game is just a bad idea in my opinion. Making a contribution to Yosef for the $$ you’d spend on a shirt is a great idea in my opinion.

Re: T-Shirts
one of the best shirts i recall us having (excluding any Michigan related) was back in the 80's. It was one of those similar to a rock band tour schedule. I believe it said something like the App State Kick Ass tour 198_. Obviously listed the opponents and the scores. Might have been an undefeated or obviously very good season.

Re: T-Shirts
Yeah, I’m not even talking about a celebratory shirt. I just like it in regards to an in-State rivalry and bragging rights game. As I said before the game, we had more to lose considering we are historically a better football program.wncapp78 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 23, 2019 3:23 pmHelp me understand how this win defines our program?

Re: T-Shirts
If this win is not (worthy) in a special sense why were players like Jordan Fehr and others so emotional after this game? There were a couple of articles addressing this. Look, I despise the holes as much as most of you. I think it is selling our players a little short to offhandedly dismiss this game as just another game.
