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.

Those two things are not mutually exclusive.

ya this was a predictable outcome, Im sure Fox probably reached out to him to find out if there was any chance of him changing his mind, once it became apparent that it wouldn't happen he let him go. Cant blame him, he wants to start with a clean slate, and he knows how tough it is to recruit at App, he is trying to show future recruits that he is a good guy to play for. Still, this doesn't sit well with me, it was obvious bigger schools basically said f(@k little App State, if we want one of their recruits, there are ways around the rules to take him. Im proud that the administration took the stand they did, Peacock has always said we will not take a backseat to any of the bigger schools, I think it proved that with how they handled Graham

Judging on how many Jayhawk, Wolfpack and Gator fans are retweeting the news, his character issues will be overlooked.

Can we PLEASE close this thread now and finally get over that bridge and burn that Son of an unnamed Catamount to the ground? (The bridge not him)
That's what I do. I gripe and I know things.

I agree. Put this thread where it belongs. Good news for everyone on the board is you won't have to read this crap anymore. I, on the other hand, am going to be reading it for days, if not weeks, while I do my searching. What a joy. :roll:

I'd love to see us meet his newly chosen school in the NCAA tournament and beat their arses and hold him to triple zeros.
