Re: Who is the "last great App State player"?

T Heni would be on my list. Ended career with App State record for career catches (242) while ranking No. 2 in career receiving yards (3,124) and No. 4 in career receiving TDs (23) He is definitely up there, but remember he did have an extra year. The dude was a starter for 5 years, I would hope he...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

I personally don't care if ND ever plays in another post season game. I don't think it's the death sentence that some on here do. The issues impacting the Bowl System have been building for years. I do think the number of Bowls will decrease but I don't think it dies out completely. Over the next 10...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

They should be mad that Alabama got in...not Miami. Alabama had three losses. By the way...i agree with the CFP......i thought they nailed the selections. Alabama's third loss is to a top 5 team in an extra game that Miami didn't have to play. I can't stand Bama, but they had multiple wins over ran...

Re: ACC

The AAC is running on fumes and past reputation. The Belt is down this year, but won't stay down. The AAC will get raided for talent this off season just like the SBC did last year and the Belt will cycle to the top....with the new PAC 12 (or whatever they ultimately call themselves) as the biggest ...

Ha! Fair enough! I stand corrected. I do think the ACC rules need to change though. Clearly flawed

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

They will change the rules. This will not happen again. I don't think the CFP rules need to be changed as much as the individual conference rules need to change. They aren't worried about the SEC or Big 10, but I bet they push the ACC and probably the Big 12 to make sure their championship game cri...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

Folks, the auto-bid rules were designed to allow representation....some sort of path....for all conferences. The intent was for the P4 champs to get in and for there to be ONE representative for the G5. This year, the ACC botched things and opened the door for the second G5 team. I really don't get ...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

Understood by-laws that the top five ranked conference champions make the CFP, what mental gymnastics will occur to keep ND, Miami, and Bama in over JMU? There are no mental gymnastics available other than elevating Duke. I don't think that happens. The ACC screwed the system and I am sure they cha...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

The CFP committee always makes a point of emphasizing that they are picking best not most deserving. If that is true then there is no way JMU gets in the field with the #123 SOS. Not as an at large bid, but that's not what we are talking about. They are now one of the highest ranked conference cham...

Re: ACC

I'm not sure if they are or aren't. ECU was actually pretty good. Weird things happen and when you have $4M a year to throw at a QB, even a mediocre program can make a splash.

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

JMU in with their SOC is just pittiful and is in no way a good look for the SB. It's less ridiculous than Liberty getting the NY6 bid a couple of years ago. Their SOS is weaker than usually largely because the conference is down. Their Strength of Record is strong though. It's a weird year for coll...

Re: What if we pulled a Miami 2.0 in 2026

I would love to get the SC game but I'm not sure 2026 is the year that it I best. If we were able to buy out Maine to do it, that would leave us playing OOC games against Charlotte, ECU, NC State and SC. We would have to make significant improvements (which hopefully we DO make) to win two of those ...

Re: Portal time 25-26

If he gets a big payday, he should go. If not material offer this year, have a season next year and consider the offers then. I do believe the change in blocking scheme was a benefit. He runs hard that is for sure. We have to get good OL in portal.....which is not easy. The incoming freshmen will n...

Re: Recruiting

The performance at QB was disappointing during this past season, but personally, I have more confidence in JJ. I understand that his ceiling might not be as high, but with an improved (healthy) OL, I think we do pretty well with JJ. That's more of a general feel than analytical opinion though.

Re: Portal time 25-26

I saw the posts where folks were concerned about Lewis hitting the portal (based on comments on social media), but I would think we make efforts to keep him. He's a proven commodity. Unless someone is offering him a ton, I would think that leaving a situation where he is the heir apparent as feature...
