Re: The J Cline Memorial Celebrity Obituaries

When I was at App (88-93), it was kind of a big deal that the water wheel outside of Geno's was used in The Princess Bride movie. It was one of the first times I realized the extraordinary lengths that film makers go to get one aspect of a scene. Like, couldn't they just build out a water wheel on ...

Re: Historical Excellent QB play

I still think DP got a bad concussion on that last play at Georgia Southern when he fumbled to end the game. He had virtually identical stats to Armanti through that game and then fell off a cliff. Amazing what he did after he switched positions though! Not many players can switch to DB and make it...

Re: Portal time 25-26

Some interesting JMU NIL numbers, reported in the athletic, based of FOIA requests, "James Madison’s revenue-sharing budget is a little more than $1 million, according to its payroll data. That figure is split among 34 players (whose names were redacted). Two players are making $65,000, and four ar...

Re: 20 Years Ago Tonight

It was an amazing night, that first win was something else. It was so nice to finally reach the level that our peers had already achieved. I had previously seen Furman, Marshall and Georgia Southern all win National Titles, it was great to join that group after all those years. When Richie came in o...

Re: Historical Excellent QB play

Wasn’t Pressley a QB for the season after Armanti? You are correct. I was just being lazy and going by the years mentioned and Jamal said from 2010-2013 so I thought it was continual. But you are right, Pressley started all of 2010 (except 1 game and a few games of 2011 before Jamal took over the s...

Historical Excellent QB play

I just stumbled upon this little tidbit and it surprised me even though I have seen them all and knew what they did. I didn't realize this until I saw the stats, so I thought I would share. We have really been blessed to have excellent QB play continually since 1999 (relative to App State football h...

This is kind of tough. I kind of have a standard for these things. Even before the portal I felt like you needed to be a big contributor for 3 or more years.

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...

Just found this article on Kohl. Interesting part toward the very end of the article, "Kohl wasn't guaranteed to be the starter at Appalachian State in 2026. He'll likely be searching for a scenario where he'll be able to command a quarterback room and play a ton of snaps next season." If the guy is...

Nevermind. Prosecutors charged Moore with felony third-degree home invasion and two misdemeanors: stalking in a domestic relationship and breaking and entering. Moore was released from jail after meeting the $25,000 bond. If the "victim" of the home invasion is the paramour who turned him in, proba...

I have nothing to add to this that hasn't already been said. However, the fact that this is even an argument shows how ridiculous, corrupt, and money-hungry college football has become.
