Re: Mid-season halfway point grade?

It is too early to tell. However, on offense, 90 plus grind it out drives, converting on 3rd and longs, 4th and short and scoring in the red zone are all qualities missing last year. Defense; hard hitting, wrapping up on tackles and pressuring the opposing QB not to mention interceptions, again, qua...

Re: Oreg St at 3:30pm - Discussion

I wasn't able to be at the game; sold all 4 of my tickets to support the wife at her 40 year reunion. I did watch the game twice or at least most of it twice. Our QB is definitely not our problem; he, whoever he is, is throwing to a weak group of WRs, mostly from a consistency standpoint. Some of th...

Re: Boise Discussion - 7:30pm

ESPN shows Boise -16.5 I think that says more about how they see us than how strong they think Boise is. We will have had 2 weeks to recover and to fix mistakes; I think that's a tough spread for Boise to cover. I hope it is anyway. Probably depends on the health of our 1 & 2 QBs along with some cr...

Re: Private Equity in College Athletics

The possibility of private equity in college athletics is, in my opinion, way worse than the portal, NIL or the House Settlement. These aren't donations. These would with anticipation of an ROI. And that ROI won't be trophies. Completely agree with you. Hard to believe anything worse than the NIL o...

Re: Boone Restaurants Closing

When i started at App the restaurant occupying the space where the Red Onion resides today was a pizza place. The worst pizza I've ever had at a restaurant. Red Onion was a nice upgrade. It is sad to see it go. Loved the food, especially the fried zucchini strips appetizer. Also, it's where I met my...

Don’t believe in the new system and not going to support something we don’t believe in. We're not to that point yet but I'd be lying if I said College Football gives m...

Re: Traditions, rivalries, etc.

Rivalries for the fans will not change and that's what most of us see but the hate that drives player performance in those rivalry games can't help but change. It won't be the same for guys who, in the past, might have lined up against the same guy for 4 years. It's that familiarity and strong perso...

Re: App Transfer Portal 2025 - OUT

I keep coming on here to see if any new players are transferring out only to read post after post grousing about the Portal and NIL. So, I'll throw in my two cents. Most of these kids are either looking for more playing time or more dollars. I have never held it against a kid for leaving a program h...
