If he can get these guys to play together early on, could be a special season. Has a ton of scorers and some rebounders. If we could close out on one more big, I’d feel even better.

We gotta find a way to not be running on fumes with 6 guys by March.

Debating if Shawn or Jerry would be successful in this NIL era is not going to be good for this board's mental state. It would be tough to compare 100% for sure. Would Jerry Moore have used the portal as much as Shawn did if he had it? Jerry's staff did a better job of finding and landing HS talent...

Sun belt may not be as good as everyone thought.

Everyone else won their elimination games

its crazy that a full athletic scholarship just means nothing now....i mean they get that plus all this other money...rediculous.... As a society we have spent the last 20 years plus demonizing higher education as a waste of time and money, that has consequences. People can't on one hand say "this ...

Academics? A life changing education? A generational accomplishment? Pooooffff! Nowadays that’s an amazing benefit and opportunity except if you play college football. Apparently the players can only make money playing. It’s crazy to me how we proclaim to “care” so much about these kids but are mor...

Less than stellar predictions for the boys. I know it's just a crappy, superficial look, but it still hurts to see. https://collegefootballnews.com/college-football/app-state-mountaineers-college-football-preview-2026 https://collegefootballnews.com/college-football/sun-belt-football-rankings-sprin...

Money does not equate wins. Take the amount of money that UNC-Ch is spending compared to Appalachian. We went 5 and 8 and they went 4 and 8. We had more wins that cost less to get than theirs. Granted, we are in different conferences, but I believe were we in the ACC we would do better than just fo...

The ultimate judge on how a staff does is if they win games. AppSt94 is the one who has said he does not think Loggains is the right guy but I have said I think he needs at least 3 years. We have spent more money than ever before and he made a lot of changes so we will see if it works out. I just th...

Doesn’t make sense how someone can be negative about QBs checking down and then say the secondary didn’t look good. Aren’t the two related? Run game looks bad? Maybe because we were playing 2 guys who won’t see the field due to injury. People just look for negatives. Their twitter name sheds lights...

I'm lost. Did Luke buy us a parking lot and demand ticket prices go up so we can compete at the FCS level?

I’m so confused as to the winding road this thread has taken

This is why we can’t have nice things at App. It’s because we turn on our own at the slightest provocation.

The insecurity on this board is staggering.

Luke can go put on baby blue for all I care now. He didn’t even graduate.

Well this is just a dumb take

Now that my angry reaction is out of the way, here's my general thoughts. Two-year contracts will only work with a firm structure in place. Right now there's not even a frame of good structure in place to regulate the NIL world. I'm leaning toward regulating the agents first and foremost and that c...

The last time I sat down and watched a SoCon vs. SoCon matchup in football or basketball was 2012, but no shame in others yearning for the small privates. I love college basketball In general so I still follow the so con. It’s the best mid major conference tournament year in and year out imo. Growi...

Give credit to the So. Con, the attendance recorded was over 6,000. Not sure if tickets sold versus actual fannies on seats. Impressive It looked packed on tv with each school’s fans. They put a graphic that furman etsu were both roughly 60 miles from Asheville. I hope the sun belt stays in Pensaco...

Honestly asking, why do we care? I'm watching the SoCon tourney... Did I wake up in 2011… who cares about the SoCon tournament. I was in Asheville most of the weekend and wondered why all the busses were around and then realized that UNCG’s team was in our hotel. Then remembered the wrestling tourn...
