Re: Preseason Projections

As much angst and hand-wringing as there is about this season under Loggains, I guarantee it’s far less than we would’ve experienced if SC was still in charge. And speaking of SC…as much flak as Everts caught from folks on this board (me included), she saw the writing on the wall before most of us ...

Re: QB1 battle?

This post conjures an interesting scenario. Given the chance, will Loggains be the type of coach to take the foot off the throat or apply more pressure. The algebra in CFB has changed so that margin of victory matters...Loggains being a new HC has to see that so I hope he doesn't let up...Remember ...

Re: QB1 battle?

App State -8.5 vs Charlotte Just saying. They need to change it to -28!! We got a great QB1 and QB2 and our WRs overall will be the best in the Sunbelt. Oh...we got great RBs too. The "D"???? who knows. If the defense can play well, we beat them like a drum. Just my opinion and how I feel. I'll tak...

Re: House of Reps bill on NCAA issues

When is the last time the NCAA “cracked down” on a school or athletic program? Long time. The stuff schools and programs used to get in trouble for seem long gone. If a booster flat out hands a star football player an envelope of cash does anything even remotely happen? Is the term student/athlete ...

Re: Staff Reductions Coming To ADs

Honestly, what is there to disagree with? My post was not an opinion; it is a fact. The Supreme Court is tasked with interpreting the law for our country, when they say something is unlawful (broken) then it is. You can disagree with the ruling, but it is still the final say on the law. In this cas...

Re: Staff Reductions Coming To ADs

The Supreme Court actually said it was broke, in a unanimous decision. Like it or not, in our country that means that it was broke. We will just have to disagree on that one.

Re: Staff Reductions Coming To ADs

I'm with you, but students are given a choice. They CHOSE to go to App where they have to pay an athletics fee. They signed the paper that said that was part of their tuition. They did choose it. But, the other parts, 100% in agreement. But, did you see the uproar when we did cut some programs? It'...

Re: Staff Reductions Coming To ADs

The solution is to cut athletics, but no one wants to say that part out loud. Instead, they want to keep pretending that there is some way to run a department and pay a staff all while bringing in significantly less than we spend, and there is, on the backs of donors who have been told to shut up a...

A win is a win a loss is a loss regardless of who it is. The reason we have percentages is to compare things that cannot be compared directly. Besides list like this are to motivate action and give us something to discuss to distract us from solving the real problems of the world. If that is true s...

Re: Staff Reductions Coming To ADs

Can you provide a link with those exact numbers? I am not an App football only supporter. I do think football, basketball, and baseball should drive most decisions but it is good to have other sports for more athletes. Those happen to be my 3 favorite sports but they are the money sports. They shou...

Statistically, we belong in the CFP as much as anyone else if not more.
Honest question. How so?
We are the only team not in the CFP that has triple digit wins.
What is the difference between G5 wins and P4 wins. Should we get in when playing G5 all year over someone playing P4 all year?

Re: Staff Reductions Coming To ADs

When you talk about Irene I am curious how old is she? She might fund a sport now but when she dies will her children still do it? If you are depending on one person and the sport does not generate revenue through tickets, merchandise, TV revenue, etc then at some point that sport will be a drain u...

Re: Staff Reductions Coming To ADs

It's my understanding that the golf program does get a lot of non-university funding. It does. Those vans and last seasons trip to Stanford for a tournament were funded by a donor. It is a booster who loves golf and basically keeps the program afloat because they love it, right? It is not because t...
