Some if not most on this board won’t like this at all but it’s my experience. My daughter started at App and graduated from UNCC. Her experience at App was less than stellar. Her experience at UNCC was very good. App. seemed focused on social engineering and UNCC was focused on the course work. Jus...

I hope we get a good one..but IF it’s a too far left or too far right leaning one I hope the student body and faculty en masse walks out. Wouldn’t that be something? Give the big ole finger to the legislature. If it’s far left, the faculty will celebrate and some alumni as well. Not this alum. Woul...

This may be an attempt by UNCC to get into a, "Better Conference".

Look! Grass Seats, part of our culture...

Blue Hose pipeline worked for the men.

How can a hose have a pipeline? Would it not be a hoseline instead?

No, it would be a hosepipe.

JMU is adding varsity lacrosse, in the ACC.

The next ACC school: JMU. Why didn't ECU think of that?

I would never ever send my kids to a college that underhandidly funneled my money to pay athletes salaries. If someone wants to throw their money away in NIL then more power to them, but if a college ever started funneling student fees to pay athlete salaries I hope they get sued into oblivion and ...

March Sadness.

That is what it really is, "March Sadness." Quick, coin the term now.

Good luck proving the tampering. Yes they get free education but that isn’t going to make life easier in all cases. Xaxion Brown is from California. He literally has no one from his family attend his games. He probably hasn’t seen his family since June. I don’t care what kind of scholarship and per...

Yeah, this game is over.

I don’t know what it is about wakes coach, but you just want to punch him. That Bruce arians looking SOB.

He coached at ETSU.

UVA - Lowest NET at-large - 54 Indiana St - highest NET left out - 29 The fact that Virginia made the tournament is a complete joke. That team is asssss. GO APPS!! Like I said that Virginia team was asssss. It’s a shame they had to waste a spot on them when there were PLENTY of other deserving team...

Watching Auburn/Florida this afternoon, I got a chuckle out of the SEC's slogan "It's about more than W's & L's" which was plastered all over the arena for the tournament. If it weren't for the money sports and the national exposure they provide, would many institutions possess the national recogni...

There's plenty of room to put a third deck over the existing concessions and bathrooms. Might be better to offer a moderate option. Put a roof over the third level with stadium seats (Like the Packers did at Lambeau) and price those between the exposed seats and the premium. Hopefully the demand is...

And that's the point. Athletics and academics should have never been this intertwined. We are charging students 2k+ over 4 years for something they don't use without giving anyone an opt out choice. I think that athletics and academics are more intertwined than anyone would like to admit. When App ...

Look at it this way, those fees are what allows the students to attend all of the games in all the sports. Without those fees the students would not attend all that many games. From an individual ticket price to all the events students can get into, that is a bargain. I'm not saying do away with th...

https://www.al.com/alabamafootball/2024/03/goodman-nick-saban-is-the-new-face-of-an-old-scam.html Interesting that the SEC is troubled by the fact the BIG has more money and can buy the best team. Serves’em all right. We’ve, G5, been fighting that fight for years. Shoes’ on the other foot. LOL If t...

I was curious when exactly they started to rise. The fact it did rise and with all we did is why I hope we can retain Kerns. I would love to see what we would do next year with most of the team back along with the coaches and some of these newcomers they have signed/committed. Really hope Huntley c...

I simply can't believe that a majority of these athletes who multiple transfer are managing the academic side. Are schools really admitting them legitimately? Side note. My son is at App and told me a significant football player is in one of his classes and according to my son this player never has...
