As previously stated be careful with your tax deductions especially when it comes to large $$s. The tax law changed several years before NIL and the collectives when you couldn’t claim all of your annual contribution to the YC if you received something of value in return. Now it’s even more complica...

Let’s have some class and stop the bad language, etc. College football is a family gathering for many and everyone needs to realize what is out of bounds behavior. I took my kids at a young age to games and never had a negative experience and now my grandkids shouldn’t be exposed to the current atmo...

The lady in the hadicap seating who got hit didn't think it was so funny.

Talk about a lawsuit! Oftentimes snowballs end up hard as ice and students aren’t always using their best judgment on game days. Not being soft but using common sense.

At the end of the day, I really feel bad for Shawn. The amount of stress he's feeling must be off the charts. I hope the team makes a turn around, wins 3 more games to include a bowl. If he returns next season, I truly hope that it is "the season" and he succeeds. At the end of the day, what's goin...

In the state of N.C. we have 7 FBS and 7 FCS programs plus several in D11 which means spreading money for athletics across many fan bases. Times have changed with the transfer portal, NIL and the collectives making managing football rosters a 24/7 endeavor. Money makes a bigger difference now in col...

Is the last two to three weeks' discussion the most negative of all the threads on this Forum or the old Delphi Forum in memory. IMOP, it came close back in the days when most posters wanted JM to step down or Laney to be fired. But these few weeks have topped them all. Just my opinion. Want to kno...

I am curious what folks on YC think SBC should do. Chips are going to fall with even more realignment. It is a possibility that ACC is next...and down to P3.. Personally, I would like to see SBC add fours teams..two to East and two to west...so each side does not play each other until championship ...

Not the case. Curcio wanted to be a lifer. The explanation alumni have been told is the current director of track and field wants his own people, so Curcio was pushed out. Unfortunately for Appalachian to have a person like Coach leave after a dominant CC program he has been a significant part of f...

Old school and inefficient yes. I have been getting the Charlotte Observer and Hickory Daily Record for decades. Rain, sleet, snow, they were always on my driveway. Recently received word that HDR is going to 3 days a week and both are discontinuing delivery. It's USPS from mid June on. I am not ex...

No, I get it, it's just frustrating. Wish I was rich. My own fault as I decided(called) to go into education. I love App, but family comes 1st. I can make it work now, but at the end of the day if it comes down to a decision in the future, family wins as App tickets are a luxury. I am a retired edu...

If I were putting money on someone without choices I would say Frank Ponce.

Spot on prediction. Why is Ponce someone without choices? Explain

Anyone else hear that Ark. St. has now been held under 20 points in the last 2 years (2018, 2019, & 2020) by three teams: Georgia, Alabama, and App. State (last nite & in 2019). Pierre Banks & crew mentioned it in the post game show. Cool stuff. App's D is top notch, and it shows. You are correct, ...

Face the inevitable, no conference championship game :( and maybe the season is over in a month from now.. Health and safety issues will rule over all App sports completing their seasons. App gave it the ol’ college try; however, having students on campus for in person classes was not the best decis...

Just wondering if losing their starting QB played any into this? Charlotte was going to get a much needed check for around 400 thousand dollars...I'm sure this decision was based on tests (or a test) coming back positive. Maybe they are bummed about not having their QB but that is how things go and...

I am ready to go to Raleigh about outdoor venues like football games. All the schools in the state need to rally fans . Ok in other states why not here? Getting REAL obvious! Have you forgotten some states don’t have football? We need to appreciate what we do have. Attendance with limited capacity ...

I still think common sense will prevail and we play. Maybe common sense prevails and we don’t play! Better to not start than have to stop in mid-season. Nothing accomplished but players and staffs put at risk. Do we place our desires over the health of others? COVID-19 isn’t disappearing in 2020 an...

Will be fortunate to play one or two games. With students coming in next week and classes beginning the following week there’s enough time for COVID-19 to spread across campus by early September. I don’t foresee 18+ age college students wearing masks and social distancing. It’s a herd mentality, can...

Lottery for students, no additional costs - 4000 per game... 1500 in West Side Lower level, 1500 in East Side Lower level, 1000 on regraded Miller Hill. 5000 for season ticket holders....requires at least $1000 donation to Yosef club this year... seats sold at face value. 500 seats in North End Zon...

How is Spring football going to happen if a second wave comes in late autumn/winter? Maybe if a miracle happens such as a safe and available vaccine being mass produced or the virus substantially weakens and no second wave transpires. Players will need to begin practice in February and games start i...

Both are very good qbs but Howell definitely gets the nod in a 1-1 comparison. Thomas has significant practice and game experience over Howell so give Howell at least another year for a better assessment. They may be seriously talking the Heisman for Howell in 2021 and/or 2022.
