Just head up on game day. He will find a ticket.

Many have asked me about certain players, so I figured I would give MY personal depth chart projection. A lot of it is based on knowledge, but some of it based on MY opinion. This is not meant to be a bible and as we all know, these things will change throughout the year. The most fluctuations will...

Good bit of App State representation last night in the Panthers game The TV broadcast said Marshall was a Wake guy. I did not watch it live but did they really? I saw online he was credited to App State. Seeing how good he looks make me wonder what his numbers would have been had the staff put him ...

Good bit of App State representation last night in the Panthers game

The TV broadcast said Marshall was a Wake guy.

Nobody knows anything about this team at this point. Heck, we don't even know who are going to be our starters. On paper, we picked up a lot of good talent but that talent was very thin on experience so nobody really has any basis to judge at this point. I hope we don't finish 5-7 but honestly I ha...

So my original question still hasn’t gotten a direct answer but it looks like the answer is no, sports at App do not generate a profit. And thus there is no money to pay players. So at least at Apps level the whole players are being taken advantage of argument is a fallacy.

This question has been asked numerous times but I don’t think I’ve ever seen an answer. Where is the money going to come from for App. to pay athletes? Does App. actually generate a profit from sports programs ?

What sux to me is that he sees “no value” in playing an in state team that can compete. When do the people of NC start to matter in this equation? Every time we play an in state FBS team the people of NC prove, with their presence, that the game has value to them. The actual people who foot the bill...

It’s revenue sharing , schools paying players now . NIL , with the exception of some national market super stars and a few big regional big markets, isn’t where the money comes from to pay these ummm student athletes. I really don’t think NIL will be the thing that kills G5 football. Yes G5 program...

We should never underestimate the importance of chemistry in team sports. The lack of personnel continuity from season to season and shifting player attitudes related to financial gain will make it even more challenging to sustain team chemistry on/off the field over time. And there is a strong cor...

I see one of two things happening. Either it’s rebuild every year with very little player development or something is done to limit the transfer portal. The current portal situation will be a wrecking ball to any and all top tier G5 teams.

It seems that App is going for broke this season. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_for_Br ... 51_film%29

Under the current situation, transfer portal, I think you have to go for broke every season. I don’t really see a way to build a team that will last for more than one season.

Trying not to make this a political statement as I favor neither, but I fear any action by this administration. This administration seems to favor a handgrenade over a firecracker. What we really need is for college presidents to grow a pair.

Their pair has been purchased.

The “jump man” brand seems kind of tied to the Tarholes to me. I do however like Jordan himself, but in general not a fan of Nike.

Before we all get too cocky let’s remember that WCU gave NCSU a pretty good game last year. And also that an in state ACC played them. We are 1 and 3 over the last few years against ACC teams. And boy was the last one something I want to forget.

If we had more stability on the lines I'd feel pretty good about this team's talent level. Just too much uncertainty there. That’s something I’ve been thinking about, both lines. Should G5 teams develop a strategy that’s puts their limited resources into building and retaining both lines? My opinio...

So it sounds like most of you so far think a coach can still build a team over several years.i sure hope so.

Is there another portal opening before the season starts?
