Some guys just want to transfer. In order to do that and continue to compete they must enter the portal. Non-athletes transfer every semester, no portal requirement for them though. We don't spend the money and time on the non-athletes that we do on the athletes. I love football and I will still sa...

Prayers for Jacks family, friends and teammates. This awful situation, the horrible events in Charlotte yesterday, the deadly tornadoes in the Midwest and the unrest at our country’s universities. The world is a hard place to be in right now. Be kind to each other and especially the young people in ...

DL and OL are the most over inflated positions in the portal market. Why? Because everyone needs them and they know this and leverage it in negotiations. Getting one isn’t guaranteed quality as that carcass has been picked and cleaned. Is the quality in FCS not good enough for us to pluck or are we...

I f we are going to schedule an FCS in football, I think it should be WCU. They're a former rival plus it helps another school in the UNC system that could certainly use the help. If we lost to them, the board would light up calling for Clark to be fired. And rightly so in that case. I’m really for...

Who do we miss: WCU, Furman, UTC, Elon, Wofford, Samford, Citadel? If you go to any of those venues this fall the answer will be a resounding no one. I would like to play Furman in football about 10 times over the next 20 years. They are the only school that had a winning record against us in the S...

When we left the SCON one of the concerns was a bunch of conference mates that nobody cared about and irrelevant games. I'd say we've gotten past that. Southern is the rival. The rest are hated in-conference foes. And Heather Norris would be a good pick for next Chancellor. I would agree that we ha...

Not this alum. Would love to get a chancellor that continues or even increases support for athletics and frankly keeps politics out of the academic side as much as possible. Amen! Not sure why this has to be so hard! GO APPS!! Academics is politics, if you have ever tried to attain any degree above...

Do we know her political affiliation? In todays academics, if the answer is No, that’s a great start. I do love that she’s been here 20 years, and served under Peacock and Everts. Here’s to hoping she does an amazing job. GO APPS!! Here’s to hoping she’s not a “political” person at all. What we cou...

Why even play the game? We could run simulations based on the statistical inputs and watch virtual reality games. No more NIL too.

Sounds crazy but it’s not going to really shock me to see it happen. People are losing interest in reality.

The Derek Trucks band is one worth seeing if you want to get close to that Allman Bros feeling again.

That would be Tedechie Trucks now. They mix in a cover or two from the Allman Brothers. Fabulous band, and yes you do get that jam band vibe.

I was lucky enough to see him on what I think was his final tour as Great Southern. They did an unforgettable version of Stormy Monday. Always hoped he could reconcile with Greg Allman and play with the Allman Brothers again. But that wish died with Greg’s passing. I hope the guys who are left, Warr...

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...

If it’s far left, the faculty will celebrate and some alumni as well. Not this alum.

Losing the facility at any university in 2020-2024 could be a badge of honor. Let's just say from a thought perspective they aren't a diverse group.

My daughter was at App in 2019. I can tell you your statement is spot on, not much diversity of thought.

I will be all in on this request. Its a lesson I have to learn over and over again but the last 4 or 5 months have been hard for me and the lesson I have learned again is that the one thing this world needs more of is kindness. That doesn’t mean we can’t disagree or debate. But we don’t have to do i...

This may not be PC but I don’t want a Woke Chancellor like Harvard. I do want proper balance between academics and athletics. Students need to feel safe while attending App State and focus on preparing themselves for professional life in the real world. I want a leader that provides all that and do...
