Let's beat a dead horse

[appstatealum]

Yeah, why let facts cloud the issue.

App is funded on a per student level less than that of UNC Asheville last I checked.

That is a fact. UNCA is an odd exception, not counting the HBUs.

I just looked. App is funded less than any other public university in the state. Thanks baby blue!

But it happens to every school so we should be ok with it since the blue wearing bastards play basketball well!

If this doesn't finalize the reason for the hatred (remember, not everyone gives a shit about UNC basketball), nothing will and your blind by that blue.

Hope the bus door doesn't hit you in the ass when you jump off that bandwagon.

We don't always agree on things, but damn if we aren't 100% on the same page with all this. Makes me sick. I work in a large "networking" related field out of Charlotte and the "aren't you cute" smugness from other NC/SC university alums towards App is exhausting.

So is the "dead horse" anything about Carolina? Has reached 6 pages. That's hilarious.

I truly didn't expect it to go that far- but atleast I know that I'm not the only one who gets my blood boiled over it. Haha

I have some concerns that some of my friends that attended the Eric Church concert last night may now be suffering from brain damage. Please have them in your thoughts and prayers.

My brother went. He knows my disdain for Church and still asked me for a hookup on tickets (career related), thinking I'd even entertain the thought. He proceeded to send me snaps from the show to piss me off. Although, he did say he was going to wear the App State hat I gave him a few years ago

Man, it seems like it was just only 2 weeks ago that UNC was ranked #10 in the country…

So help me understand. We need a law & med school to be successful in football? Didn’t realize we were missing on recruits because they wanted to be doctors. Doesn’t seem to have help Carolina become a powerhouse in football though? What am I missing?

No, that is where the hatred stems from. UNC holier than thou attitude. Literally making it impossible for anybody but them to succeed at a higher rate academically.

Which, in turn does impact athletics because of size of donations. Who has more disposable income? A teacher or an anesthesiologist? It's not close and you know it.

So UNC football has been more successful cause they have more anesthesiologist donating and going to games, Is that right?

And on a more serious note, does it make those of us any less of App state football/basketball (any sports) fan is we don't get so emotional, irate, and upset over the academic side of things that we have absolutely zero control over? That doesn't even come close to impacting the majority of us?

DUDE>>>>Absolutely it makes you less of a fan. This is serious. Change happens only when enough people care. We should have more programs and we or at least the western side of the state decide on the programs. I am truly excited about bringing in Hickory. This was brilliant. It will make a huge difference. We need the political capacity to make changes. Hickory and surrounding getting on board with App will be an impactful change.

It is funny the media guide lists him as an alum....I did not think he ever earned his degree?

Per multiple articles, Church graduated in 2000 with a Business Degree

ECU won the right to have start their school of medicine because Leo Jenkins had

• A vision to bring better healthcare to impoverished rural counties in eastern NC, and

• Dogged determination to make his vision become a reality, regardless of the opposition

Having a school of medicine is a VERY big deal, and could benefit App in many ways.
Western NC is mostly rural and has some of the poorest counties in the state.
But who would spearhead an initiative to bring a school of medicine to Boone?

Meanwhile Luke never officially graduated (left for Nashville a semester or two short), and is App State through and through.

Raise your kids to be like Luke.

I had a marketing class with him. He smelled bad and nobody liked him.

I feel it is my duty to inform as many people as possible that, by definition, you don’t need to have graduated from a school to be considered an alumn. You just have to have been enrolled.

If that's the case I am an alum of 6 community colleges.

It also means, unfortunately, my wife is a Georgia Southern alum. She took an online summer class through GASO so she could graduate a semester early.

Those are the type of things that you take to the grave with you and never share with anyone, EVER! I will pretend I didn't read it and feel free to delete that post, it does no good to anyone.

Meh. She doesn’t read this board, y’all don’t know her, and she’s worth that one major flaw.
