The moment we start owning the highlights and not allowing players to use them for their socials is the moment we lose any chance of winning recruiting battles with current peers...

Not everyone that transfers is “chasing money.” Situations aren’t always what they appear.

I love it. It could possibly stand up in court, if we had our players sign it when they sign their contract. All video of you in AppState uniform is owned by AppState. Of course we probably sign that right over to ESPN.
We would probably sign it over to Nike, who would sign it over to ESPN.
I believe IMG may be 1st in line…

Just saw on footballscoop.com that GM Thomas Guerry is not returning to the program. A little shocking as he seemed to do a great job for us, and really held the class together during the coaching change. DLO sang his praises a few times.

Anybody got the scoop?

Loggains likely has people in mind and with a new director they will likely make even more changes. We have complained about recruiting on here so no shock that Loggains feels we need a change as well.

Nothing like firing the 30 year old General Manager after he kept the roster and portal intact before his contract was up for renewal today.

This is the plan that DG had to steady the ship through the transition and DL carried out leading this employee on as if he would have a future job.

Users are going to Use.

I see DG and the good ole boys got their way with Heather staying in charge, therefore they can continue to run amuck the debt and other garbage on Jack Branch. No accountability at the top whatsoever. That place needs an Elliott Ness or J. Edgar Hoover type to come in and clean house.

The budget is in a much better spot than it was before DG took over. We actually have a slush fund and can afford insurance now -- which saved our ass with Helene. Your savior Roachel Laney said we weren't big enough for insurance and could never get there.

Can't say anything about accountability within the department overall, but in my minimal interactions with DG, he has been very accountable and admits to making mistakes; nobody is perfect.

The budget should be Bigger now, because the school has grown the student body, alumni base, etc etc. That has to do with population not who the AD is. Population drives Donations/Budgets.

Ask DG about the DEBT. Never mind he wouldn't give you an honest answer anyway.

And Roachel is Not my savior, that would be Brigham Young, but Roachel wasn't wrong.

I think we had a couple others who could have done that but Loggains did not use him. Just like in the NFL when it comes to the DPP, GM, scouting/recruiting folks, etc you know that when a regime leader is gone that those roles will see turnover. I figured he would be looking for a job the minute Clark was let go the odds he is going to be replaced are high. I was always skeptical of Guerry because he spent a lot of time at the P5 level but came down to App for a supposedly lateral move for what was not big money. I always figured he was going to be let go and we were a good landing spot for him. I want to see who Loggains hires because we have real opportunity to upgrade those departments. I expect at least 1-2 more people in that area to be let go as well.

It is interesting you say that about good ole boys staying in charge because Gillin and others felt like Jack Branch had become the good ole boy network and our reputation had gone down. I was told we were cleaning all that out. Loggains is making these moves and he has the right as the new head coach.

Why don't you like Heather? She will be really good. Also, Gillin is trying to make moves behind the scenes because more realignment is coming.

Roachel was wrong about the most important thing. He said we could never be I-A/FBS and he was wrong. We are in much better shape financially than we ever were with Roachel.

Not even sure why I’m responding, you are clearly just hanging around hoping DLO fails so you can come on here and act like an asshole saying “Told you so.” Actively rooting for the program that you claim to love, to fail is….something.

I got news for you, everyone is coaching uses each other in one way or another.

DLO is the head coach, like it or not. As the head coach he is entitled to have his people around him. He would have been an idiot to let everyone go, and not keep some folks around through the transition. This happens in all industries, not just coaching.

Give it a rest. The act is tired and boring. Shawn has moved on, and we wish him nothing but the best…why can’t you move on?

Imagine living through the Laney era and believing he was a better AD than Doug.

The worst attempt at gas lighting from DOTE yet and that is quite an accomplishment.

Laney would have been an average HS AD.

Well that explains it. You should watch American Primeval on Netflix and then research Brigham Young more. May not be your savior for long.

To DOTE you said and I quote: "The budget should be Bigger now, because the school has grown the student body, alumni base, etc etc. That has to do with population not who the AD is. Population drives Donations/Budgets."

We now have around 150,000+ alumni. The student body has grown which in turn has increased the alumni base. That much is true. Population drives Donations/Budgets and if this in fact is true then why does the Yosef Club just now in the past 2 years fully funded scholarships? Why doesn't even half of this alumni base (population) give to the Yosef Club? Budgetary reasons? I'm on a retiree fixed income and budget. Giving with a monthly draft is not stressful or painful.

150,000/2 = 75,000
75,000 x $20 x 12 months = $18,000,000

I would normally not respond to your drivel or DG character bashing but this time I'm not staying silent. As for "DG and the good ole boys got their way with Heather staying in charge" she was by far the best candidate and in fact I perceive her to be comparable to Dr. Peacock.
We don't slide at Appalachian State. It's a sign of weakness.
