43-32 Apps, 16 to go. Looking good so far, Canty is having his way again.

Apps find a way to lose another one. Sad, very, very sad.

Capel is sad - a sad excuse for a coach.

Found a way to blow a 10 point lead at the half and screw the pooch down the stretch...Fire Capel.

Did anyone at the game see Cobb on the sideline, texting?

70-64 final

This just in: we can't close. Healy blocked a shot, WCU inbounds with 3 seconds on the shot clock. We promptly give up an uncontested 3, game over.

1-7, still without a DI win. We are in bad shape.

I wonder if the state of App basketball isn't doing irreparable harm to the quest to move up. I realize the realignment process is focused on football, but damn, our basketball program is h-o-r-r-e-n-d-o-u-s and certainly not doing us any favors by offering nothing in the sporting realm from November to March.

Not only is UNCC stealing out football recruits, they're basketball team moved to 9-0 on the year. They're serious down there. It's time for Appalachian to be the same.

No, he will offer Jerry the B Ball Head Coaching job.

Not until he conducts another "national search".

We've got two shots at getting a division 1 win before the new year. First is UMKC (4-5;3-5 D1) on the road seems unlikely, but not out of the question. Next is Presbyterian who is still searching for a D1 win and is getting blown out in most games. You'd thin that might be a gimmie, but they might be coming hard for us thinking its their best real shot at a D1 win.

Remember the last decade when there used to be arguments over whether we should fire our coach and there were a fair amount of people on each side . . . Its hard to believe how much we miss those days.

Now that is a great compromise. Jerry gets one Moore year and everyone lives up to the football agreement of a new coach for 2013.

He was offered a three year, six figure position at the University, maybe that was it. :lol:

App had a 13 point 2nd half lead and lost it. Worst free throw attempt in history by App player. Our announcers were stunned.

SoCon hoops is a joke, and we are the punch line, but there are plenty of laughs to go around. Mens Bball is definately hurting our cause. I am a die hard, but they have become irrelevant even to me. I could NEVER have imagined I would ever say that!! :cry:

At least Okam has a 3.94 GPA.
