I kind of compare my view of App football in the same way as Panthers football. My expectations for both are to win the NC and the Super Bowl. My realistic view is that either final game is generally unlikely. If that doesn’t happen I want both/either team to make a playoff. If that doesn’t occur t...

Tradition is made by the fans. Culture is made by all involved. Those two aren't mutually exclusive to the players and coaches. If they were, then all those pro teams would have nothing. If we want tradition, then make it ourselves as fans, stop waiting on ADs to tell you what tradition is. If you ...

Wash cloth. Grew up in Avery county.

At least someone is attempting use common sense. Imagine someone told you if you wanted to switch jobs you would have to sit out a year first. Imagine a group of people who are about free market pushing a law that limits the abilities of the labor to earn more money. Imagine a group of people who b...

I'm not so sure..

My daughter just got a full ride to UNC.....She for a long time planned to attend App. One day she looked at me and said "Everyone gets in App...they have a 90% acceptance rate" I didn't believe her. I looked it up. She was right. The UNC system has pushed us back down by making us take so many stu...

When did our selectivity decrease so much much? 85% or so applicants are admitted? Maybe that reflects lots of applicants who can get accepted to other schools and never attend App if they get into other first choice schools. Or has an increased enrollment push decreased our selectivity? I think th...

I find it odd that I don't care if it happens, but 5-6 years ago I would have felt much differently.

Many App State fans feel much like he does. Get over it.

I always respected what ASU66 brought to the online community. RIP Chuck.

That would mean the Athletic Department would actually have to spend minimal dollars on the fan experience at the games. It would also involve some marketing, which for basketball is pretty much nonexistent. They did just give 500 jersey away. I thought it was 200 jerseys but might have been 500. I...

He soiled himself. I feel bad for Vrabel.

DL's buyout is about as fully funded today as the East Tower has been for the last three years.

This is dudes shooting their mouths off around a tailgate or hotel bar.

Pulling for him and the staff this year, just like every other coach before him.

I agree with all of the above.

It’s the plan, but I don't have faith in Gillin to execute said plan. He couldn’t get us into the AAC when the opportunity came up. Staying in the Sun belt long term is a financially terrible decision. As far as this expansion, it’s a strong no for me as well. Gillin proves time and time again that...

I imagine one has to be a member as well. SP is based in Boone, but they also have operations in Wilkes County it seems and their airplanes are based at PTI. They may not want to join any of them to save on money in joining for not much benefit or they do not want to join one and ignore the other t...

Not a single G5 program listed and they specifically use the term FBS. Not FCS wins. Also, we are 46th in the second link you posted. I see that now. I was thinking that 16th in all time winning percentage was the same in all time wins. However, had we started playing when those teams listed starte...

Forgive my ignorance, I haven't lived in Boone for over 20 years, and while I make it to town as often as I can, I don't know Boone today like a local would. My question is this: are there enough "large businesses" in Boone to make this an actual award? I assume the way the press release is written...

Football facilities probably shouldn’t see another dime until Basketball and baseball get renovations and softball/track are 100% completed. The Holmes Center should be the next major project. The biggest upgrades in 25 years were a center-hanging scoreboard and separate offices for MBB and WBB, wh...

Agreed, some place locations just cannot make it. Another one that perplexes me in that a restaurant cannot consistently make it there.. the old Hardee's by the Holmes Center... Great location next to campus. The Hardee’s near Holmes is actually being redeveloped. True, but that's kind of the point...
