Portal isn't about just bringing starters in.... Gotta have backups as well. While some may look like "projects", gotta have bodies.

From what we all saw of our OL this season, I would say starters are the priority there. At least to my eyes it should be.

Burris was all conference. And once again, we hope Poindexter can return. Yes he was, but I am skeptical and not getting overly excited about a Second Team All-Conference DII player in the South Atlantic Conference. The South Atlantic produces such powerhouses as Newberry, Carson-Newman, Catawba, M...

3 OT transfers, 2 from P4 and 1 3 star from Anderson. Did that OL from Marshall commit anywhere, yet?

All 3 sound like projects to me, none have really played.

“Wilson missed 2 free throws earlier and got the crowd free Chick Filament sandwiches”

If that’s a regular promo for them, I bet the franchise was sweating this game wondering if they would have enough supply. Not enough chicken in Boone for that promotion with us as a home team.

FWIW, VMI isnt traditionally very good, so I would imagine there would be some pins to make it a little quicker, but yeah t4 gives a pretty good estimate I know and I was thinking of more pins which would be fun to see. Hopefully wrestling can have a crowd with MBB also at home. Wrestling always ha...

The timing somewhat depends on the individual matches. There are 10 weight classes and a maximum 7 minutes each match (unless overtime which is rare). If there are a lot of pins it goes much faster. They take a brief intermission after 5 matches. I would plan on 1.5 hours at the maximum. It’s a hell...

In addition to a big payout, Gamble can look forward to enjoying the many charms afforded by Greenville/ECU: heat, humidity, mosquitoes, clouds of gnats, crime and nonexistent academic standards.

Sounds a lot like Georgia Southern.

The upside to a spring game is we can’t lose.

We’d find a way.

I thought the same exact thing.

We just thought we had good offense weapons last year and ended up with not much. So I'll not get my hopes up too much. Especially with the lack of OL/DL currently. I couldn't agree more. To me the trenches are everything. Good lines can make other players appear otherworldly when they are just ave...

FCS playoff TV ratings minus the champ game as I doubt its published yet. One thing to keep in mind with sports numbers. How many of these are bars that try to put every game up somewhere thats on TV. Gotta love that 400k for a semi final game. https://herosports.com/fcs-football-tv-viewership-rati...

Former App State DL Rondo Porter has committed to Rutgers Ooof :lol: That NIL better be real nice for me to go to freaking Rutgers and live in New Jersey :lol: I’m assuming NIL funds are taxed. No way am I going somewhere like NJ, NY, CA, etc where they are going to tax half of my pay. Depends on w...

There is still some time left for YSU qb…. the kid is a beast, 3200 passing with 26 tds and 3 ints. ….. also 1400 yds rushing. He’s not the size DLO prefers 6’0 215…… but the kid is crazy productive. I’d go all in. He’s not in the portal. You can’t go all in on someone not wanting to leave their cu...

Completely forgot the game was even on so I didn't see a single minute of it.

Wilson is a scholarship player. D2 comment is realistic if he wants to see the field. I’m not in the business of babying people, including you. Hahah. Yeah you are allll man. Tell Dexter his son is a D2 player at best. The shilling You do for this Haven’t accomplished a thing Coach is epic. Or mayb...

Another walkon. Maybe he just wants playing time in D2? “Legacy” doesn’t get you in the lineup anymore. Wilson seemed to not be terrible and he didn’t sniff the field all season. I have No idea if coakley is good enough to get playing time but trash talking the kid of the best player to ever play f...

I’m not sure I buy the idea that DL is a bad play caller. My issue is with our QB play. In my 25+ years watching App St football, that was the worst QB room we’ve had, relative to our competition. It was a huge red flag we didn’t have a starter named/known until the first snap of the season. For th...

Dexter Coakley’s son Zahn is in the portal

That hurts my soul, as it should for all Mountaineers.

But, are these disgruntled parents as little Johnny did not get playing time, certain number of catches, etc. I only know what I viewed on TV. 60+ players showed up and appeared to give their all for 60 minutes. And how many didn't show up? Everyone for Ga Southern was there, we were down almost 30...
