Look they’re never going to get past spelling that with a ‘k’.

For God’s sake. This can hardly get any worse for me. Well he will find himself in one of the absolute worst programs and athletic departments in the country. If he gets to play, Virginia Tech will probably send him to his grave at the end of the season.

Marshall is also a victim, not one to be punished. And this couldn’t be solved by legislation in a thousand years. Besides, the legislators are mostly owned by bigger money programs that are best served by the current situation. So it wouldn’t be solved by that. I don’t see a good future for this as an industry.

Some of us just take a little longer to complete our studies than others.

Doesn't matter. Half those players will be gone when the Band Transfer Portal opens up.

I am doubting E Carolina and Santonio have more money for this than we do. We should be able to beat those teams. Had we done so, we wouldn’t be having any of these conversations.

This is the reality now, for every team. Re-recruiting for transfers at positions every year. The staffs that are good at it will succeed. We just need people who are better at it than others at our level. It is a challenge, but also an opportunity. It can never be used as an excuse, cause every team faces it.

It is quite a sad commentary that several on here are only willing to go to a bowl if it's a short drive. That is exactly the level of commitment that has us NOT going to a desirable winter destination for a bowl. I want to blame leadership for going along with this 'Dinner For Schmucks' situation, but maybe they ARE just playing the cards they're dealt.

He's gonna miss the mountains.

If the irony of playing someone other than $mu in their stadium at this time is lost on you, then you are still in the Matrix.

It’s the kind of hire we’ve done once in basketball - with great results - but have never managed in football.

It won’t feel so homey when you are outnumbered by Bobcats 3 to 1. I have a sense they have done more to build school spirit in their general population.

And we should call Sammy and SFA and see if we can get the band back together. 🤪

We’ve come so far.

Charlotte hired Ohio’s coach. Serious move.

They were, before that pillow fight tonight and Army's dominating win and now overall better success.

Isn't it more of a question whether Clemson gets in over the Army?

Getting missed good players from lesser programs and conferences is the only way to win now.

Riley put his life on the line for NT and gave it all he had. Todd was just not a good college coach.

Don't they know? HE'S A MAAAANN!!!

A case study in eternal ineptitude in the face of - and partly because of - extraordinary political challenges, versus a bizarre institution where money IS the religion. Whatever we got paid to go to their little palace in that dump town, it wasn't enough.

I know some Appalachian fans. They have absolutely no tolerance or patience for the embarrassing season they experienced this year.

Rest assured SMU will ‘win’. It’s the only way an ACC team will get in. Hopefully even so they’ll get the ‘ACC treatment’ that Florida State got last year, followed by a similar season as this year’s FSU next year.

We should go on those teams' boards regularly to declare our superiority, but what kind of person would actually do that???

SMU has conclusively demonstrated that 'power' and 'ACC' do not go together anymore.
