You're always good for a laugh.

At the end of the day JP was higher on Apps board and got our guy. Sounds like both parties are happy with their situation, let me know when UTC beats us out for another player.

Josh, Ark St. is likely the best team App has faced in the last two years (maybe GS this year) so I certainly don't expect a win on the road. You obviously have watched the games so you can see how...

I called this two years ago. Increased FBS scholarships will hurt surrounding FCS programs, one reason I was for the move. App redshirted their first FBS class and has started to turn the corner,...

About like I expected, got down early, couldn't contain their 6'5"WR/TE and lots of missed assignments by our young secondary in rush defense. We did learn that we have some good young talent,...

Good luck scheduling in the future Citadel.

The blocks are within the rules, but perhaps the rules need to be adjusted. Rules evolve over time, and this may be just the catalyst to do so.

Dave, so no insight into Lamb?

Dave many fans are already talking making Lamb the starter. I think he looks good for a r FR. But it may be too early based of the competition to date. Thoughts or thoughts for those around you...

Both have 12 SoCon football championships, looks like a tie to me. As for most overall SoCon championships, no one came close to App during our tenure.
...

Our leaders wanted to and were willing to pay for the TV coverage, the majority of the school's ADs did not. However the commish and their staff are responsible for seeking out deals and solutions...

I bash SoCon leadership, big difference.

Have fun guys.

I was here from the start and even older boards. I've forgotten more quality 1-AA football/FCS moments than Citadel will ever see.

Classy as always.

The Sun Belt has been very professional thanking outgoing members and welcoming new ones. You can argue which conference is better, RPI would indicate one over the other. But...

ECU, the flagship? Houston, SMU, Tulsa, etc.

The reality App views athletics as an avenue to market the university. The SoCon no longer provided that, from my perspective the SoCon leadership is a big reason for that.

No one is asking the...

App fans were harsh on the SoCon the last few years. I have been very critical of the SoCon leadership, especially their handling of the TV deal (or lack thereof).

However App's administration...

CUSA did something pretty classy by thanking ECU and others that are leaving for the memorable games and the time they spent there. Wonder if we'll see anything from the SoCon in regards to App, DC,...

Smallfootball, that's just citdog's thing. He knows everything you said above to be true, he's just having fun.

You did crack me up when you mentioned Citadel and winning titles in the same...

I disagree. No team outside of the top 12 has ever won the 1-AA/FCS championship, a fact that I used for years of why the playoff field should stay at 16. Now that the field is 24 there is no...

Not sure it makes it any less relevant, but one thing I liked about the FCS championship was that it was the highest level of football that earned its title on the field. With a playoff at the...

You should be ashamed it take OT to beat one of the worst App teams in 40 years. Also the worst basketball team in my lifetime beat Citadel last year. Geez.

2-1 vs. Citadel in 2014. Let me guess all-time records only count in baseball right?

Over 140 SoCon Championships for App, spin that anyway you'd like, the result is we were the best overall athletic department during our SoCon era.

Yes we have challenges ahead of us as the SBC's...

Our face to face conversation in Montana last August says otherwise.

All five looked at what the SoCon had to offer and made a move they thought was best for them. Two stabbed the SoCon while looking them in the eye, two snuck out the back and no one cared, and one...
