If we were to get selected by June 1st to move up what impact would it have on the '14 season? Do we still have the opportunity for conference championship and possible playoff birth. I thought there was a transition year but didn't know how it worked. Ronnie

You are in the wrong place if you are looking for smart people!

As BYD said, no playoffs. The Big South would decide if we are eligible for conference championships and tournaments in the various sports.

SUM i just figured somebody on here would have a friend who was smart. hahaha I bought a smoker so be prepared for some fresh bbg when you show up this fall. As a fan i would like to see the move up this year, as a dad I vote for the following year. would like to see Nick have the chance to play in the playoffs. However i have a LS/DL in the pipeline for '17 so maybe LU will show him some love and he can play in a bowl game. a man can hope can't he.

No doubt. We lost a lot of good starters and most of them i can say are my friends but i'm not as worried about this up coming season as i thought i would be. i think the new faces on D will be helped by a more experienced O. should be scoring a lot more points this season to cover the extra we may give up. This will only be because of the experience of the new starters not because of their athletic ability i feel good about the guys that will be stepping up. I will start the HOMER prediction early 10-2. UNC we will have to catch to many breaks to keep up with their depth and an overall good team. Depending on how good all the players are that APPY red shirted would be my other possible loss. If we take care of them and i see 11-1. Last year is over but I can recall 2 plays in each of our 4 losses that kept us from being 12-0 last season. Maybe those couple of plays will go our way this year.

We are certainly way overdue for a couple of breaks.

Yea, I said that to my son this week. If we announce FBS by June we will undoubtedly blow up on the field and have a record year. Oh Well. Look at it this way on the young D Sigmo, Nick should be able to go off and have a great year. It will be needed. He and Jacob will be the anchors. And BBQ? Yes Please. haha

I think it's OK, for now. It's more about the softball construction. I'll take a closer look this weekend when I'm over for Baseball.

I'm on the program and trimming a few pounds in anticipation of doing some tailgating this fall with the Sigmon crew. Bring on the BBQ!

Maybe we should re-turf the field in the opposite direction...then the bounces can go our way...

what if we just turned it over and made it a neutral field?

I think our corners this year will have better stats and results than our highly acclaimed corners last year. They were so so good for 80% of the game, and 20% they would have a terrible slip, or mis play the ball , or be in the complete wrong place. Im excited for the new guys to get a chance at DB.

If we hold an FBS invitation, lost playoff chances will be nothing more than a slight regret. Onward & upward!
