    SC OC is going to be a round peg in a square hole at App State.

    They also knocked off South Carolina when Lumpy was the Gamecocks' coach and they were still FCS. He made every FCS game he ever coached a struggle for survival, even in the 2012 season when he went 11-2, and it bit him more than once, as we know too well.

    So as you can see, you should make the trip to Boone for a big game. (They host ACC schools regularly and get 40k for those types of games)

    Yes It's cold.

    But the view, atmosphere, downtown, restaurants, bars, coffee etc will sell you.

    You will thank me.

    Beautiful area. I remember when App State played in the SoCon and had some great teams along with GA Southern and Furman..

    Makes me feel old.

    Boone North Carolina...

    I've been there... Liked Sugar Mountain... where I learned to ski. Skied their one black diamond course on my first day.

    I spent all my time on the mountain and did get to go too much of the other night-life there... stayed in a house on the side of the ski course. I will return one day.

    Thanks. But I am unfamiliar with former South Carolina OC Dowell Loggains. Can you please explain exactly why he is a bad fit for Appalachian State HC?

    Extremely short cutoff overalls are the best.
