I have no doubt App State has a special fan base and great traditions. As others have said, perhaps we can look at their game day activities, decisions and cost and make ours more inviting for our fan base.
While I respect their accomplishments and traditions, I don't aspire to be their small town program model. That is not the model that get's us to the AAC or any other destination. That is the model that works in Boone,NC or Statesboro, Ga. and not Lafayette. They have a unique model that fits their community and feeds their traditions. With all due respect to them, I don't aspire to be a small town program.
