This is what happens when you go FBS by joining a low tier FBS conference... you play on Tuesday night and LOSE, but nobody knows about it... LOL - I LOVE IT

If you look at Twitter and search App State, boy those fans are not a happy bunch right now. Also after the win the fanbase at App was throwing trash at the players as they walked to the locker room

I will admit that I stumbled across that game and actually watched it so that I could pull against the arrogant Appies. While I typically root for fellow schools from the conference and the state and our sister UNC System schools, App is an exception.

I wish the App/WCU game from 2004 was on youtube somewhere as I would like to watch that game again

We'd probably be better off if they win, because otherwise they might come sniffing around our coach

We'd probably be better off if they win, because otherwise they might come sniffing around our coach Kerwin would be looking for a much bigger job! Now ECU might, they are not happy out there at all with Mike Houston, but they probably can't afford his buyout.

Now ECU might, they are not happy out there at all with Mike Houston, but they probably can't afford his buyout. Gator fans are definitely taking notice too

I live in Gator country, and they are NOT happy at all with Napier. But they would clearly be going after a huge name. That isn't to say they wouldn't be interested in Bell in some capacity, as most Gator fans seem to have very fond memories of him. But I do not think they would be considering him as the head coach given his age and the fact he has not been a head man at an FBS school.
As for ECU, they have a lot more money than most would probably guess. Lots of old farming and tobacco dollars still floating around. But I would probably guess the same thing.
All bets are off on any of that if Kerwin Bell wins a national championship. That changes the narrative significantly more than authoring a very nice turnaround. If he checked the box of D2 and then FCS champion that is providing a lot of proof. But a long way to go for any of that kind of talk.
As for the App State game, I watched nearly all of it. Of course I am a college football junkie/degenerate.

They are in dire straights, they had to pay off the prior AD Compher and HC Scotty Montgomery.
