For instance, before ESPN+, App State had a subscription service for their games that was like $25 for the season or some poo.

I had that and it sucked absolute ass.  It looked like somebody was on the top of the stadium pointing a HandyCam from 2001 at the field.  They piped the radio broadcast in over it and it usually went out of sync.

Give me the presentation and production quality of ESPN+ for $10 a month all day over that.  poo looks like Sunday Night Football compared to what we used to get, if App was even on TV.  Plus David Jackson giving us homer takes in the announcing booth, that's been nice.

Yeah I did too, it was laughably bad. I'm very thankful for ESPN+ it being owned by the Disney overlords notwithstanding.

😂 Great play but damn if the audio on the radio call was atrocious and the video was terrible and missed the best part of the play even though the ball was easily seen. So close if they just follow the ball.

I'm guessing they were watching the play with their eyes rather than the screen and didn't adjust the angle until after the catch.

One of the camera men who gets tackles there at the end actually had an awesome shot if you look it up

here's one of them from the App State camera man that was beside them that's also good but I'm still looking for the video from the guy that gets tackled at the end.

I can't find the one from the camera man that got tackled anymore but I saw it come through my twitter feed yesterday immediately afterwards but now there's like 50 billion videos of the play everywhere so it's impossible to find one video almost.

The consensus seems to be that most of the country dug College Gameday.  Corso seemed to be happy and on point as well, and that was heartwarming considering what he's been through.

I haven't been to Boone in ten years, but when they did that shot floating over Sanford Mall it all came rushing back to me.  I felt like I had just been there yesterday and not a decade ago.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
