Biggest Week In Boone History

How could things get any bigger for Boone - in same week:

  • Miss South Carolina commits to enroll at Appy State next year
  • Appy State gets biggest upset win in college football history
  • Jennifer visit

From ESPN Sunday:

So hats off to Appalachian State, which completed a week like none in school history.

First came word via "The Today Show" of a recruiting coup for the little school in the North Carolina mountains. Caitlin Upton, the freshly famous Miss Teen South Carolina, whose dingbat answer to a beauty pageant question became an instant YouTube classic, told Matt Lauer she planned to attend Appalachian State. This might not have dazzled the academic folks on campus, but I guarantee the male students are stoked.

Including the football team, perhaps? Maybe Miss Upton's commitment was the final motivation for the Mountaineers to defrock college football's winningest program in America's largest stadium.
