Beat me to it. No arguments from me on his hire.

[falcoapp]

Wow. That's a hell of a hire.

[NavyApp]

I love this hire. Drink is not playing around; he is not going to let this program stagnate. He is here to win!

[BeauFoster]

This is an amazing hire on paper. Should be some serious QB play over the next few years (even higher than previously seen).

[Rekdiver]

Its amazing what can go down over the course of 20 minutes here!

This is a very strategic hire. I like it.

[NavyApp]

For the money we have allocated to assistants to pull this off Drink did a heck of sells job. You're talking about a National Championship QB(on one of the greatest CFB teams ever), NFL QB, and Cams QB coach for his MVP season. We got him for pennies on the dollar.

Zac, Huesman and Derrick just got a NFL caliber Coach. Now need to get a solid QB recruit for this cycle. Looks like a great hire! We will be throwing the ball all over the field next year!

[appstate24]

WOW!
What. A. Hire.
This is incredible for our QBs, our offense, and RECRUITING. Cheers Coach Drink, heck of a hire! GO APPS!!

WR coach from Maryland?

Nah

Any chance we get a Justin Stepp return?

[HighPointApp]

Our WRs, QBs and RBs may be a little excited with Coach D’s hires on the offensive side of the ball.

One hire at a time.

There are quite a few back stories here...to me, with these hires and their cumulative track record, the question becomes:

Is Zac Thomas, if he remains healthy, the 1st App State QB ever drafted ??

(AS QB)

I remember just short of 3 weeks ago feeling like my insides had been ripped out. Now I’m like “Scott who”? Amazing what the right hire can do for your short term memory! 2019 will be THE year for App State football. This will be fun to watch!! I can’t wait.

You mean the former coach?

[Rick83]

LOVE THIS HIRE! I'll bet Dorsey's got contacts throughout both Florida and Georgia...prime recruiting ground. It feels like Drink's setting the stage for launching us to the next level. The waif for the DC is killing me but it's clear he's doing things exactly the way he said he would...quickly but not rushed. My excitement is growing!!

This may point to our winning culture and recognizing that being within the App State coaching tree is a good thing. $$ can come later... Satt has proven a direct jump to the big bucks is possible from Boone.

It’s in our best interests that Satt and the gang tear it up at UL...I think they will!

[ComebackShack]

Seeing reports that we won’t announce the DC until after their bowl game. Bet it leaks soon tho.

[ComebackShack]

My post above confirms it won’t be Woody since they almost certainly would announce him and get him on staff ASAP as their game is meaningless. Leads me to believe it’s a pretty big bowl game that our DC is playing in. They’d bring Roof immediately too as he isn’t too important to NC States defense and they haven’t had any turnover there.

We had a coach named Scott? I only remember a guy named Eli.
