Press Conference

[The Rock]

I liked when Bret Strelow stated at the end that he was surprised nobody asked about the Malik Williams/Zac Thomas QB controversy. Funny.

That was Adam Witten, the voice of the mountaineers

[FTE_rawr]

I was there today, and tried to get a feel for him as a person.

The guy seems like hes really high energy, and seems really excited to be here. Doesn't look like he will make too many changes to our current set up, so hes gonna be great in my book.

EDIT: I also got a picture with him, which was awesome as well.

[Chaz]

I'm pretty jazzed up.

My bad, corrected it. Thanks. Still funny.

I missed the live broadcast and can't find a recording...is there a video link out there somewhere?

Make sure you are fast forwarding a while. Starts about 11.5 minutes in.

Unless you have to have a FB account or you are at work that firewalls would stop it.

[GregPercussion]

something of note Ethan Joyce tweeted out.
Notable FB staffers at the press conference today: Shawn Clark, Justin Watts, Nic Cardwell, DJ Smith, Greg Gasparato.

Notable who weren't: Mark Ivey, Dale Jones, Stu Holt.

Now there's recruiting going on. But... worth noting

Maybe Nate Woody returns and we roll.

[NattyBumppo'sRevenge]

Maybe Nate Woody returns and we roll.

Not this year, he's already accepted a DC position at Army if I'm not mistaken.

[Appstate88]

Not yet. Just a rumor. All GT assistants were just let go.

"This is not a stepping stone job. This is a job coaching a Top 25 program."

That sums it up nicely.

If he moves on in two years, it's a stepping stone despite being a Top 25 Program. Time will tell.

Here's to hoping App doesn't turn in to the new Arkansas State where they had Freeze, Harsin, and Malzahn in three consecutive seasons then got stuck with Blake Anderson. Anderson has done a good job building a foundation of success and continuity at stAte which they previously lacked at the FBS level but he is also holding them back.

I’m sure someone heard it, took it the wrong way and will post about it here very soon

Bet DG's blood is boiling not seeing his main man Horton along with his Who's from Whoville up there.

[t4pizza]

He sure was impressive in the press conference. Really liked what I heard and very excited about next year.

DG? Are you referring to Doug Gillin? Don't understand your comment.

[appgrad]

He’s referring to the original App DG - Doug Glenn. Been pushing Tim Horton as our next coach for a few decades.

[ericsaid]

Any chance App could nab a GT transfer if they decide to leave after being recruited for Woody's defense? One thing that hasn't been noted is Drink's Thank You to Gillin. He wasn't looking at him and looking away, didn't appear to be uncomfortable looking directly at him and thanking him, and seemed genuine. It may be a small thing but that's the look of someone with unshakable confidence in what they are doing and knows the work required to get moving.
