Sources reporting Eric Church to be named Defensive Coordinator
Unreliable sources. He's being looked at for a waterboy position at UNC.
Mack Browns jock sniffer

This is a really underrated position. Being surrounded by D's and a-holes all day. Hope his compensation reflects this!

Two announcements:

James Rowe, Defensive Assistant
Brad Bielaniec, Director of Athletic Performance

James Rowe is coming from the Redskins and Bielaniec is coming back to us from Marshall.

Don’t forget the retention of Justin Watts

He didn't get it. They didn't trust him.

You are correct. That was announced earlier this week.

Any word on Riley staying?

I have a very reliable source who told me Coach Jerry Moore will continue to be part of this proud football team.

It was announced. But then Rhett Lashlee went to Arkansas and SMU became an option for Riley.

Has been offered to him but he is also a candidate at SMU for the same.

Confirmed by App

Cautiously optimistic...

Pete really scooped that one, seeing how the news of Dale Jone's return as DC was officially posted on appstatesports.com at 3:56pm, a good 20 minutes before Pete's "sources" confirmed.

Ok...maybe it's just me.....but I feel like we might be bringing back an FCS coaching staff for a fbs football team....

Definitely, a delicate tightrope to walk in terms of building a staff that will have some longer-term consistency, all the while bringing in some new blood here and there, with fresh ideas.

Loyalty can get you in trouble. Jury is out for me on this.

I feel similarly. Love having the "app guy" and I love that he's back. But I really want us to get the best coaches for a top 18/19 program in the country.

The guy's a legend. I'll go on record as all in for this hire. Continue the Linebacker U.

I mean, Dale Jones was coaching at App when Shawn Clark was a player. I'm all for consistency, but I'm concerned about the nostalgia factor.

Well hey it's the second straight year this board has been less than thrilled about our DC hire!
