Is Nate Woody doing anything? It would be a wise move on Drink’s part to bring in the architect of this hybrid D as a consultant for the remainder of the season. We need to get back stoping the run and making in game adjustments that work.

We need to just keep on winning. Maybe that might help shut up the boo birds.

He is an analyst for Michigan Football. Nate currently is not welcome here at App State.

Nate Woody is a douche bag and was never an App Man.

True.

This is not an overreaction. It was a bad hire when we made it, it’s a bad hire now. Dude just isn’t a good coach, the evidence is there. Open the debate

Not a good coach? I guess Coach Drinkwitz doesn't know who are good coaches and who are not. Eh? Same for Doug Gillian. Eh?

I don't recall who specifically, but this board had many critics of Scott Satterfield as well, then a rich P5 hired him away. Some people just see things through a negative filter. It's sad if you think about it. I sometimes feel like they're pissing on our potential "special season" and also giving Drink and his staff a bad taste and false perspective as to what our overall fan base is like.
It's also upsetting that potential recruits and their families are going to read stupid stuff like this thread and not give us serious consideration because they'll get the impression that our coaching staff is in turmoil and they might be replaced. Kids like to know who's going to be coaching them.
Bottom line is this type of public negativity isn't helping anything and actually could be hurting the program. We're 4-0 with a P5 win, if we end up with 4 or 5 regular season losses I may join in but it's ridiculous to do so at this point.

I think some just like to show off how much they know (or think they know) about football.

Yep, plus they have the convenience of hind sight and seeing if the plays work or not, whereas the coaches have like 30 to 45 seconds in the moment to decide on a play and get the right personnel in for the next play.

I’ve forgotten more football than I ever knew.....

Can we delete this stupid thread?

[Yosef10]

Sounds like some of y’all really missed yalls calling as a defensive coordinator

You don't have to be a defensive coordinator to see the scheme has changed. Any semi-knowledgeable football fan can see it.

I’ve read all your comments, you have 0 clue what is going on. Saying the LB are being brought up while ignoring the loss of Stout doesn’t make you Bear Bryant my guy. But i get the feeling to wanna play DC on a message board, there’s quite a few of y’all.

[bigdaddyg]

If anyone opens this thread it should immediately link to remaining unbeaten FBS teams thread. Just saying.

[1ASU78]

I don't think I've commented in this thread but it could become historical and I wouldn't want to be left out of the annals of history.

Changing gears: why is Woody not welcome, a douche bag and never an App man? I must have missed something.

Please tell me where I'm ignoring the loss of Stout. I actually said losing players hurts. So maybe you didn't read all of my comments?

When you're bringing in your best coverage LB to the line and your best coverage safety up for run support, that's 100% a change in scheme.

Again, I wouldn't have a problem with the change of scheme if it was started in camps. It simply wasn't.

The players are now getting the hang of the scheme and things are starting to click more.
I am expecting the defense to really show out this week. Almost like they've had 5 weeks of running it now -- about the same amount of time as fall camp. Interesting how that matches up.

I don't hate Roof. I also think it was dumb for the fire him rants. My only issue has been his changing of scheme at start of season instead of in camps.

Technically, no, he wasn't an "App man"... But he did a lot for the program. The reason why he isn't welcome back is because his coaching style didn't go over too well with the "powers that be" and they prefer to not revisit that situation. I personally appreciate what Nate did with the program, but understand the choice to not bring him back after things I heard. Nothing heinous, just not a good look.
