Just glad we have our guy already. Pretty cool we can keep stuff under wraps without a leak too. Keep it tight knit and hold that culture. Now time to go land some defensive recruits!

Goodness, you guys can't be pleased... When we hired Clark is was lazy and we should have taken our time...

Now that we're "taking our time" to hire a DC, it's because Clark has no idea what we're doing.

Perhaps we already have our guy but aren't being classless and leaking it ahead of time? You know, accepting the wishes of the candidate?
I never said Clark hire was lazy and don’t
Agree with that statement. I also agree the DC hire may be a done deal but keeping it quiet. I am totally ok with that as well.

Wasn't directed particularly to you, but the board in general.

I don't know if the DC hire has been made and kept hush. I am just simply saying there are reasons us fans haven't heard things. Just because we don't see any movement doesn't mean there isn't any.

I was talking with another fan....will it be hard to get a good DC if that DC knows that Clark could be gone after next season?

Maybe for some. For some that might be a perk. Do well enough and you might have the chance to take over.

If you are writing off Clark and the 2023 season in December 2022, I'd recommend taking a break from App State athletics for a year. We may let you back on the bandwagon in October.

I agree with what you're saying but honestly I can only recall one guy using "lazy hire" to describe Coach Clark. We can't just roll out the checkbook like the big boys do.

You must not have read the fire Clark threads then. And I don't blame you.

That’s your comeback, take your weak sauce elsewhere.

This is a place for people that believe in Mountaineers.

Literally no one said they were writing off next season. Are we going to pretend that Clark isn’t on the hot seat?

Do we have the $ for Co-Defensive Coordinators, M. Ivey (DL and run game) G. Gasparato (LBs and pass game).

I wouldn’t say it’s hot, but it’s definitely not cold.

If I can't have two head coaches, you can't have two co-defensive coordinators. LOL

Why would you have Oline coach as DC?
