Revisiting this real quick, but is there a guy that more exudes the Mountaineer way than ADG? One thing I’ve always noticed with him on his social media, he loves App State.

He retweets/likes App stuff constantly, he’s a hard worker. He’s also a proven winner and was the leader of a defense that was part of maybe our best team ever. You can also tell how well liked he is by his ex-teammates because they were all commenting on and retweeting his big play last night.

It’s really cool to see him getting the accolades he deserves at the highest level.

This is the last year of his rookie deal. I would think they will want to keep him. Hopefully he gets a nice second contract.

I was watching when it happened, jumped up and screamed Akeeeeeem! Hope he gets a ring this year, followed by a big contract. Love that guy, App St personified.

Didn't feel like pulling up his thread but Sam Martin has punted well and has a shot at a ring. Has any former App player gotten a Super Bowl ring?

The only Mountaineer who was on an active roster for a Super Bowl winner was Matt Stevens, a New England Patriot. AJ Howard was on the NE practice squad, Daniel Wilcox was on Tampa Bay but inactive, and John Settle was a Redskin but didn't see any action.

He definitely played in a Super Bowl, not sure he was a winner.

I was a die-hard Skins fan for a long time and only vaguely remember Settle on the team those 2 years. As long as he was on the active roster it counts. Being on the practice squad or inactive for the actual game isn't quite the same so it sounds like Stevens and Settle are it so far?

I don't know what Settle's status was in 1991. He was hurt in the preseason and had no stats on the season. If he was on the roster he got no PT.

When ADG made that interception, I jumped out of my chair and started hollering at the TV.
My wife thought I'd lost my mind. I told her what had just happened. She still thought I'd lost my mind.

ADG made a nice special teams tackle on kick-off coverage, in today's AFC Championship game.

When there was that late hit out of bounds I was just saying to myself - Please not #59 - I could see it was a 5 and a round number, pretty sure it was 58 and but just glad it wasn't 59 = most certainly cost them the game, at least in regulation

Late hit was a late hit not sure wth #58 was thinking. However I think both crews had the home cooking yesterday.

#59 is fast enough that he would have brought him down inbounds before he got the 1st down. He should have been on the field.
