We have to address the QB. Whomever said joey was 90% coming back was dead wrong. Can't win without a decent QB.
Perhaps we can snap it directly to the running back every time and become a run only offense. We could have a scoring defense that does not need the offense to score to win ballgames. We could become a special teams team that allows our special teams to do all the scoring with field goals, blocked field goals, blocked punts, and kickoff returns. What would make the most sense is to take the players we have and use the best of their abilities, build them up to outlast their opponents, and believe they can win every game and then win every game.

We do not want the best players, we want the second best players so they will play together as a team and win as a team.

My guess is that DLo has already targeted his QB. Maybe it is the current backup at USC....as Sellers signed new nil with USC and they signed another QB in the portal....do not have a clue ..just a guess

I could actually go along with the idea of the second best players. Teamwork makes the dream work.

The problem is some of those 2nd best players become studs and leave for the money.

Looks like he only played 4 games this year, all non conference games. Did he red shirt or get injured?

Appreciate the inside scoop. Having Stonewall on the board is like a Free VIP thread. He is awesome!!

Thank you for posting Moose. Take care brother and prayers up for you!

Khalifa looks like the MAN. It is clear Dowell is recruiting a different type of athlete than Clark could sniff. Athletes know a good coach when they see one!!

I’m confused? Were we bad under Clark because he couldn’t get good enough players or were we bad under Clark because we had good players but he couldn’t coach em up? Some of yall need to let your hatred of Clark go. It’s getting ridiculous at this point. This kid hasn’t done one thing at App yet, neither has our coach btw. I’d be happy if he’s as good as Marshall

Thank you. This guy hasn't run a down and DLo hasn't coached a down yet. We all hope both prove to do what we need to happen. But, stop using every post to denigrate Clark. He's gone.

I don’t really get how many more shots we as fans need to take at Clark. It’s like I said in an earlier post, a few posters on here act like Clark did something to them personally and they are gonna get their pound of flesh no matter what. I want the next App State chapter be successful but it’s not like App teams under Clark didn’t have some successes.
