As App State football deals with a coaching change for the second straight season, head coach Shawn Clark has filled several assistant coaching positions.
Dale Jones, who was part of the Mountaineer staff for 23 years from 1996-2018, was named former defensive coordinator Ted Roof’s replacement after Roof took the same job at Vanderbilt.
“I’m thrilled to be back at App State, where I’ve spent 23 of the last 24 years,” Jones said in a press release. “I love the culture of App State and love this community. I can’t wait to help build a great staff, hit the recruiting trail and continue to bring my aggressive style of play to the field.
