Appalachian State University head coach Eliah Drinkwitz is putting together what many of his peers and college football analysts are calling an all-star staff. It includes his hiring several newcomers who have no previous ties to the Mountaineers as well as the retention of a few assistants from former coach Scott Satterfield’s staff. And each staff member has had consistent success in their previous assignments as assistant coaches.
The latest assistant hired by Drinkwitz is Alton Adams, Jr. (Junior Adams), who spent the last two seasons as offensive coordinator and receivers coach at Western Kentucky.
Adams’ appointment was announced by Appalachian State on Sunday.
