Frank Ponce is back in Boone as offensive coordinator, App State head coach Shawn Clark announced Jan. 15.
Ponce enjoyed a successful first stint with the Mountaineers from 2013-18 when he served as an offensive assistant and co-offensive coordinator.
“I’m excited to be back. It’s something that I’m looking forward to. It’s a new challenge for me, something that I’ve prepared for, and I think I’m ready for,” Ponce said. “Great fans, great university and a winning tradition, and obviously, can’t wait to meet the guys and start working with them already.”
Ponce and Clark met while serving as the Mountaineers’ co-offensive coordinators under head coach Scott Satterfield from 2016-18, with Ponce in charge of the passing game and Clark overseeing the running game.
