Dear Appalachian Family,
It feels like only yesterday that we were holding up the Dollar General Bowl trophy and celebrating in the locker room in Mobile, Alabama. Thanks to great leadership from our coaching staff and a record-setting senior class, we were able to celebrate not only our third straight bowl victory but also our second consecutive Sun Belt Conference Championship.
As Appalachian State's head coach, I do not take these championships lightly. We have been fortunate to win consistently across my career as a Mountaineer, but I know first-hand the effort and attention to detail it takes to win at a high level.
