It turns out the biggest threat for Dwayne Ledford’s services wasn’t App State, but rather the guy who just left App State and walked into a much larger budget. Per a report from Football Scoop, Ledford is leaving NC State and reuniting with Scott Satterfield at Louisville. Those two worked together for several years at App.
From what we're hearing, OL coach Dwayne Ledford will add OC to his title at Louisville, which makes that move easy to make. Good for him, he could be getting his chance to call plays.

Whether or not Ledford technically is getting a promotion, he certainly earned a raise out of this move, and beyond that, maybe he just wanted another opportunity to work with Satterfield.
