It's only natural I point out with all your success you still couldn't beat App. You guys have gone through one year of this stuff. As you correctly pointed out, we endured years of it. The talent of Edwards covered up most of the problems, but once he left they really started to surface. While the conference record didn't suffer (26 wins in 3 years) once we got into the playoffs the issues became obvious. IMO it was a reflection on how weak the SmallCon was.

Wait a minute, you're going to tell me with Scott Satterfield, Shawn Elliot, and Mark Speir as assistants your coaching was lacking? Surely you jest.

Now I will say 2009-2011 that App State's offensive coaching was definitely lacking, but it's nothing compared to what we've had. We missed the playoffs four straight seasons. It takes a really high level of ineptitude of coaches and administrators to make that streak possible.

And I wouldn't compare it to the level of ineptitude needed to make our offensive roster last year produce less than 30 points a game last year.
