ASU's Coaching situation

[Appsolutely]

That I was right?

Him being put at assistant Head Coach kind of clarifies that.

Being an assistant head coach does not guarantee one the HC job. At FSU, Fisher was named HCIW. That is not the case here. In any event, this is not good news for the stinkin' creek sniffers.

It points toward that being the case. It's not publicly set in stone but if you can read between the lines it's not that hard. Oh wait I'm talking to a Mountaineer.....

Satterfield doesn't scare me. I can see the rest of FCS being worried because of what has happened against other teams, but with Satterfield calling the plays after implementing the spread, only one game was won by more than single digits. You think you're gonna roll over us because of Satterfield? Yea ok.

I agree that the writing is on the wall and he will be a leading candidate to replace JM when he retires. However, the distinction of not having the HCIW label is important, in my opinion. He should have to earn it as opposed to being handed the keys to the program without seeing how he does with this team as OC. I expect him to do well and in all likelihood, he will be our next head coach but the ability to keep our options open is in the best interest of our program.

Well, we kind of beat you this year with a decidedly average Jekyl and Hyde ASU team in a transition year with disjointed playcalling. I like our chances with a more coherent game plan with Satterfield going forward.

I didn't read anywhere that ASU was going to roll over anybody - Satterfield's appointment to this position will be a bit of a learning curve for him, but I like the fact that the elephant in the room regarding JM's retirement and possible successor is being addressed by Cobb.

[ASU_Fanatic]

Whoooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[asu7]

I think our days of being unprepared are over!!!!

[asknoquarter21]

I am most excited about getting back to the basic principles of the spread.

No disrespect to coach Glenn and company, but our lack of adjusting at the line was maddening. I think coach Glenn will do well at WCU, but I think in order to run a spread you have to lineup first then see what you are given.

Far too many times we would line up and run a play without ever even taking notice of how the defense is lined up. A defense can gameplan against that. They can't gameplan against a team that continually takes what you give them.

[asumike83]

I think our days of being unprepared are over!!!!

That is my hope as well. If we get beat, we get beat by a better team. Nothing is more frustrating than being beat because you weren't ready to play.

[asknoquarter21]

My biggest concern is that many ASU fans' expectations went from unreasonably low to unreasonably high in the matter of a few hours. Those same fans who were predicting that we'd go 3-8 in 2012 are probably expecting a championship now!

I try to stay somewhere in the middle. I thought next year would be about like this year, where we would would win a few games we might not should have just based off talent.

I don't have a problem losing games, it wouldn't be fun if you won every game. I had a problem with the way we lost games this season, and that is what was so frustrating. I still think we will show up flat sometimes, but I don't think we will have games where I am driving home saying "Why didn't we do that?" or "We didn't try to win that game."

[appstate38]

Now we need to find an OL coach and get the running game back on track. Great hire. Was starting to wonder if the Apps were gonna survive.

Don't believe I said we would roll you. I expect Satterfield to be a major candidate for the HC job when Moore retires. There is a difference between having been named HCIW and having to earn it. Are the gnats still around in January down there?

[asknoquarter21]

I personally think RB will be our position next year where we outperform what we were expected to do.

Every year it seems we have a big question mark at some position and we play far above what we were expected. Last season was D-Line I think this one will be RB. Holloway, Morgan, Miller, Chisholm are all great backs and I am sure Satterfield will get the most out of them.

[asumike83]

I don't have a problem losing games, it wouldn't be fun if you won every game.

I respectfully disagree, sir. xpeacex

[hapapp]

Absolutely, but the change of pace was such a huge part of that offense. It was not 'jet' all the time like Oregon runs but when we got in a rhythm and the D was wearing down, turning up the pace resulted in a lot of quick scoring drives. Very excited to see what our offense looks like next season.

My biggest concern is that many ASU fans' expectations went from unreasonably low to unreasonably high in the matter of a few hours. Those same fans who were predicting that we'd go 3-8 in 2012 are probably expecting a championship now!


Exactly. I think it is a great hire but let's temper our expectations. For me, the most important aspect of this move is how it influences the hiring of the other assistant coaching positions. That may be the real plus in this move.

I was sold on Chisholm....I ain't sold on any of them until they play....and we block! We have to have these guys, but the line play and intensity has to be upgraded!

I agree completely, I think solidifying the OC position will allow us to land a very solid staff.

Unrelated: I had no idea there was a Rocky Mount, VA! I was born in Rocky Mount, NC and thought it was the only one.

[MaxASU'81]

I was born in Rocky Mount, NC and thought it was the only one.

When did you leave Rocky Mount for ASU...I was in Kinston in '83-'85, and a man I work with Greg Joyner: (ASU and Rocky Mount) were talking the other night about the conference down east that RM, Kinston, Fike, Beddingfield, Northeastern, et. al. was in.

I actually left Rocky Mount when I was very young. I went to High School in Raleigh before I went to ASU so with the exception of one family that my parents stayed close with, I don't really know any folks that are still in the area.

[furbaloffear]

It points toward that being the case. It's not publicly set in stone but if you can read between the lines it's not that hard.

In his teleconference this afternoon, Satterfield said that he has not been named the HCIW but has been given the impression he will be in contention for the job whenever coach Moore decides to retire. I agree that he will probably be the leading candidate when the time comes but I don't think he's got the job by any means.

[seantaylor]

Who the hell is Steve Satterfield?

With rivalry games there's never a guarantee. I definitely think it's in both schools' best interest to both be good. It adds so much more to the season. I think this will help ASU be better. GSU fans should be happy about that. If you're going to beat us, you may as well beat us when we're good. Right?

[ASUMountaineer]

I respectfully disagree, sir. xpeacex

I'm with you Mike on this one. xthumbsupx

[james_lawfirm]

Who the hell is Steve Satterfield?

If your question is serious, I'll answer it answer seriously. If not, please ignore this post. BTW, it's Scott Satterfield.

Satterfield was an App QB in '92 - '95 (I think); & Asst. Coach during App's Nat'l Title runs 2005 - 2007. He was the "offensive coordinator" in fact, although no one actually held that title, during the Spread Option offenses from 2004 on. In about 2008 - ish, he went to Akron as Asst. Coach & then for the last 2 years, he was the Off. Coor. at FIU. He's an offensive genius. The App faithful are experiencing joy & jubilation over his second coming. You'll see why soon enough.

[Apphole]

I'm loving the concerned smack talk from Stink fans. Me thinks they might have a hard time envisioning a win next year. Understandable considering they couldn't pull one off before we had our offensive architect back.

[eaglemachine]

Who's Erik Russell? I know of a famous GSU coach named Erk Russell but no Erik :)

Yes they were losses. No moral victories. However they weren't us just letting you run away with it. So don't think Satterfield is going to cause that.

Satterfield is 3-2 against us when calling the plays. Bring that ****.

There is one key aspect that you are overlooking: the 2012 game falls on my birthday. Therefore, out of respect to ASU's most dedicated fan who has decided to spend his birthday in Statesboro, the Eagles will have no choice but to roll over and accept defeat. Anything less would be poor sportsmanship!

3-2 is a pretty solid record when you consider how tight the rivalry is between ASU and GaSouthern... I think ASU is two games on the positive in the SERIES? Project 3-2 over a decade and we get 6 and 4... a winning record and an increase in our win total over GaSouthern...

At this point it's all ifs and butts and conjecture until we a get few games and seasons behind us, but I for one have had a grand ole "late" Christmas with the return of Satterfield!

Well if you want to get technical about it, Satterfield is 1-1 when calling the plays against a GSU option team.

So yes, it would be very even. Like I said before, Satterfield doesn't scare me in terms of ASU vs GSU....it should worry the hell out of everyone else though.

[asumike83]

I agree. It wouldn't matter if one of us got Nick Saban or Urban Meyer, our rivalry always has been even and I do not expect any coaching hires to change that. Even when ASU was obviously the superior team (and vice versa), the games were even. On paper, there is no way our '07 team should have lost to GSU. Likewise, there is no rational explanation for us beating you guys in '99.

I went back and looked at the 2007 numbers with a friend of mine a few weeks ago...we had an INSANE offense in 2007, either on par or better than App's. Inconsistencies from switching offensive schemes twice in as many years hurt, but we generated a lot of offense and a good deal of points. Our problem that year was defense....it was pretty bad and was the walking injured toward the end of the season. I would say offense wise, App and GSU were on a level playing field that year, we were both running the same type of offense basically with great athletes at the skill position.

As for 99....I have no answer for that. That was an offensive juggernaut. Good job on App's part.

I think his point was that we were just as good of a team as App. was in 2007, and that's true.

[Saint3333]

I think his point was that we were just as good of a team as App. was in 2007, and that's true.

By the end of the year this wasn't true, ASU got on a roll in the second half of the year once everyone healed up and the offense was the best I've ever seen at ASU, thus a national championship.

[GlassOnion]

I think his point was that we were just as good of a team as App. was in 2007, and that's true.

Dont thinks so, App ypg 488, GSU 456, and App played 5 playoff teams, and Michigan.

At the end of the year, ASU put up 170 points in 4 playoff games, and straight up rolled Deleware in the title game.

[T-Dog]

In 2007, GSU has Jayson Foster, Jayson Foster and Jayson Foster.

In 2007, ASU had Armanti, Dexter Jackson, Kevin Richardson, Hans Batichon, Nic Cardwell, Devon Moore, TJ Courman and more.

In November when Armanti finally got 100%, ASU's offense went into another stratosphere. The average drive was something like 5-6 plays, 80-90 yards in less than 2 minutes. Complete insanity.

[StorminASU]

I think his point was that we were just as good of a team as App. was in 2007, and that's true.

That would be comparable to us saying we were as good as GSU this year. You won some you shouldn't have and lost some you shouldn't have, just like us this year. We both know ASU wasn't as good, we just pulled off a great win. GSU wasn't as good either in 2007.

[ASUMountaineer]

Well if you want to get technical about it, Satterfield is 1-1 when calling the plays against a GSU option team.

So yes, it would be very even. Like I said before, Satterfield doesn't scare me in terms of ASU vs GSU....it should worry the hell out of everyone else though.

That makes sense, we're 1-1 against Monken. No need for us to worry there either. As I said before, in a rivalry game all bets are off.

Let's not forget Aramanti was taken out early in the 3rd quarter of a number of those later regular season games. Our offense was unbelievable after mid season and in the NC a UTC grad watching the game against Delaware asked, how we lost to anyone that year....we were that dominating. xnodx

[Rekdiver]

Coaching issues fixed.........Hurt recruiting I believe a bit but we will be stronger for another run after this year.

[T-Dog]

Time to put a nice bowtie on this saga. Here's what happened to the 2011 staff. 7 out of 10 assistants are gone.

Dale Jones (DC/OLB)------Stayed
Mike Kent (S&C)----------S&C @ Colorado State
Mark Speir (RC)-----------HC @ WCU
Chris Moore (RB)---------Let Go
Bob McClain (OL)---------Let Go
Scot Sloan (DB)----------Stayed, added RC title
Brad Glenn (QB)----------OC @ WCU
Jason Blalock (DL)--------Stayed
Trey Elder (WR)----------WR @ WCU
John Holt (TE)------------OL @ WCU
John Mark Hamilton (DA)--Stayed

And here's the 2012 staff additions. 11 assistants this year.

Scott Satterfield (OC/QB/Asst HC) - Was OC @ FIU. 2nd stint at ASU. Unofficial HC in waiting.
Nic Cardwell (TE) - Was assistant director of S&C and worked in the private sector. ASU TE 2004-2007. Co-captain in 2007.
Justin Stepp (WR) - Was offensive grad assistant at Clemson. Former Furmie WR.
Dwayne Ledford (OL) - Was OL coach at Gardner Webb. Played OL at ECU and the NFL.
Chris Foster (RB) - Was RB coach at his alma-mater Gardner Webb. Two-time all Big South RB.
Bryan Brown (DA) - Was defensive grad assistant at his alma-mater Ole Miss. Played DB and hoops in college.
Kareem Young (S&C) - Was ASU S&C grad assistant under Mike Kent last season.
Mark Ivey (ILB/ST) - Was HC at Naples HS in Florida. ASU LB 1991-1995.

Alvis Whitted was hired as WR coach but resigned when he was offered the position at Colorado State. Darren Hiller was lined up to come in as OL coach but then Nevada swooped him up. Damn Mountain West stealing our incoming coaches.

Met a good number of the new coaches last week. Really impressed with the lot of them. Ledford is a giant of a man. Satterfield had a big hand in putting this crew together. From knowing Nic Cardwell and hearing about Ivey and Ledford, motivation will not be an issue going forward.

FYI, Ivey's not on the coaches' page yet because he's still in the process of relocating. His last day at Naples HS was March 2nd. Official word will be when his contract is signed, sealed and delivered within the next few days.

Looking forward to see us running plays like the option reverse again this fall. It's been so long. xlovex

[paward]

T-Dog thank you so very much! I was about to spend two days reading this entire thread.

[AppMan]

T-Dog thank you so very much! I was about to spend two days reading this entire thread.

Satterfield's offensive creativity will give ASU a shot to win every game and if Ledford can fix the O-line issues ASU will contend for the NC. Even with the loss of the starting nose tackle and three key D-line back-ups, ASU will put a scary good defensive unit on the field in 2012.

[mountaineermaniac]

I just realized that Dwayne Ledford went to McDowell High. The school in which I graduated in 2009. He graduated in 1994 as a All-WNC player and two time All-Conference selection. Who knew....

O-line is the key. Satterfield can be the most creative playcaller in the league, but App cannot contend for a title throwing it 40+ times a game, I think. A couple of times last year, opposing defensive tackles might as well have been playing for the Mountaineer offense as many times as they were in their backfield.
