Today was national signing day and head football coach Scott Satterfield was on the David Glenn Show to talk about it. Take a full listen, but here is my favorite quote from the interview:
The effect that being a former App State QB has had on recruiting:
I think the fact that I bleed black & gold, I played here, blood sweat & and tears were here, for the period of time that I played. Not only that, I’ve coached here for 13 seasons. I mean so obviously this is my school. I just believe it down to my core. Some of these guys, they are making alot of money to coach at these schools and you know, so their excitement comes from their paycheck so to speak. Mine comes from down deep. I really and truly believe in this school…It’s an easy sell.
