🏈 The Making of Mountain Men
👏 Making An Impact
⏱️ Countdown to Kickoff
🟡 And much more!

3️⃣2️⃣ days from kickoff…

The date was November 10, 2012.
The opponent? Furman.

In a dramatic 33-28 victory over the Paladins, Jamal Londry-Jackson thrilled the home crowd by completing 3️⃣2️⃣ of 46 passes for 332 yards. His 3️⃣2️⃣ completions are the fifth-most in a single game in program history.

With the win, the Mountaineers clinched their 12th SoCon Conference Championship.

🔼 The Making of Mountain Men. It’s a tradition unlike any other.

No, we’re not talking about Jim Nantz at the Masters, we’re talking about the Knob Run.

This past week, our App State football guys took on the grueling task of climbing the Howard’s Knob. For those who hadn’t completed the challenge before, they are now officially Mountaineers.

🔼 Fresh Face. There are plenty of new Mountaineers that will be joining the family this year.

Today, we meet another new face for the men’s hoops program.

The latest episode of Boone Ballers introduces us to freshman guard Ted Neal, who arrives at App State from his hometown of Greensboro, Ga.

🔼 Making An Impact. Not only do Myles Farmer and Elijah Mc-Cantos make an impact on the field, but they’re also doing it in the community.

Recently, the duo gave back by spending some time and showing some love to a group from the High Country Caregivers, a local non-profit organization serving grandparents and other relatives who are raising children in their families.

Myles and Elijah talked to the kids about career choices, playing sports and some life lessons that they’ve learned along the way.

In the latest episode of the Nothin’ But An App State Podcast, Bret and Adam chat with head football coach Dowell Loggains, DL Shawn Collins, OL Jayden Ramsey and Sun Belt commissioner Keith Gill from New Orleans for the annual Sun Belt football media day.

In that 2012 victory over Furman, who was Jamal Londry-Jackson’s top target for his 3️⃣2️⃣ completions?
