Appalachian State is firing football coach Shawn Clark after a 5-6 season, according to multiple media reports. Clark, 49, compiled a 40-24 record with the Mountaineers, including a 3-1 record in bowl games. Clark took over at his alma mater in December 2019 after Eli Drinkwitz departed to become the head coach at Missouri. The Mountaineers were 9-3 in his first full season in 2020 and finished 10-4 in 2021. This was his first losing season. Before becoming an assistant coach at Appalachian State in 2016, Clark coached the offensive line for Kent State (2013-15), Purdue (2009-12) and Eastern Kentucky (2003-08). The Mountaineers’ season ended Saturday with a 29-20 loss at Georgia Southern. –Field Level Media
