BOONE, N.C. — Title-winning App State alum and staff member Nic Cardwell is returning to the program as an offensive assistant, head football coach Shawn Clark announced Monday.

Cardwell, 35, played for the Mountaineers from 2004-07 and worked seven years in various roles with App State's football program, including the 2018 season as the tight ends coach, before following head coach Scott Satterfield to Louisville.

In 2019, with Cardwell serving as a quality control coach at Louisville, the Cardinals completed an 8-5 season with a victory against Mississippi State in the Music City Bowl.
