BOONE, N.C. — Is the High Country home to Flavortown, N.C.? Call it Cooking 101 with Coach (or Chef) Clark?
To clarify, at The Rock, it's more of a 300-level course.
App State is once again a nationally ranked program, appearing at No. 23 in the Amway Coaches Poll thanks to a 35-20 victory against Charlotte. The Mountaineers rushed for 308 yards and four touchdowns, prompting head coach Shawn Clark to compare their zone-blocking system to making bread from scratch.
Both require patience but have a big payoff.
"In our running game, we have the outside zone and inside zone, and it's kind of like making bread," Clark said.
