Ponce-Diaz 2019!

I refuse to believe Manny would do this to the fanbase.

I will say the fact the ******* that started this thread has since deleted his account tells me someone within the administration wanted this name to get out so it would soften the blow for some point down the road. This was probably the ******* Richt was going to appease the fans with as his "OC".

I'm going to lose my ******* **** tomorrow if the official announcement is we hired this guy to be our "innovative OC".

FRANK PONCE


Co-Offensive Coordinator (Passing Game)/Quarterbacks
Frank Ponce is entering his sixth season as Appalachian State's co-offensive coordinator for the passing game and quarterbacks coach.
Ponce helped groom 2017 senior Taylor Lamb, who finished his career as the school and Sun Belt leader in touchdown passes with 90. The only FBS quarterbacks in 2017 with career totals of at least 9,000 passing yards and 2,000 rushing yards were Lamb, Ohio State's J.T. Barrett and Louisville's Lamar Jackson.

With 27 touchdown passes and six interceptions as a senior, Lamb had the second-best season for an App State quarterback in terms of touchdown-to-interception ratio. He was 15th nationally in passing efficiency (152.2), 17th in passing touchdowns (27) and 20th in point responsibility (192).

Lamb led the conference in passing efficiency two years straight and was fourth as a junior, last season, despite a group of young wide receivers. In 2015, Lamb ranked third among all freshman in the NCAA Division I FBS, he ranked No. 10 nationally with a 160.7 pass-efficiency rating and was the highest-rated sophomore. Working with Ponce, Lamb has set several Appalachian State records, including freshman passing yards (2,381) and touchdown passes (17) by a freshman during his Sun Belt Freshman of the Year campaign and, in 2015, most touchdown passes in a season (31).

In 2015, Ponce's aerial attack ranked No. 1 in the Sun Belt in passing efficiency (163.2), good for seventh-best nationally, en route to the No. 2 best red zone offense in the conference.In his first season at Appalachian State (2-13), Ponce directed the Southern Conference's No. 2-ranked passing game (271.8 ypg). He also oversaw the development of quarterback Kameron Bryant, who came into the season with just 13 snaps under his belt yet set school records for single-season completion percentage (.712) and passing yards by a sophomore (2,713) despite not making his debut as a starter until the fifth game of the season.

Ponce came to Appalachian State after spending six seasons (2007-12) as the wide receivers coach at Florida International, where he worked under App State head coach Scott Satterfield for the two seasons that Satterfield served as FIU's offensive coordinator (2010-11).

Ponce coached six of the top 10 receivers in FIU history during his six seasons with the Golden Panthers. His most notable pupil at FIU was three-time all-American T.Y. Hilton, who went on to be a third-round NFL Draft pick and has caught 214 passes for 3,289 yards and 19 touchdowns in his first two seasons with the Indianapolis Colts.

Ponce was also renowned for his recruiting ability during his time at FIU and was honored by ESPN.com as the Sun Belt's top recruiter in 2010. During his six seasons at FIU, the Golden Panthers' recruiting classes ranked among the top three in the Sun Belt five times, according to Rivals.com.

Prior to FIU, Ponce was one of the top high-school coaches in football-rich south Florida, serving as the head coach and offensive coordinator at tradition-laden Miami Senior H.S. from 2004-06 and head coach at Coral Reef H.S. from 2002-03. He began his coaching career with stints as an assistant at La Progresiva Presbyterian School (offensive coordinator - 1992), Coral Gables H.S. (quarterbacks/wide receivers - 1993-96), Miami Northwestern H.S. (quarterbacks - 1998), Miami Central H.S. (offensive coordinator/quarterbacks - 1999-2000) and Miami Killian H.S. (offensive coordinator - 2001). As a high-school coach, he mentored Willis McGahee (Miami Central), who went on to be an all-America running back at the University of Miami and two-time NFL Pro Bowler.

A native of Miami, Ponce had a decorated playing career as a quarterback at Miami Senior, where he was team MVP, honorable-mention all-county and a finalist for the 1988 Miami Herald Hispanic Athlete of the Year award. He went on to be starting quarterback at Arizona Western College in 1989 and ‘90, where he earned an associate's degree in arts in 1990. He received a bachelor's degree in physical education from Florida International in 1997.

Ponce has two children: Frankie Jr. and Isabel.

Not my preferred pick, but a name to watch given previous relationship with Diaz and local ties. Decent pedigree but has never called his own plays.

I know we all want a homerun hire, but I just don't see that happening at Miami given their history of hiring ineptitude. What homerun hire would want to work for Diaz??? He's on the hot seat himself and he would be an inept boss. It would be like working for your mentally challenged little brother.

Anyways, here's hoping we at least hire someone from the right coaching tree. Salut!
