Arkansas State Hires New Coach
April 2, 2008
Season Report Posted: April 03, 2009 01:40
Arkansas State has just hired Texas Tech's Wide Receiver's Coach to be the new head coach.
After the tragic automobile accident involving Coach Edwards stunned Red Wolves Nation earlier this year, the AD has looked towards a young charismatic coach to take over the reigns at Arkansas State.
Coach Wright has only coached receivers at Tech for one season, but he's a walking almanac of football knowledge when it comes to the gridiron.
He'll be tested early and often, as a coach, as a recruiter, and as an icon for Red Wolves Football.
