NC State Asst Coach Dwayne Ledford Nominated For Broyles Award

NC State Offensive Line Coach/Run Game Coordinator Dwayne Ledford was nominated for the Broyles Award yesterday, which has been awarded to the nations best assistant coach since 1996. Ledford was one of 56 coaches nominated out of roughly 1,500 assistant coaches.

What has Ledford done that’s worthy of praise?

He’s the creator of the Wolfpack’s Band of Brothers.

Wolfpack Quarterback Ryan Finley has been superb, but that’s because he has all day to throw. The Band of Brothers rank 11th in the NCAA in sacks allowed.

Before Nyheim Hines injured his ankle, he was leading the ACC in rushing as a first year starter. Who opens the holes? The Band of Brothers.

Who is the voice in their heads?

Dwayne Ledford.
