Today's episode is from our Quickcast series, a short podcast on a single topic. Today we focus on success in the red zone with John Pennington.

John Pennington enters his fourth year as the Head Coach at West Virginia State University in 2020.

Pennington was named head coach in the Spring of 2017 and promptly proceeded to lead the program to its first winning season in a decade.

In his first season as head coach, the Yellow Jackets hit statistical milestones that were unheard of prior to his arrival. They earned a No. 1 ranking in all of NCAA Division II in red zone offense by scoring 47 times out of 48 attempts. Additionally, his team ranked first in the Mountain East Conference (MEC) in completion percentage, third down conversions, and passing yards per game. They placed second in the MEC in total offense, first downs, and scoring per game.
