History
Duster era (2021)
Former Syracuse Orange Head coach Duster was signed on to become the first HC of the Arkansas State Red Wolves prior to their inaugural 2021 Season. While expectation may have been low for this 1st year team, they still managed a 5-7 record under Duster, going 5-3 in conference after an 0-4 out of conference start and just missing out on a bowl berth. Following the season Duster left the program, leaving open the door for Youngdunc15 to step in.
Youngdunc15 era (2021-Present)
Following the departure of Duster from the program, the Red Wolves decided to look young and picked up 1st year Head Coach Youngdunc15, citing his relative youth and bountiful sporadic energy as needs in the program. His impact was noted right away as the Red Wolves signed 30 recruits before he even was hired, finishing with the 109th best class in the country.
