justafan Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I’ve heard a few people mention to me that when the season is over he is going to be Named SFA Head Football Coach. Has anyone else heard this? If this is true I bet he would get this program rolling fast. With all his ties to East Texas. Also if it happened it would snowball a few head coaching jobs to open. Tyler lee Gilmer maybe Waskom. Maybe Jacksonville. All have ties with Jeff. Could get interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle34 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I've also heard that SFA is looking at the A&M Commerce Coach that won the D2 National championship last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destry Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 If Chad would leave Arkansas and bring Traylor with him, what an impact that would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnjoyLife Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Wouldn't Traylor be taking a pretty sizable pay cut to go to SFA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gwbears24 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 He would be leaving a sec Fbs school to go to a Fcs school that isn't going to pay much more than Gilmer was paying him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnclePigg Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I’m going to go out on a limb and say Traylor probably makes around 400K at Arkansas. No way SFA can pay him anywhere close to that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PelvisPresley Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 yes he does make between $400k and 500 now. That's why I asked if SFA was paying half a million to $1mill a year and going to pay 5 to 6 assistants $150k to be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnclePigg Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 SFA can’t pay anywhere near 370 either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PelvisPresley Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 exactly, he'll get a Group of 5 head coach offer soon enough that will pay $1.5-3mill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PelvisPresley Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 as for not taking "HS coaches" with him for his staff? if he knows their knowledge and work ethic, plus it makes the staff a cohesive unit that he can sell to recruits and he can get everyone fired up, moving the same way...then "heck yes"!!!

Coach0001 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Wishful thinking from SFA fans money wise they cant touch him. Sam Houston Coach K.C. Keeler is the highest paid coach coach in the Southland Conf at around 300K SFA was paying the last guy like 185 to 190 They also seem to only want to spend money on basketball If they could hire the A-M Commerce coach that's a great hire for them he is solid. I would love to see him at SHSU 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 The A&M-Commerce coach would be more realistic than Traylor, but I don't think either scenario happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Traylor is associate HC at Arkansas. Do you do that a couple more years and then take a non Power 5 job, possibly a low to mid tier Power 5 school? Do you take the FCS route for the same possible result? Traylor would crush it at SFA. With his East Texas ties he could build a pretty darn good roster. Finances is another thing like Y’all mentioned. Do you take the pay cut to accelerate your shot at a high paying D1 HC job? Or do you stay on the path your on now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt he takes that kinda of paycut just to be the head guy. Exactly.. wouldn't make sense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking he (Jeff Traylor) would leave when Sonny Dykes gets canned at SMU sometime in the next couple years, and coaching the Mustangs would be his type of head coach position. It was a huge eff up when they didn't go ahead and grab him this time. The players and recruits wanted him and it was odd when they named him the interim and then made a different move.

PelvisPresley Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 He'd make it like "The U", no kid would get out of Dallas area without getting recruited to SMU...build a moat around DFW. Draw in all of East Texas' best! Soon you are like the Pony Express again, except run and gun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topher805 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Haven't heard he will be named the coach, but I have heard he is listening to what SFA is trying to sell him. There are A LOT of changes coming in the athletic department, specifically with their fundraising arm. I would LOVE to have him, but I just don't see it as realistic. Here are the names I have heard SFA fans throwing out... Carthel (A&M Commerce) Whitten (Tarleton) Surratt (Carthage) Harrell (UNT) Dan Enos (Alabama QB Coach) Curtis Luper (TCU RB Coach) Matt Moore (Troy OC/OL Coach) Kerwin Bell (Valdosta State) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
