Harleton has gone 6-6,2-8,1-9,1-9 under ward is what i was told. Many factors go into a won-lost record, offense,defense, assistants, who calls plays, and athletes for sure. Cant blame it all on the head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way the head man is accountable for it, that's why they pay them the most. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whynotgoforit Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 The coach that took New Diana 4 rounds deep 2017 won 5 states championships as an assistant other places. He left the state and may be willing to come back to TX if the price is right. I've heard people say they great things about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambo Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 I’ll come over there and coach. 1 year as a HC and 1 year as a DC. My 5-6 grave boys weren’t big or fast but they’d hit you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrongly and I think the pg coach is Josh Gibson? Drennen won at Mineola and is now at Hallsville.

I think his coaching style and proclivity on both sides of the ball would translate well to the FCS level. And we all know he would recruit well. Not sure Traylor is leaving Arkansas right now. I think he has his sights set on bigger and better things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he has his sights set on bigger and better things. I agree on Traylor, but if he is willing to listen, I think it wouldn't hurt to try... Surratt is actually my favorite candidate out there for the job. I know people like Whitten (Tarleton), Carthel (A&M-Commerce), Harrell (UNT), but I really like the east Texas flair and his resume. His name carries a lot of weight in east Texas, and he could kill it on the recruiting trail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only people that want to play at SFA are the ones not good enough for the bigger schools, I doubt its that hard to recruit the kids when SFA is the only offer they are getting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are competing aginst Sam Houston, McNeese State, Nicholls, Lamar, and Lousiana Tech and Southern Arkansas to a lesser extent. If you have great East Texas ties (to High School Coaches) then you should be able to get some of these kids to come to SFA (they do in Basketball). It only takes one or two great recruiting classes and some success on the field to turn the tide. You start beating Sam on a regular basis and you are ahead of the game. You can win a FCS National Championship at SFA if you do it right. Now with that being said, we all have to realize the new Athletic Director at SFA came from TAMU-Commerce.

When you look at SFA's roster, they have about 10 local kids and the rest are nearly all from Houston and Dallas. The locals on the roster are mainly kids that have transferred back. I've heard rumors that they don't like recruiting local talent for some reason. I've always believed that you could put a heckuva team together recruiting players in the area between Tyler and Lufkin. The lack of East Texas players and SFA's lack of success has killed interest in the program. What they are doing now isn't working, let's try something different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
