Parents would move into the Gilmer district just to have their kids play for Traylor when he was there.

I think he would be a great hire but might be blinded just because I knew him when he was at Gilmer and always helped me out when I needed something for my previous job.

Not blinded. I think he would be an excellent hire and is the best candidate for the job. None other of the mentioned candidates would bring as much excitement to the program as Traylor.

When it comes to Traylor and this job, it is a matter of his career path and what he is wanting and on what timescale...

TallTexan, I am hoping for a quick announcement as well, however, on the Indeed job site, the application was posted on 11/27/2018. Is that to meet a formal requirement, or because none of our desired candidates wanted the job???

I am sure Ryan has his reasons but that makes me wonder why it is on indeed...

Typically by state law, all public positions must be posted. Even if there was one specific person in mind, jobs that are under a civil authority have to have a public posting before filling. There are usually very few constraints about how many applicants they must accept or consider. It can be filled immediately unless there is another requirement for the position that has to fill a quota (like equal employment obligations).

Yep, like Nacluth said, it's usually state law that it has to be publicly posted.

FWIW, I've never heard of a single college coach being hired by applying on a job board.

How do you post a picture?
nacluth
How long do you want to ignore this user?
To post a picture, it needs to be hosted on a third party image hosting site. I use postimages.org. You do not need an account, but if you make one you can save your pictures there.
1.) Anyway upload your picture there.
2.) After uploading, it will give you several options of links to share. Copy the Direct Link.
3.) On Sawmill desktop site, reply and click the picture icon and fill in the supplied box with your link.
4.) On Sawmill mobile you need to include the forum code: [img] paste direct link here [/img]

Hope that's simple enough.

Except he is in his second season coaching at Southern Miss in Hattiesburg, MS.

Kendal Briles leveraged the Texas State interest for a raise and a contract extension at UH.

I honestly thought he'd be the hire. Honestly, was surprised they could even pull someone on the level of Spav or Briles. Thought for sure someone like Keeler would be their best bet.

I didn't realize he went 175-26 in 201 games as a head coach. Dude is a champion. Imagine if he can turn SFA into that kind of giant.

I'd love to see what Traylor or Walden could do on offense. Tamrick deserves atleast one season in a high quality offense.

Honestly if the guys buy in immediately to Traylor, we could be the surprise team next season. I'd hate to say, the UIW of next year.

Seriously, take a gander at some of these results.

What offense does he run?

I've never watched it in person, but it's spread to run.

This article covers it in great detail:
http://insidetexas.com/inside-the-gameplan-what-traylor-brings-to-ut/

When looking at the Gilmer stats from Traylor's time. They were averaging about 8 yards per carry, with nearly a 50/50 mix for Run/Pass total yardage.

"Quarterback McLane Carter was a worthy high school starter but the kid was hardly a D-1 talent and yet threw for 3969 yards with 47 touchdowns and two interceptions. How? Because Traylor manufactured easy ways for him to throw the ball to targets that included Kris Boyd and Blake Lynch."

Jake Blumrick for Walter Payton?

I like hearing this. It makes it to where you're not screwed if something happens to your superstar QB, you can still survive with a backup.

Also important to note that Traylor is likely familiar with Covey's skillset from his time at Texas.

True. He likes the wildcat so if Covey isn't the starter next year he'll definitely have a bigger role in the offense.

Coaching salaries have gotten ridiculous. My opinion.

Jeff Brohm: Quite a while back we reported that Purdue was going aggressive to keep Brohm. Tonight, Pat Forde is reporting that Purdue is "believed to have sweetened Brohm's current $4 million per-year deal to as much as $6 million annually, while offering incentives to stay." Forde added that Louisville's offer was walked up to $5 million per year.

Completely agree 76. This amount of $$$ for college coaches is absurd. Maybe that's one reason we are seeing stories about college football attendance being down. Could be that the next generation will see better uses for $$$.

Kind of disappointed in the process. In 2014 I was chosen as an honorary defensive coach in the Spring game and they let me call three plays which were highly successful I might add. In fact, so successful I don't think they've done that honorary coach promotion since. Since then, I've been calling all the correct plays from row 44, seat 28, yet not once has Ivey contacted me. I beginning to believe there's a Louisiana bias involved.

Kind of reminds me of Keller and Underwood's backgrounds. Some lower division HC experience, career assistant at all the schools you'd want to see for a coach, NFL internship, etc.

I know we've all been thinking about someone with Texas ties, but if we paired a strong Texas staff with a Louisiana head coach, or vice versa, we could really bring some good athletes to Nac.

I don't disagree, however our last HC from Louisiana did not work out so good.

Stephen F. Austin (FCS TX): Arkansas running backs coach Jeff Traylor is interviewing this week for the head job tweets Adam Rittenberg. Tuesday we wrote about Traylor and other candidates for the job. Rittenberg adds that Mississippi State defensive analyst Van Malone (former SMU DC) has interviewed for the job as well.

Man, we're attracting a lot more attention for this role than I would have guessed.

Without hearing names, I had heard that we have several really good candidates. The interest just has to be due to the positives coming out of SFA post Ivey hiring. It certainly is not due to our football history.

Good point, although he left years ago so we don't really claim him.
