He's certainly well-traveled. Never seems to spend more than one year at a school. Rent-A-Coach?

Yes sir that is what the college coaching market has gone to. 1 yr deals and if your good you might might just get a 2 yr deal.. If the players can move around so can the asst coaches.. We are lucky Carthel is very well respected in the coaching profession and we will always have some good up and coming coaches. They may not last long but they will go on to another school that 99% of the time just pays better than we can afford at SFA. I am sure all schools are deal with this not just us..

Very for grateful for my time in Pueblo. The relationships created here will last a lifetime. I can’t wait to see what’s to come for Steel City!

Excited for the next chapter in the Piney Woods as the WR Coach at SFA! Big things happening in ETX!!!! Let’s goooo!!! Axe ‘Em pic.twitter.com/OslptXcVeD

Add one, then lose one.

Thanks so much to Coach Carthel and Coach Mutz for allowing me to be a part of the SFA family! Beyond grateful to all the players for the opportunity to serve them! It’s all about relationships and I know those will last a lifetime! God Bless! pic.twitter.com/HoJN9kRHqt

Bummer. Maybe some structure will be put around the transfer portal. Not likely.

SFA Jack Fanatic said:

---

Many NCAA programs are nixing spring games now. With the transfer portal out of control, they don't want other schools scouting their players and then picking off some low hanging fruit via the portal.

Is SFA scheduled to have a spring game? Personally, I hope not, for the reason above.

---

Yeah. The spring game was supposed to be exciting for the players to get out in front of the fans again but I can be easily replaced with a closed scrimmage.

I guess Carthel isn't worried about poaching.

It sucks for the fans but it's probably been helpful that the spring game hasn't been televised in a few years now. Unless they already have one of our players they really want, they aren't going to take the trip to Nacogdoches to scout our spring game.

Shame Q only had one year with us. With his injury history I worry about his chances, but if he does get a chance, he can make waves. Has all the skills to be a solid 3rd down or situational back in the league.

4.4 spd. at RB will get him some attention.

The #GraylanSpringGame is on! Mark your calendars and don’t miss your first chance to see the 2025 @SFA_Football team in action! They’re building something special, so make sure you’re there every step of the way! #AxeEm #RaiseTheAxe https://t.co/Ucjza3kJqI
