Sam Houston abandoned their arch-rivals Stephen F. Austin when they moved up to FBS. SFA is probably the best team in FCS this season, and Sam Houston may very well be the worst in FBS.

Big time ball player! More importantly, Dimo is an unbelievable person, teammate, and leader with unmatched work ethic. EARNED, not given!
WELL DESERVED 💜 Gerard Edimo will proudly wear the #16 jersey today in honor of Cally Belcher, carrying forward the memory, strength, and spirit of a Lumberjack who will forever be our #16. #AxeEm x #EastTexasTough

.@CoachMutz appreciation post. 🗣️ The @GSAthletics_FB defense is giving up only 15.5 PPG in league play. 22 sacks on defense — 10 more than all of last year in 5 less games so far. 50 TFL (top 30 in the FBS) including 22 in 4 @SunBelt games. Wreaking havoc on defense! 👏

My absolute favorite about this play is not the first down - it was the reaction my teammates had to bring me up after - just one of my favorite plays this season that we were able to get on film! #football #Recruiting @CoachG_Rushing

Interesting fact: A high school football game has 48 minutes on the clock. But a study found the average play lasts just 5.6 seconds. At 130 plays, that’s roughly 12 minutes of actual action between BOTH teams. Months in the weight room. Summer heat. Film. Practice. All for opportunities measured in literal seconds. And you don’t know which 5.6 seconds will decide the game. That backside block you took off? The pursuit you cut short because somebody else would get him? That might’ve been it.

Just had a student-athlete receive his second college scholarship offer. Our head coach spoke with the college coach, and these were the questions they asked: • How is his home life? • How are his academics? • How is he in the weight room? • Is he coachable? • Does he pick up on concepts? • Are his parents a problem? • Is he a complainer? • Does he run track? • What is his legitimate size? Not one question about his stats. Not a single one. College coaches are evaluating the whole person. Character. Family. Academics. Work ethic. Coachability. Football IQ. Physical development. Attitude. The scoreboard matters. The film matters. The production matters. But when a college coach is deciding whether they want to invest in a young man for the next four years, who he is matters just as much as what he does on Friday night. That’s why we talk so much about building the person, not just the player. The game may get you noticed. Your character determines what happens next. @CoachJonWheeler

I’m extremely blessed to coach the players that I coach and to work alongside this amazing staff each day!

John Harbaugh: “If you’re a position coach, individual period is your time to shine.” No long lines. Get players reps. Work on what matters. Build drills around the skills your players will actually need on game day. Be thoughtful. Be creative. Be imaginative. @HarbaughCoach
