Team History

In 2015 they began playing at the FCS level, and this past season was their first year in the FBS. They won 3 conference titles in the FCS, however struggled with a 2-10 season in their first year at the highest level. New coach Jerry Mack has a long history coaching in college and comes from the NFL, we'll see if he has what it takes to steer the ship back in the right direction.

Quick Facts

Peak of Program

From 2017 to 2019 they went three straight seasons where they won a game in the FCS playoffs.

Rock Bottom

Hard to say, they were never too bad in the FCS. And its hard to call your first year at a new (higher) level a rock bottom.

Best Ever Player

Chandler Burks (QB, 2015-2018): The programs first ever recruit. The 2017 conference offensive player of the year.

Best Ever Coach

Brian Bohannon (2013-2024): The only coach this program has ever known, a bold move letting him go after his first crack at the FBS.
