That makes sense now Porkmeister. I didn't see that Ray was a Sam Houston State fan.

I think this a great hire for SFA. Conque is a proven winner.

No Problem NC, I think Conque will turn SFA around quickly. He knows the Southland, and runs an offense that is fun to watch. I'm not looking forward to UCA playing them every year.

Ken Collums - played against him when he was the QB at UCA.

I'm really excited to see what he can do with more resources. Mother is a SFA alum so we were pretty excited for this hire.

Anyone have any info about how large a raise he's getting?

Looks like UCA will hire Abilene Christian HC and former UCA QB Ken Collums

Actually, I'm a Razorback fan - raised in Conway, UofA grad, etc. I'm matriculating at Sam, however.

Conque received a nice pay raise (to about $200,000) per year, but I don’t think that was the primary issue



quote:

A major sticking point in recent years is that UCA has been on the lower echelon among Southland Conference schools in pay to assistant coaches.



quote:

When people asked him the last couple of years about what can be done to enhance the program, his first response was to make life financially better for his assistant coaches.

Wow, didn't see that coming at all. Cinque has built a solid program up in Conway. Didn't he play ball at UCA.

Here's our new coach:

quote:

CONWAY, Ark. _ It took less than a week for the University of Central Arkansas to find its new head football coach.

Steve Campbell will be introduced at a 1 p.m. Friday news conference as the new Bears coach, inheriting a program that has won two Southland Conference titles, made two FCS Playoff appearances and had three seasons of at least nine victories since moving to NCAA Division I in 2006. Campbell replaces Clint Conque, who resigned last Friday after 14 seasons at UCA.

Campbell, who comes to UCA from a highly successful 10-year stint at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, brings to Conway a resume that features three national championships as a player or coach. He has experience in the Southeastern Conference, in the Southland Conference as a player and coach and a rich background in the talent-laden Mississippi junior college ranks.
