SFA names Jeff Byrd as interim football coach

Just 24 hours after suspending head coach Clint Conque, SFA has named an interim football coach.

NACOGDOCHES - On Monday, SFA suspended football head coach Clint Conque. On Tuesday, they named his replacement, at least on a temporary basis.

The school announced that Jeff Byrd will serve as the interim head coach. Byrd joined the Jacks last year as their defensive coordinator and added the title of assistant head coach back in March. He's spent the last 15 years of his career as a college defensive coach, with the last 5 coming at UT Martin.

Details are still scarce about what led to Conque's suspension. Byrd will meet the media for the first time on Wednesday afternoon and we'll have full coverage of that press conference online and on-air.
