Defensive Coordinator - Jeff Byrd (Southern Mississippi 1989) First Season at SFA

Jeff Byrd is in his first season as the Lumberjacks' defensive coordinators, overseeing SFA's overall defensive scheme with specific responsibilities for the Lumberjack linebackers.

A coaching veteran known for aggressive defensive play, Byrd has spent the last 14 seasons in the defensive coordinator role, coming to Nacogdoches after spending the last five seasons at Tennessee-Martin.

During his five seasons at UT-Martin, Byrd was part of a Skyhawk staff which registered an overall record of 35-23, holding opponents to less than 30 points per game in four of those five seasons. UT-Martin also earned a reputation as one of the top defensive teams in the Ohio Valley Conference, ranking among the league’s leader in total defense in each of his five seasons.

Byrd’s 2016 UT-Martin defense was one of the best not only in the OVC but nationally as well. The Skyhawks allowed just 24 points per game, ranking second in the conference and 17th nationally, limiting opponents to 128.3 rushing yards and 194.1 passing yards, both second in the conference behind top-five team Jacksonville State.

Where UT-Martin really made its mark was on turnovers, ranking seventh nationally with 28 takeaways in 2016. The Skyhawks registered 17 interceptions and 11 fumble recoveries, scoring six defensive touchdowns on the season, second only to New Hampshire’s seven on a national level.

During his time in Tennessee, Byrd mentored over a dozen All-OVC performers, including All-Americans Tony Bell and Ben Johnson. Bell earned All-America honors in both 2013 and 2014, setting a school record with 22.5 sacks , while Johnson led the OVC in tackles, sacks and tackles for loss in 2013.

Prior to joining the staff at UT-Martin, Byrd spent three seasons at Arkansas Tech, serving as the Wonder Boys’ defensive coordinator from 2009 to 2011. Byrd’s defense ranked in the top-25 nationally in back-to-back seasons, allowing just 86.4 rushing yards per game in 2009.

Byrd spent four seasons as the defensive coordinator at Southern Arkansas from 2005 to 2008, coaching 13 All-Gulf South Conference performers during that span. Under his leadership, the Muleriders were one of the nation’s best against the rush, finishing 18th nationally in 2008 allowing just 96.8 yards per game.

His first stint as a defensive coordinator came at Northwest Mississippi College, spending two seasons with the Rangers from 2003 to 2004. Byrd’s tough defensive scheme helped Northwest Mississippi rank fourth nationally in 2003, allowing just 71.6 rushing yards per game and just 212 total yards per game in 2004.

Byrd’s collegiate coaching career also includes stops at Mars Hill College in North Carolina (2000-02), serving as the school’s co-offensive coordinator, as well as at Delta State (2000) where he served as a graduate assistant for the Statesmen. Byrd was an assistant football coach at Washington High School in Greenville, Mississippi, from 1994 to 1998, spending one season as the head coach, principal and athletic director at Bayou Academy in Cleveland, Mississippi, in 1999.

A native of Southaven, Mississippi, Byrd was a three-year letterwinner at center for Southern Mississippi and was a member of the Golden Eagles’ 1988 Indepencence Bowl championship team. He earned his bachelor’s degree from Southern Miss in 1989, followed by his master’s degree in education from Delta State in 2005.

Byrd has a son, Scott, and two daughters, Kris and Mary Katelyn.
