Tim Bleil is entering his fifth season with the Lumberjack program as the assistant coach in charge of tight ends and as the recruiting coordinator. Bleil joins SFA from Lamar where he coached tight ends. Prior to his time at Lamar he had a three-year stint at Texas A&M Commerce under Coach Carthel where he worked with the running backs and receivers.
During the 2017 season under Bleil, Vincent Hobbs was named first-team all-conference. He finished the 2018 campaign as the Lone Star Conference’s fourth leading receiver and was a pivotal player in the team’s run to the NCAA Championship. Hobbs was one of two players – running back Carandal Hale – who was recognized by the league that season. Hale’s garnered honorable mention honors after averaging nearly 100 rushing yards per game. He also finished fourth in the LSC recording nearly 1,200 all-purpose yards. As a team the Lions recorded 17 rushing touchdowns and averaging nearly four yards per carry.
In 2016, Bleil coached Richard Cooper who led the Lone Star Conference in yards per carry and finished with 1,004 rushing yards. The team averaged 4.9 yards per rush attempt and averaged 147.6 rushing yards per game. Cooper was third in the conference in rushing yards and fourth in all-purpose yards. Under Bleil, Cooper was named first team All-LSC.
Bleil joined the Lions after successful stint as the receivers’ coach at West Virginia State. With Bleil on the staff, West Virginia State matched their 2011 through 2014 win totals with five wins in 2015.
There he coached Quiton Gray who led the league in receiving yards and receptions per game. Gray was named all-conference following the season.
