Colby Carthel begins his second year at the helm of the Lumberjack football program in 2020, looking to build on the progress made in his first season at the helm last season. The Texas native has made an immediate splash in the FCS recruiting world, as the Lumberjacks have compiled a Top-5 recruiting class in the FCS in each of the past two seasons, and nabbed the top FCS commit in each of those seasons. 
In Carthel's first season in Nacgdoches, the 'Jacks improved their win total by a game and had three athletes garner a total of four Southland All-Conference honors. Placekicker Storm Ruiz finished his superb career as a First Team All-Conference honoree, while Xavier Gipson and Willie Roberts, both freshmen, were named to All-Conference Third Team honors. Gipson also earned a place on the Third Team All-Conference Defensive Team as a kick returner. Introduction will be by Garrett Altier
